Preparation: All material necessary for ad placement must be received by Spoke+Blossom (S+B) no later than the specified ad due dates. Should ad materials not arrive in time, S+B is authorized to publish the last prepared ad, if any. The advertiser will be charged as if the proposed ad had been published.
Content Deadlines:
Spring - First week of February
Summer - First week of May
Fall - First week of August
Winter - First week of November
Payment: Payment is due by content deadline. S+B is authorized to hold publication of advertisements until full payment is received. Advertisers will be reminded via email before deadline to send advertising artwork and payment. Once S+B receives payment and artwork, advertisers will receive a proof of ad prior to publication. A 10% late charge will be assessed for all payments received 30 days past the deadline.
Refusal: S+B reserves the right to refuse any ad for any reason. If an ad is refused during a contract period, S+B is authorized to publish the last published ad unless/until a replacement ad is received by S+B no later than the content- due date specified in the media kit.
Cancellation: Contracts may not be canceled once any payment is received. Advertisers are responsible for all payments whether artwork is submitted or not.
Hold Harmless: Advertiser accepts all responsibility for any and all advertisements published by S+B on behalf of the advertiser. Advertisers will hold harmless S+B for any and all claims for any ad, including but not limited to tort, copyright, and photo or trademark actions.
