Tell Your Story - New Advertisers

3rd Annual 2008-2009 GIVING GUIDE of
Nonprofits, Foundations and Culturals

Now in its third year and growing, the Giving Guide is an opportunity to tell your story to nearly 15,000 paid weekly subscribers of the Denver Business Journal. Our subscribers have the time, money and desire to give to organizations such as yours.

The 2008-2009 edition of the Giving Guide will publish November 28. All paid subscribers receive a copy along with their subscription. Additionally, the book is distributed at DBJ events throughout the year including Fastest Growing Private Companies, Champions in Healthcare, Top Public Companies and our BizMix networking events.

Your Giving Guide commitment includes two full pages in the book. This year, the book will be printed on bright white paper, with color available. This means you and your sponsor will have the option of running your full page ad in color. Our rate card rate for two full pages is $13,900. The Denver Business Journal will underwrite nearly 80% of the cost, making your two-page spread only $2,950. If you choose to run your full page ad in color, please add $695 to the cost of your spread.

The Giving Guide gives you and your sponsoring company a year's worth of advertising for the cost of a ¼ page ad in the DBJ. This allows you to reach our readership and tell your story for a fraction of the cost.

How to Participate:

We have the ability to make one set of minor corrections so please make sure your copy has been proofed by everyone in your organization and is ready for publishing when sent. There may be additional charges if significant copy changes are necessary. Please submitt your corrections in written form, numbered, one line per correction.

The right side of the spread is space for a full page ad, 10.25 (w) x 14 (h). Digital specifications will be sent upon receipt of contract. All full page ads need to be sent print-ready.
