Advertising Policies

• Discounts are available for placement of advertising in multiple issues as follows: a 10% discount will
be assessed for ads placed in 6-10 consecutive issues or in at least 6 issues within a year; a 20% discount
will apply for ads placed in 11 consecutive issues. All other ads placed in multiple issues will be assessed
at the regular monthly rate.

• All new ads must be prepaid, taking into consideration any subsequent issue discount – no exceptions.
For example, an advertiser takes out an 11-consecutive-issue business card sized ad; the advertiser must
pay $27.50 times 11 issues times .8 (20% discount) = $242 before his first month’s ad will be published.

• No special rates are available for non-profit organizations.

• Legal notices will be assessed at the same rate as classified ads.

• The advertiser is responsible for getting any ads or changes to ads to the production manager prior to
publication, by the deadline of the 15th of the month; otherwise, the previous month’s ad will be used.

• The assessed rate for requests for ad placement on a particular page is an additional 15%, the back page
carries a 25% premium but is not available for placement of full page ads.

• Ads which require Gazette production staff assistance or which vary in text monthly may be assessed an
additional fee.
