Questions
When is the deadline to submit my forms? The deadline for submission to be included in PrideDirect 2006 is October 31, 2005. Respond by September 30 and receive a 10% discount!

How many directories will you be printing?

Anticipated initial production run will be 10,000 copies.

I want a reference to another section of the directory. What does it cost? Each reference to another category costs an additonal $10. This is a separate cost and is not included in the cost of any other listing or advertising option.

How much does it cost to have a web listing?

Listing on the website is free with any paid listing.

Can I list only on the website? Yes, the cost is the same as a basic listing or an expanded listing in the printed directory. Just fill out your forms and let us know that you only want to be listed on the website, and not in the printed directory.

Can I have an ad on the website? Not at this time. Currently only basic and expanded listings are acceptable for website listings. This is primarily due to the amount of bandwidth we have available on our server. Another consideration is that we want these pages to load quickly and limiting the graphics will ensure that everyone has a pleasant browsing experience.

I sent you my ad as a Word Document. Why are you charging me to "computerize" it? Ads created in Word do not import directly into our graphic software, so there is still some amount of labor involved. The cost to convert your Word Document to an electronic version acceptable for reproduction is $15. Approved software formats are listed in the PrideDirect Information Package on page 2. Having said that, if your ad is in Word we still encourage you to send us your file and any special fonts you used. This will ensure a better quality final ad than what we are able to construct from scanning a paper copy.

I sent you my ad as a Word Document. Why do you want a paper copy too? Word does not retain fonts, so it may not look the same on our screen as on yours. We want to be certain that your ad looks the way you intented.

I sent you my business card. Why are you charging me for artwork? Your business card is not art in an electronic format. There is labor involved to scan, or in some cases, recreate your card. The cost to scan your business card and create an electronic version acceptable for reproduction is $15. This is in addition to the cost of a 1/4 page ad.

I don't get paid until the end of the month, can I submit my form now and send a check later? We prefer that you don't. It makes our record keeping more difficult. Please submit your payment with your forms. Just be sure to submit them before the October 31th deadline.
