Do you have questions about advertising with the CV Social? Here are some answers:
Is there a charge to have my event listed on the back events calendar, or for a write-up?
No: the events calendar listings are free, and the write-ups are at Heather’s discretion (no charge). If you’re planning an event, send the details to Heather and she will promote it however she thinks is most appropriate/useful.
Can I advertise in the summer (busy) season only?
Yes! But ad space is very limited & goes quickly. To lock-in your spot, consider advertising year-round.
Is there a discount for non-profits to advertise?
No. The advertising rate is already very reasonable ($40+GST/issue), especially with free design work included.
What are the available ad sizes?
It depends on how much space is available in that issue. Advertisers who have been with the CV Social for longer are given first dibs at larger ads.
At this time (2026), only regular-size ads (roughly business card-size) ads are available.
What are the ad rates?
Regular size (2.6″ wide by 1.7″ high, roughly business-card size) = $40+GST per issue, so $80+GST per month
At this time (2026) there are no double-size or triple-size ad spaces available.
The CV Social invoices monthly by email, around the first of the month.
Who is able to advertise in the CV Social?
The CV Social is a Columbia Valley publication: it supports Columbia Valley based businesses, causes & organizations. Columbia Valley residents may also request advertising for their events/projects.
