WHERE IS THE EDITORIAL CALENDAR? By not locking in to a pre-set editorial calendar, we are more responsive and able to deliver in-depth coverage of topics that are current and most useful to our audience at that time. • We recommend that you establish a regular advertising schedule for 2010-2011. You decide when to advertise! • If we run an article related to your business sector, and you’re not scheduled that month, we’ll switch your placement or you can add an additional month for half your ad price! • How will you know about our features and focuses? A promo is sent out every month, outlining the content of upcoming issues. You can also check with your CBN ad rep for a preview of issues to come.
