Preparation
Advertisers have the option of using their own advertising agency or having the staff of the American Fastener Journal prepare the cover and/or story. We have access to several excellent free lance writers and photographers. Writers generally charge about $850-950 plus expenses. Fees for the photographer are more difficult to estimate since advertisers may require different levels of complexity in the photographic process.

Reprints
Advertisers who contract for a cover are offered the opportunity for FREE reprints. Reprints are especially effective at trade shows, in mailings to current and potential customers. They can also be used as a new piece of literature for reps and/or sales staff to distribute to customers and prospects and numerous other uses. Minimum order is 1500.
