Before the internet was used by the majority, I was inspired by the size of the Toronto Star Classified section in '94 & developed a short newsletter while attending Huron Heights High in Newmarket, ON.Trade Post Classifieds were intended to give students & staff a way to trade items & cash with each other while I made a small profit by selling the concept, collecting ad chits from a central location, designing the layout, writing short articles, arranging offset printing (had to make it "camera ready" by doing my own colour separation) & selling display ads (cold calls) to local student-focused businesses.The Students Council were paid to distribute the Trade Post to each councillors homeroom.The venture went well until I was hospitalized for 4 weeks when diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes.
