The basic production fee for ads produced by Alaska Business includes two client proofing cycles with client providing logos or photos. Changes to existing ads will incur a charge per change.
Requested Positioning: The Publisher reserves the right to place advertisements in the magazine at its discretion. We honor position requests as we are able to do so; however, requests are not guarantees.
