2016 APA Handbook Ads

2016 APA Handbook Ad
It's that time again!

Last year, we put together three pages of ads - can we do better than that this year?

The prices have gone up a bit - a full page b&w club page is $120 this year.  The Club buys the pages that we can fill and only charge you what it is actually costing us for the page.  So our members get ads in the Handbook and get the discounted Club page price!

So, here's the breakdown:

Full page, 4.5" x 7.5" - $120

Half page, 4.5" x 3.25" - $60

Quarter page, 4.5"x 1.875" - $30

Eighth page, 2.25"x1.875" - $15

Deadline for getting ads to me is 3/15/16 - ads received after this date will not be included. Our deadline for getting the total page layouts to APA is 4/1 and it takes time to lay out all the pages.

If there is enough interest to fill a color page, we can get a full page color for $225 and divide it up among those who want it. Note: we must have enough paid ads for one full page.

You can pay by check, or I can invoice you via paypal - just let me know which you prefer when you send your ad in.  If you don't have a layout, just send in the information you want included and I'll do the layout for you.

Email your ad copy and size requested to me at info@ameraucana.org

Here are the three pages that went into the APA yearbook for 2015.  We have a few people that are interested in a color page, too - if we have enough to fill a page, then we can do a color page, or two if enough people are interested. :)

Ernie, we have enough, if you do a quarter page, to do one full color page.

I'll be finishing up the newsletter today and tomorrow (it is a big one!), then start working on the ads for APA/ABA.

Thanks everyone!

Ok, APA announced that they were about sold out of full page color ads, so I reserved one of the few remaining pages.  I think we have enough to fill that page, plus some...but I'll be working on that next week.

If you haven't already gotten your ad or ads into me, please be sure to get them in by mid-week! Deadline for APA is fast approaching and I'm already behind the eight ball.

I'll invoice everyone in Paypal next week, as well.  You can send a check or just click and pay via paypal - If you send a check, please be sure to mark on it what it is for.

Thanks, everyone

Last chance to get your ad for the 2016 APA yearbook in! I'm laying the ads out now and will be submitting them to APA by the first of the week.

Hi Don

I should add, that prices are a bit lower since the APA is requiring that each page have the Club header - which takes up about an inch across the top, so I've re-calculated the costs.  The new costs are:

Color - quarter page $47

B&W - 1/6 page - $17, 1/4 page - $25, 1/2 page - $50, and full page - $100.

But - I need your ad info ASAP!

This is the required club page layout - (Note: we do not have to have individual ads the specific size of the $20 squares shown below - we can divide that up however we like, but we must have the header across the top)

The ads for the 2016 APA Yearbook have been sent.  We ended up with two black & white pages and one color page.  Had to fill some space in one of the b&w ads, so I put a blurb about the club.

Here are the pages:
