AD CREATION
Working Dog Magazine® will create your ad at a flat rate of $100, regardless of size. This includes basic design, image conversion to CMYK, and a digital proof sent to your email. You may make two (2) separate revisions and still be covered under the paid ad creation fee. More than two (2) separate ad changes may incur additional charges. The ad creation fee will be due upon completion of the ad. Advertisers are responsible for providing their own graphics, logos, and images to appear in the advertisement (see Artwork Specifications).
