ADVERTISING
The basic advertising package is with advertisers to whom we offer exposure from three to twelve months (short-term advertisers click here).
Assistance with the design and make-up of the print advert, monthly changes to the advert (if required), prime position placement in the publication, preferable payment terms, free inserts on the ‘What’s On’ page, social media broadcasts on twitter and facebook and, most importantly, free, personally-written editorial exposure is all included in the price (per advert) below.
All standard advertising packages are subject to a signed contract (download here). To have a representative from The Month contact you, please call either David Foster on 084 8273986 or Brett Garner on 083 2600453 and we will arrange a visit.
