Why Advertise

The full-funnel advertising platform for regional businesses

Patron accounts are built for advertisers, sponsors, and campaign operators who need a single workflow from print placement to digital conversion. Self-service and staff-guided options cover every placement type — from a simple classified to a multi-issue display campaign.

All advertising is paid through Stripe, tracked in the platform, and recoverable by staff if a draft or payment flow stalls. No scattered email threads. No manual invoicing.

Patron account capabilities

Includes all subscriber features, plus campaign execution and advertising workflow tools.

Print + digital continuity

Run print placements with companion digital pages so campaigns stay discoverable and useful beyond a single issue cycle.

QR bridge from print to action

Route offline attention into online conversion paths by linking print creative directly to campaign landing pages.

SEO and indexing support

Campaign pages are structured for search visibility, sitemap discovery, and social sharing so content can be found after publication.

Creative approvals

Keep versions, proof decisions, and payment status attached to the same ad record for an auditable campaign history.

Marketplace linkage

Connect campaign pages to listings and offers so promotion and commerce stay in a unified customer path.

Payment and tax operations

Platform payment rails, sales tax capture, and operational reporting reduce manual bookkeeping work.

Role boundary: Patron accounts are intentionally separated from contributor pathways to prevent editorial-commerce conflicts and keep trust boundaries clear. Patrons can use subscriber and community features plus campaign operations, but cannot become contributors.
