When is the email sent?
Every Monday morning. Your ad is in every issue of the months you book, once we’ve approved it.
How is the price set?
By the size of the list on the day you book. Today that’s $250 a placement a month. The rate holds for every month you pay for.
Can I book several months?
Up to 3 at a time, as far as the open months go.
What if the month has already started?
You pay for the issues still ahead, and the booking page shows the adjusted total.
Will my rate change after I pay?
Not for the months you paid for. A later booking uses the rate the list is at then.

Your business name, a picture or your logo (16:9, 800 by 450 pixels, under 500 KB), a headline (up to 60 characters), a short message (up to 150), and a link. We look at every ad before it runs.
Can I send my own email to your list?

Do I need an account?
