Maryland's public schools were named #1 in the country for the fourth year in a row by Education Week Magazine. I'd like to thank our students, parents and educators for continuing to achieve at unprecedented levels.

 
From the early days of our Administration, job creation--and its primary ingredient, education--has topped our agenda. Together, during recessionary times, even as we've cut $6.8 billion in state spending, we've made record investments in K-12 public schools.

Next week, we'll be releasing our proposed FY2013 budget and I can tell you one thing for certain: Maryland's schools will remain a top priority.

Together, we'll continue to build world-class institutions of learning that prepare our children for the challenges of tomorrow.

Would your business benefit from more consumers?

InLineAdz has set up a economic stimulation program for local businesses like yours. Advertising is not enough if the consumers do not know who you are. Businesses must Brand themselves and be well known in the community for advertising to work.

Branding is what InLineAdz can do for you at a cost of about the same as your cup of coffee per day. We have screens in both Sneade's Ace Home Centers as well as the first screen in the state which is Roland's Grocery store. The exposure for all 3 screens is about 3,000 local consumers per day. Could your business use that kind of exposure?    

With packages starting at $800.00 per year how can you not look into this? Please feel free to contact me at bruce.powers@inlineadz.com or call me at 410-474-0410. Let's make 2012 your year to add consumers to your business. Thank you, Bruce Powers
