Every package runs four consecutive issues unless noted. Sponsored placements are always labeled — readers trust the newsletter because we don't blur that line, and that's what makes a placement in it worth buying.
Our most popular placement, and where most businesses should start. A 50–75 word feature written in the Scoop's voice — not an ad you supply — with your photo, logo, and a tracked link, running four consecutive Mondays. Includes category exclusivity: while your run is live, no other business in your category appears in any paid placement. Plus one Instagram collab post during your run, and a performance report at 30 days.
Top of the newsletter, above all editorial. “This Week's Scoop, presented by [your business]” on all four issues, with your logo, a 75-word custom intro, a photo, and two calls to action. Includes category exclusivity, four Instagram Story mentions, one feed post, and a performance report at 30 days. One at a time — when it's taken, it's taken.
“Brought to you by [your business]” at the top of one recurring section, with a small photo. One sponsor per section, so it’s yours alone while your run is live. Non-intrusive, and the best value per reader we offer. Available sections: Events This Week, Live Music Calendar, Weather, and Volunteer & Non-Profit. (Category exclusivity across the whole newsletter comes with the Local Business Spotlight and Presenting Sponsor.)
For an opening, a special event, or a limited-time offer like holiday orders. An editorial-style write-up of about 75 words with a photo and a link, plus a free line in that week's events calendar. We'll run it in the issue before your event, or 2–3 weeks before your deadline for promotions. After it runs, we’ll send you a recap of how the issue did.
A small photo, your name and two or three lines of text near the bottom of the issue. Built for solo operators and trades — the low-commitment way in. Hiring? Job openings run $99 for four Mondays.
Want something longer or different? An 8-week run, a mix of newsletter and Instagram, a series around your events, or an idea of your own. Tell us what you have in mind.
Tell us what you do and what you're trying to make happen — we'll tell you which package fits and which one doesn't. We'd rather talk you out of the wrong one than sell it to you. Email [email protected] or call or text 843-619-3535.
