QUESTIONS / ANSWERS
Q: We have two cities within our primary coverage. Will the magazine
be exclusive for both, or just in the one city?
A: In Both. As long as both cities are accessible by a local or metro
phone number. For example, Dallas and Fort Worth are two separate
markets. It is long distance to call one from the other but they
are accessible with a Metro call. So, they are treated as ONE
market. Your exclusitivity will be protected.
============================================================================
Q: How many ads can I sell in the magazine?
A: I don't know the exact number. As many as you can. For example,
there is a minimum of 11 chapters each month and each chapter will
have at least 5-8 screens (pages). So, figure a max of a HEADER
and FOOTER on each screen: 11(chapters) X 5(pages/screens) X 2 ads
======(at 5.00 per ad) $110.00 just in the 2-line HEADERS & FOOTERS.
12 months X $110.00 = $1320.00 just on HEADERS & FOOTERS.
Then you can sell as many of the other sizes as you can.
=============================================================================
Q: What format do I use for ads I sell?
A: We can run ANSI, GIF, and .PCX. When submitting GIF or PCX files
they will be converted into executable files (we'll do that).
Therefore, if a client has a camera-ready ad, get the ad to us
and we will have it scanned into a .PCX file(there is a $3.00
charge for this and the $3.00 must accompany the copy). If you
have it scanned locally, simply mail/upload the .PCX file to
us. (Make sure that whoever scans it for you, understands that
it will run on a 20 line X 65 character screen.
For Headers & Footers, straight ASCII text.
==============================================================================
Q: When I sell an ad, how do I get the copy to you.
A: By any means possible: Mail, Fax, Upload.
=============================================================================
Q: If I elect to include local bbs news how will I get the information to
you?
A: See above.
================================================================================
Q: How do I get my magazine each month?
A: By Download. You will be provided an account on BBS America, which
operates on TBBS. Each issue will be attached to a message so when
you call, you won't have to search for it. It will pop up immediately
for d/l. Only you will be able to d/l YOUR customized copy.
===============================================================================
Q: When will the magazine be available for download?
A: On the last day of each month, and it will be available for you as of
12:01 a.m on that day.
================================================================================
Q: What if I pay you money and then you go belly-up?
A: Not a chance. BBS America has been online for the last three years,
as a high-profile bbs. I enjoy an even higher profile as the BBS
and computer news columnist for COMPUTER CURRENTS for the past three
years. By profession, I am a prolyfic, established writer (6 books
and hundreds of magazine/newspaper articles) with solid credibility.
