Online ads
Buyers on the event's online page see "Journal ad wording (if you're placing an ad)" and type it there.
Buyers type their ad wording online. - 4
See all the ads
The "Journal ads" section on the event's page lists each buyer with their wording.
Wording is kept with the order. - 5
Send to the printer
Copy the wording from "Journal ads" into your journal file, or print the event page.
Tips
- Hebrew and Yiddish wording is kept exactly as typed.
- Use a "Limit" on back-cover or inside-cover ads so only one is sold.
If something isn't working
An ad has no wording.
The buyer didn't type it. Ask them to email the wording and paste it straight into your journal file. The order itself stays as it is.
An ad item gives guest seats.
Ads should have "Seats" 0. Add the ad item again with 0 seats.
