Advertisements
We offer two types of advertising contracts: Month-by-month and
multi-month. Month-by-month
contracts let you advertise for one month at a time. You supply the
printed ad at the size you want in Sacra Blue, and you can
also place a 468 pixel by 60 pixel banner ad that will be placed one of
our eBlue pages during the month your ad appears in Sacra
Blue. Multi-month
contracts come in 3, 6, and 12-month increments. When you sign up for a
multi-month contract, you not only get Sacra Blue
advertising every month. You get an eBlue ad banner for every month
your ad appears in Sacra Blue. You get a free meeting table
for one of every three months your ad appears in Sacra Blue
so you can promote your business in person. Important!
For a list of ad deadlines, a breakdown of multi-month contract costs, and
a list and visual representation of ad sizes/placements, download our 1999

Commercial Advertising at
Meetings
SPCUG offers your company an
opportunity to reach a captive audience of at least 200 members and
visitors at SPCUG monthly meetings. We hold meetings on the third
Wednesday of each month; view our Web site for the latest information. We
give you two ways to advertise:
Tables. We offer 8-foot by 3-foot tables around the perimeter of
the meeting hall and in the lobby for companies to advertise their wares
before and after general meetings. Best of all, these tables cost only
$40 per meeting. Seat advertising. Your advertising can
be even more direct if you place your business's ad flyers on the audience
chairs before the meeting. It only costs you $30 to place ads on 200
