Founding Advertiser — Category Lock

Lock Your Category. Lock Your Rate. Be the Only One in Your Town.

Founding Advertisers commit to 3, 6, or 10 editions — and in return, your rate is guaranteed for the full term, your editorial profile appears in every issue you're in, and no competitor in your category can buy your town while you're active. This is the long game: category ownership, not a coupon. Buy 10 and we add a bonus edition (print) or 2 bonus editions (web) on the house.

Click a package to jump to the builder — pick your towns, your product, and go straight to checkout.

Not ready today?

Get the Founding Advertiser brief by email.

Pricing, sample issues, category-availability updates by town. No spam — one email when your category opens, and the monthly Gazette publisher's note. Unsubscribe any time.

Three things only Founders get.

Everyone gets the same Gazette and Town Card products. Founders get three things on top — and they keep them as long as they stay active.

🔒

Rate Locked for Your Full Term

Your Founding Advertiser rate is guaranteed for every edition in your package. No surprise increases mid-run. What you lock today is what you pay through the end of your term — regardless of any future rate changes.

📰

Founding Advertiser Profile

A guaranteed editorial write-up on an interior page of every Gazette you're in (100-150 words about your story, what you do, why neighbors should know you) plus a 500-700 word web article that lives permanently on the site — articles never get deleted, so your story keeps earning SEO traffic for as long as the site is up.

🤝

Direct Line to Support

You don't get routed through a phone tree or overseas tier. A real person on our team — same time zone, same town footprint — knows your business, your offer, and your category lock by name. Founders shape what the Gazette becomes.

This is not the same as the Front-Page Spotlight.

The Front-Page Spotlight is a free monthly drawing — one advertiser per town wins a full editorial feature on page 1. Anyone can opt in, including founders. The Founding Advertiser Profile is different: it's a guaranteed interior-page bio + web article that runs every issue you're in. Two separate things. Founders are eligible for both.

Side by side.

Print & Mailing Timeline.
Once your final ad proof is approved by both you and The Gazette team, production begins immediately. Your Gazette mails to South Jersey homes within 7–14 business days of proof sign-off. You have 5 business days to review and approve your proof — delays in proof approval may shift your edition to the next available mailing window. Ad materials (logo, photos, copy) are requested within 3 business days of order confirmation.
🔒 Category exclusivity — first come, first served. The moment your category is paid for in a town, no competing business in your same sub-category can buy that town's issue. Your category is locked for the full count of prints you select. Next-in-line competitors go on a per-town waitlist for the next print run.

& Approval Process

Every advertiser is reviewed before they go in the Gazette — and you review your ad before it ever goes to print. No surprises. No guessing. Your approval is required.

We design your ad and send you a full proof to review. You have 5 business days to approve or request changes. Nothing goes to print without your sign-off. Period.

Our Promise To Advertisers

We're not a volume operation. We're a community-first publication that happens to carry advertising — and that means you get personal attention, real communication, and a guarantee that your ad actually looks good before it hits 10,000 homes. If something isn't right, we fix it. If there's ever a production issue on our end, we make it right. You're not just buying an ad — you're buying into a publication that gives a damn.

The questions Founders actually ask.

How long does the Founding Advertiser rate stay locked?

Your rate is locked for the full term of your edition package. If you lock 10 editions, all 10 editions are billed at the same rate you agreed to on day one — no increases, no renegotiations. When your package runs out, you can renew at the then-current Founding rate (which we communicate in advance — no surprises).

What if I only want 1 print to test it?

Absolutely. One edition is standard rate, no minimum — buy 1 issue, see the results, go from there. The Founders Program (3-edition minimum) is for businesses ready to own their category for multiple months. Most businesses start with one edition and upgrade to the Founders Program after their first issue lands.

Do my web articles stay up forever?

Yes. Once a Founding Advertiser web article is published, it lives on the site permanently — we don't archive, delete, or rotate them. Each new article we publish adds to the library, which means your story keeps earning organic Google traffic for as long as the site exists. SEO compounds; we don't undo it.

How fast will my ad actually go out?

Once your final ad proof is approved, production begins immediately. You can expect your Gazette to be in South Jersey mailboxes within 7–14 business days of proof sign-off. We'll send you your proof within 5–7 business days of receiving your materials (logo, photos, copy). The faster you approve, the faster you're in homes.

What do I need to send you to get started?

After confirming your category and completing your order, you'll receive an intake form. We'll ask for: your business logo (high-res PNG or vector preferred), 1–3 photos of your business or work, your main offer or message for this edition, and your contact info / website / phone number. That's it — we handle the design from there and send you a proof to review.

Are my prints locked to one town?

Nope. Spread them however you want. 1 in Voorhees + 1 in Marlton + 1 in Mt. Laurel works the same as 3 in one town. Same Founding price either way.

Is category exclusivity automatic across all my towns?

Per town, per print run. So if you're the HVAC slot in Voorhees, no other HVAC company is on that Voorhees mailer. A second HVAC company can buy a Marlton run while you have Voorhees — but if you also bought Marlton, your category is locked there too.

What happens to the Front-Page Spotlight lottery?

It runs every issue. One winner per town wins a full editorial feature on page 1. Founders are eligible to opt in just like everyone else. The Founding Advertiser Profile (printed Gazette spotlight + full article on neighborhoodgazette.town) is separate and guaranteed.
