Foreword Holiday Issue Advertising Alert
The dog days of summer are upon us, and in ancient times this meant the rising of Sirius, known as the dog star, and it’s presence signifying some relief from the heat of summer. At Foreword, this means the closing of our Fall issue, and beginning on our holiday edition. The November/December issue comes out in late October, in time for the holiday buying season, which starts well before Thanksgiving.
Not to wish your summer away, but we appreciate early ad reservations and as incentive, we offer a 15 percent display ad discount to those who reference this email notice by August 31st. Simply contact your sales representative today for further details or to reserve premium placement early.
