Advertising Opportunities

We regularly get three kinds of inquiries. They largely read likes this:

1. Can I show my paintings at your gallery?
2. Can you recommend a printer for my thesis?
3. I love your newsletter! Can I advertise in it?

Our abbreviated answers to the above are as follows:

1. No.
2. Sigh. Harvard doesn’t tell you where to get your thesis printed? What the hell are you paying for? OK. Try these.
3. Sure. It’s gonna cost you $50. Ads must be submitted as 785×785px jpegs. If you have a link to which we should point people, send it with your jpeg. If you just have a text-based ad, send it as text and we will set it for you in the most boring way we can. We’ll send a proof via email for your review. Your ad will go in the next outgoing email which could be sent at any time. We make no promises as to where your ad will fall in the newsletter. If we screw up your ad, we’ll re-run it in the next email at no additional charge. We are not gonna bore you with details about the size of our list or with details about engagement, our audience, or metrics. Don’t ask. We reserve the right to refuse an advertisement from anyone, for any reason. We’re unwilling to accept ads for books, publishers, or booksellers. If you are writing on behalf of a Fortune 500 company, a publicly traded company, or if you have a lot of money, we reserve the right to ask you to pay a lot more.
   

If you decide to pursue this, purchase the ad above just like it’s a normal product. You’ll receive an emailed confirmation of your order. Respond to that email with your ad before 5pm (Boston time) and your ad will be in our next newsletter.
