*Ad Rates

Special rate for business card size (3.25" x 1.75") is $25.00. Half business card size (3.25” x .875”) is $12.50. All others are $4.50 per square inch, e.g., 2" x 5" (10 sq. in.) is $45, 4" x 5" (20 sq. in.) is $90, quarter-page (5" x 8", 40 sq. in.) is $180, half-page (8" x 10", 80 sq. in.) is $360, full-page (10.25" x 15.75", 161.438 sq. in.) is $726.47. There is a $0.25 per square inch additional charge for special placement. Payment for ads is due at the time artwork is approved. Make checks payable to Our Community News. Buying space in advance will lock in the current ad rate, which is expected to increase somewhat as our circulation increases. We will gladly scan your artwork and work with you to prepare your ad for the paper.

Inserts

If instead of having your ad printed in the paper, you would like to have your advertising circular inserted in and distributed with OCN, the cost is $50 per 1,000 ($0.05 per mail stop) up to 0.2 oz. There is a charge of $8 per 1,000 per additional 0.2 oz. and a DISCOUNT of $5 per 1,000 for a full-run insert. You provide the items for insertion.

Ads on OCN's color insert

OCN now offers good-quality color ad space on a full-run insert. The insert will be an 8.5" by 11" sheet or an 11" by 17" sheet folded to 8.5" by 11". Full-page ads on the insert are 8.125" wide and 10.625" high allowing a 3/16" white border all around and cost $1,095 each. Half-page ads on the insert are 8.125" wide by 5.25" high and cost $795. These prices cover color printing and inserting in the newspaper. Since space on the insert is limited to a maximum of four full-page ads, it is important to reserve your space as early as possible.

Advertising Policy

Advertising rates are subject to change without notice.

Our Community News reserves the right to determine which ads will be published.

In support of our effort to promote Tri-Lakes area businesses, we only accept ads from businesses that have a Tri-Lakes area presence (office, shop, home office, etc.) or mobile businesses where the work is done on-site in the Tri-Lakes area and the owner or principal is a local resident. In such case, a Colorado Springs phone number may be listed. Colorado Springs addresses are not to appear. The Tri-Lakes area is defined as Larkspur to Northgate Road and the mountains to Black Forest.
