Content
How to Get Noticed Our skilled Design Team can help you create an effective advertising campaign. Keep these tips in mind as they walk you through the process of producing a top-notch ad for your business.
Keep It Simple
Say it in as few words as possible and remember that white space can be your friend.
SIMPLICITY
Make It Interesting & Unique A catchy slogan or a unique graphic will catch the reader’s attention and they will be more likely to remember your ad.
Use Color & Images
An image of your product will catch the reader’s eye. Readers are more likely to notice a color ad than a black and white ad. We cannot use copyrighted materials or content.
The Details Payment & Terms
Payment must be received with order and can be made by check, cash, money order, or credit card. In the interest of security, Student Media cannot accept credit card information electronically. For credit card payment, call the business office at (405) 3252521. We accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover. The application process for credit accounts may take up to seven days. Prepayment is required until approved credit is established. All advertising rates are net to newspaper.
Agencies
Agencies must complete a Student Media insertion order. All rates are non-commissionable and net to newspaper.
Electronic Submission
Due to software licensing issues, Student Media cannot legally accept client-provided fonts. For this reason, the preferred file format for ad submission is an Adobe Acrobat PDF X-1A file. A PDF X-1A compliant file assures that the ad uses no RGB color files and that all fonts are correctly embedded. This format is also most compatible with all versions of Acrobat. PDF files should be tested for PDF X-1A compliance prior to submission. To test the file, open it in Adobe Acrobat and preform a preflight using the PDF X-1A setting, Ensure that the file is the correct ad size (floating prohibited). Also ensure that no security settings exist.
Errors
We regret it when mistakes happen and will work to amend any advertising errors made by The Oklahoma Daily as quickly as possible. We will be responsible for only the first insertion of incorrect copy. Requests for adjustment must be made within 30 days of publication. Compensation for errors made will be at the discretion of The Oklahoma Daily. *Rate Card information (including publication dates) is subject to change.
