Main Street Media is a specialty media advertising company, offering low cost, high exposure advertising to businesses. Some of the advertising media they produce:

  • Advertiser fees pay for an ad space on restaurant tumblers and coffee mugs for pennies a day. The tumblers or mugs are presented to restaurants free of charge; they are under contract to use the vessels for a year.
  • Vinyl phone book covers
  • Community message boards with ads under glass left and right
  • Tabletop Trivia displays
  • Restaurant menu publications
  • Cartoon maps
  • Golf score cards
  • Grocery or convenience store register tapes

CreateSource developed Main Street Media's web site as a point of contact for prospective clients and businesses. You will also find Main Street Media in this web site's Logo Design and Print Media categories, as we frequently design and layout their printing projects.

Often in advertising a publisher is presented with a prototype or a poor original, such as a business card, from which to produce camera-ready art. CreateSource is tasked with producing presentable print-ready graphics and artwork from poor originals, as well as photographing prototype items.
