Want to ADVERTISE in the CONvergence 2002 Souvenir Book?

We are currently accepting advertising for our CONvergence 2002 Souvenir Book, which is given to every attending member at CONvergence. CONvergence has an annual attendance of over 1,700 and that's a huge advertising opportunity for businesses or other organizations with a target market in science fiction fandom.

CONvergence advertising rates are affordable for anyone from businesses to fan groups with an interest in reaching the audience of CONvergence members. Even a dealer already planning to have space at CONvergence would find it worthwhile to make sure CONvergence attendees take home an advertisement and contact information for their business.

Don't miss this opportunity to reach this very specific audience with your advertising! The final deadline for CONvergence 2002 advertising is May 15, 2002. We must have all materials in-hand by that date, so we recommend contacting us before then if you would like to advertise in our Souvenir Book.

Advertising Rates

Please note, we have both PRO rates and FAN rates.  PRO rates apply to any for-profit business or money-making venture.  FAN rates apply to fan groups and individuals who are not advertising for business purposes.

Format Requirements

The CONvergence Souvenir book will be printed in black & white, not color, so all ads should be line art or grayscale, and a resolution of 300 DPI is strongly recommended.  Ads may be submitted as camera ready art or as a JPEG or TIFF file.  If you need to submit your ad in a different format, please let us know as early as possible to allow time for any special arrangements needed to accommodate you.  If you are submitting your ad in a digital format, we ask that you include any fonts used in the ad and that you fax or mail us a hardcopy for reference purposes.

Policy

CONvergence retains the right of refusal for any ad or advertiser. If you have any questions about our content and format requirements or about help creating your advertisement, please contact us.

Procedure

Ad graphics may be sent electronically to publications@convergence-con.org
