What a placement actually is

Not a banner. Nobody clicks banners. Your placement is a short written section inside the issue, in the same voice as the rest of it, with a real photo from your business and a link to wherever you want people to go.

We write it. You approve it. If you tell us something in person that contradicts what is on your website, we use your version, because you know your business and the website is usually two years old.

Why the open rate matters more than the list size

Five thousand subscribers who open is worth more than fifty thousand who do not. Our issues run above thirty percent, which is roughly double the industry average, because the content is genuinely local and people opted in for it rather than being bought.

That number is also the one to ask any other local publication about. Most will tell you their list size and change the subject.

Who this works for

Home services, trades, restaurants, professional services and anyone whose customers are within a fifteen minute drive. Roofers, plumbers, cleaners, attorneys, agents, gyms, restaurants.

It works less well for businesses selling to the whole state or the whole country. If that is you, the ad management side is the better fit.

Questions we get

Do you write the copy?

Yes. We write it, you approve it before it sends.

Can I pick which day I run?

Yes. Advertisers are assigned to the Tuesday or Friday roster, and we tell you which issue you are in.

Is there a contract?

No. Month to month, cancel whenever.

Do you use AI images?

No. Real photos, usually from your own business.
