No Collette, Sadly we are talking about the July Review. I realize it has it issues, pardon the pun but for the price and the TWO month leadtime on ads, it is out dated before it goes to press in many instances. Maybe we need to go to an ON TIME more affordable Quarterly issue....heck I don't know, just throwing that out. But I DO know that we have shelved ads due to the extremely high cost per page, only allowing 2 photos per each, so a reasonable progeny spread of say six dogs with text is going to cost you BIG. If you go color , even worse. By the time the bill is paid, we still wait two months to see it.......and another two or three for those already outdated ads to get to everyone......not worth it. Even the Memorials are so late that people forget.....must be a better way. Other breeds manage it , why can't we? Not an attack on those running the Review, not at all, but surely they must be open for ideas from other publications? I would think that ENCOURAGING ads by lowering prices, and maybe making group packages available would help. It doesn't seem to matter if want a 1/3 page or 12 pages.....its all the same. No incentive for multiple pages..... so what is the point. Most can't afford it, no matter how many winning dogs they have. IMVHO Kathy Home of CH.
