For questions and/or a quote for advertising, please send an email to communications@3pa.org.
The Post is published quarterly and is distributed door-to-door within the 3PA boundaries, which are essentially I-25 to the north, Evans to the south, Broadway to the west and Downing to the east. Learn more about Platt Park here.
Issues are dropped off for the common areas of many of the apartment buildings within the boundaries. Issues are also made available at local venues, such as Stella’s and Nixon’s Coffee Houses. Total distribution is approximately 3,500.
Your ad is also featured on the Advertisers’ Page on 3PA’s website. For multiple issue ad subscribers and if desired, ads may be changed issue-to-issue, provided that the revised ad copy is received by the deadlines indicated on this page.
Advertisers provide their advertising copy in “ready-to-print” mode, which is generally the following:
-
A JPEG or PDF file size of approximately 1 MB or more.
-
Dimensioned appropriately for the requested ad size.
-
Resolution of at least 300 pixels per inch, at the requested ad size.
All PPP staff are unpaid volunteers. 3PA pays commercial service providers for layout, printing and distribution of each issue.
If you need assistance in preparing your ad, we suggest contacting One Ton Creative, which provides the layout service for the Platt Park Post. One Ton offers its services at reasonable rates and is a Platt Park business.
