How does it work?
Company Story Postings cost $150. Company Story Postings are featured on our Homepage in the Special Feature box for seven (7) days, appear (1) time in FIRST & 42, and receive one (1) social media shout-out. From the time of your submittal, please expect your placement to be at least seven (7) business days in the future, unless you indicate a later date. Afterwards, they will remain on our Your Stories page.
Content will be displayed exactly as YOU submit it. Our fee DOES NOT include writing services. We know the truth: Writing isn’t as easy as it looks. If you are interested in having us do the heavy lifting (aka writing) for you, we can! But there is an additional cost: $500 for 400-500 words. Contact Kim Chmielewski to be invoiced for this additional amount.
Be aware of “the long and short of it:” Content will appear in full on our website. On the day your feature is shared in the digital daily version of FIRST &42, content will be condensed to one paragraph, include a link to the full version of your story on our website, and offer a link to your company’s website.
Content must be appropriate for our audience. Content may not be hurtful to anyone. Content must be federally legal. Yes, those three musts still leave some businesses caught in shades of gray. We agree: We are in complicated and changing times—a time when the “rules” are always changing. If we cannot serve your request to the best of our ability, we will refund your money.
