Blue
Monday Monthly is the only blues music and entertainment oriented regional publication based out of Minnesota. Our hallmark
is vivid and colorful artist performance photos. Our mission statement and goal is to support and promote live blues, the
artists and venues that present this original, all American art form. Our promise to our supporters, readers and advertisers
is that we will always be printed and distributed by the first Monday of the month. We have never failed in that promise
as we roll thru our seventh year. We further provide the guarantee to our advertisers that if we fail to uphold that standard
we have set, their ad is free.
We are distributed at over 250 locations for free pick up
in Minnesota; Iowa, Wisconsin, as well as Lincoln and Omaha Nebraska, St. Louis Missouri, Clarksdale Mississippi and Memphis
Tennessee. Each month we mail out over 2,500 issues directly to our growing and active paid subscribers list. During the festival
season we distribute free to attendees on a one to one basis, swelling readership to over 50,000 per month. This includes,
but is not limited to Bayfront Blues Festival, Prairie Dog Blues Festival, Mississippi Valley Blues Festival, Upper Mississippi
Shakedown, Famous Dave’s Fest at Peavey Plaza, Hambone Blues Fest, ect.
Our rates
are the lowest you will find anywhere. Our added value to our advertisers have made us the biggest bang for your buck you
will find anywhere. With our new Blue Monday Monthly on line website getting an average of 38,000 visitors a month,
your ad is seen by a HUGE audience even beyond our hard copy distribution. My weekly e-mail blast has over 7,800 subscribers
and is growing daily. Links to your site on both of these vehicles provide the opportunity to greatly promote your site and
increase your customer base. Premier advertisers get the added advantage of a customized radio show promoting your event and
the artists featured; broadcast thruout So. Minn and on the internet at www.boundarywatersradio.com three days a week. Simply
put: we are the cheapest and most effective way to reach and expand your target audience.
Our
readership is targeted, specific and wide spread. The value and exposure we provide significantly exceeds daily newspapers
and radio inserts. Please Contact John Hammer for a current rate quote. Deadline is the 20th of the month. Ads need to be
submitted camera ready as commercial print quality PDF's or JPEGs of 300dpi or more. Layout can be done for an additional
price of $25.00 each ad.
