Leader,
the idea that they couldn't afford it is ridiculous, or at least when we have a good coaching directory will be. people are charging >$100/hr on avg for coaching, which means that omg, like 15 minutes of their coaching time goes to pay for one ad.

Well I wasn't referring just to coaching. Most coaches could afford a $25 ad or even $200 ad. The problem is that if the price for the top is anything close to that there'll be a line a mile long for the spot unless the list is basically hidden and gets little traffic. If you raise the price in relation to demand, it will be far to expensive for coaches like me to buy the higher slots as I don't charge anything close to 100/hour. Also in the end, I don't think allowing location ads reduces the likelihood that coaches will purchase spots on the list.
I'm not trying to paint coaches or bloggers as victims here. They certainly aren't entitled to advertise in there location here. I just think the benefits out way the annoyances.
