Benefits

 

The revenue-sharing 2x2 Display Ad Network is a win-win program for all parties involved:

 

IT’S A GOOD DEAL FOR NEWSPAPERS

1. $150 Sign on bonus from NCPS to each newspaper.
2.  It often introduces nontraditional advertisers to the benefits of print.
3. Ads can run as stand-bys on any day of the week (for dailies and semi-weeklies). Ads can serve as filler ads (for both dailies and weeklies); cap of 10 ads each week.
4. Newspapers will get paid for the ads on a revenue-sharing basis, based on each paper’s percentage of statewide and regional circulation.
5.

The revenue-sharing model lowers the overall charge for non-paid promo space, giving newspapers a double benefit.
