Reserving Ad Space
We allow advertisers on a first come, first served basis until we have
reached our limit of ads for that month. Please note that our ad
spaces are sold out a few months in advance. Please allow 1 week for us
to get back to your request.
To reserve space:
- Download
and fill in the Ad Reservation Form
and email the form to us at advertising@ggmg.org.
- Once we
confirm there is space available for the requested months, you will
receive an invoice via e-mail requesting payment. Please make all
checks payable to GGMG and in the reference section note your company
name, size of ad and month(s) reserved. Note that payment must be
received no later than the artwork due date OR within 30 days of
receiving the invoice, whichever is first. If payment has not been
received in a timely manner, we reserve the right to let your space go
to another paid advertiser.
Most months
we sell out of ad space, so we encourage advertisers to reserve space
as early as possible. Ads can be placed one month at a time, for three
consecutive months at a time, or a selection of months throughout the
year. After the 3rd month, we require at least a one-month break to
allow advertisers on our waiting list an opportunity to place an ad.
You can reserve up to 6 ads at one time.
Your
reservation is not final until we receive your check. We'll generally
hold your reservation for two weeks from the date you place the
reservation, to give you time to mail the check. If we do not receive
your payment within two weeks, we may give your space to another
advertiser. Given our large volume of inquiries, we cannot guarantee
that we will notify you before releasing your reservation to another
advertiser. We will notify you when we receive the check, so please let
us know if you have not received confirmation for your payment. We do
not accept online or credit card payments at this time.
