1000 or thousands. Not 1000s. (Or 1000’s, or 1000s’).

If the text is in same place as where the business can be featured:

Feature your business here and reach thousands of people every week.

Advertise your business here and reach thousands of people every week.

So should it be...

D. thousand's
or
E. thousands'

There was only ONE post when she said that. Not dozens.

I agree with everyone else. It's a terrible sentence in the first place. Use words instead of numerals.
