Behind the Scenes: From Sign-Up to Mailbox

1. Ad Submission or Creation
Once you reserve your ad space, it’s time to craft your message. You can send us a 300 dpi print-ready ad or collaborate with our in-house creative team. We’ll base your design on any photos, text, or branding elements you provide - keeping your unique style front and center.

2. Layout & Proofing
By the 15th of the month prior to each issue, our design experts carefully arrange ads for that upcoming edition. We pay close attention to:

  • Color & Saturation: Ensuring a balanced, vibrant look throughout the magazine.
  • Placement Rotation: Avoiding coupon overlap and giving each advertiser prime visibility.
  • Proofreading: Double-checking text for clarity and accuracy.
Once the files go to print, we receive a physical proof within 24 hours. Our team meticulously reviews each page, ensuring every color, graphic, and headline meets your standards.

3. Printing & Bundling
After the final approval, printing typically takes place over the following week. Each magazine undergoes pre-press, printing, binding, cutting, and bundling with careful attention to detail. We then add all necessary postal paperwork and mailing trays, labeling each bundle by its designated route.

4. Personal Delivery to the Post Office
We don’t leave distribution to chance. Look Local’s owners personally transport every bundle to our local U.S. Post Office central processing facility. Each shipment is weighed, counted, and prepared for delivery to individual post offices. Your ad then travels from us to the mailboxes of your potential customers - arriving by the 5th of the publication month.
