The small theatre as well as the large theatre can find the use of AD-VANCE TRAILERS a profitable service, worthy of its investment. It has been proven that this sort of advertising brings back your patrons for every change of program in your theatre. Are you selling them the coming attractions with worthwhile trailers or are you letting your patrons gaze upon an old fashioned message?
