Journal Advertising Info

Getting started is quite easy. Just see the simple steps below.

1) Decide on the SIZE of the ad you want. See the options shown at the bottom of these directions.

2) Decide on the words and layout that you would like in your ad.

3) Decide on the number of months to run your ad. A six month placement will earn you a full 25% discount (and a 7th and 8th month free for new advertisers). Nearly all of our advertisers take advantage of the six month offer and receive the 25% discount! New advertisers ... you can pay in two installments when ordering a half or full page ad. If interested in a monthly ad cost, please call for pricing.

Then, just call us! If you would like us to produce your ad, we'll put you in contact with the printer and can work direct with them for your design. You will be responsible for their services in setting up your ad.

For new advertisers, there is a two-month-free bonus with a six-month sign-up. (To be considered a "new" advertiser, you must not have advertised for more than 18 months in the Journal.)

Placement of ads is at the discretion of the editor, or Preferred Placement has a 10% additional charge to the listed price.

There can be a charge for ad development; however, this is an "outside" cost from the printer when applicable. The CPPC derives no profit from this service and is done direct with the printer when needed. Minor edits can be subject to fee if an outside service is needed for the update.

Web Advertising: With any Journal Ad, you can also advertise on the web with a 50% reduction in cost from the posted web advertising price rates
