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 enter into our fifth 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 1,200 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 25,000 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. This time of the year, we are distributing
directly at events, swelling readership to an estimated 25,000 a month. With our new Blue Monday Monthly on line website getting
an average of 380 hits a day, your ad is seen by a HUGE audience even beyond our hard copy distribution. My weekly
e-mail blast has over 400 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.
