See it in practice
Both editions of the August 2026 issue are published in full on this site. Look at how the ads sit against the editorial, see who already holds a category, and judge the production quality yourself before you commit to a contract.

Full page is 8.5" × 11", half page is 8.5" × 5.5" in horizontal or vertical orientation, and quarter page is 4.25" × 5.5". Front and back cover positions are also available and are limited to one advertiser per zone, per issue.
Two sizes: 6" × 11" and 5" × 8.25". Postcards mail separately from the magazine and are offered to contract advertisers at half the standard rate.
A detachable insert bound into the magazine — designed for a coupon, a seasonal offer or a single product highlight that a reader can tear out and keep. Availability is limited to one pop-out insert per magazine, per issue.
Three weeks before each in-home mail date. Payment is due prior to each mail date, and proofs are approved by you before anything goes to press.
No. Give us an idea of what the ad should say and our team designs it in-house at no additional charge. You review and approve every proof before it prints.
The magazine is mailed to 180,000 owner-occupied, single-family homes across 34 Middle Tennessee communities. Renters, apartments and commercial addresses are excluded — that is the publisher's stated guarantee.
Next step
There is no published rate card, because a quarter page in one zone and a cover position in both are not the same conversation. Tell Terry what you are trying to accomplish and he will put a plan against it.
