Formats: Inside Bluegrass is published electronically and does not accept camera-ready ads. If you wish to submit an ad you must either have the editor typeset it for you (a large assortment of fonts and clip art are available) or you must submit in electronic form (TIFF or EPS files only). There is normally no charge for typesetting ads. Please check with the editor before submitting ads in electronic form.

Placing an ad: Ads are accepted by telephone, electronic mail, or hard copy. However, only ads submitted electronically or by hard copy are guaranteed. If an ad is submitted by telephone and the ad contains an error the advertiser is still liable for the full price of the ad.

Please contact Inside Bluegrass editor Bob Waltz to submit an ad or for more information on formats for advertising. You may write him directly at waltzmn@skypoint.com or call at 651-489-1930.

Deadlines: The deadline for submission is the first day of the month prior to publication. For example, an ad for publication in the March issue (March 1st delivery date) must be submitted to the editor by February 1st.

Discounts: Run three ads in a calendar year and receive a 12.5% discount. Run six ads in a calendar year and receive a 25% discount.

*To obtain the volume discount on your initial ads (1st & 2nd for 3 ad discount and 4th & 5th for 6 ad discount) you must place an order for three or six ads respectively. Otherwise the discount will apply to the third and subsequent ads and the sixth and subsequent ads only.

**Business card size ads are available as a six month package only and volume discounts do not apply.
