We have 9 marketplace members featured in the half page CoOp ad that we purchased for this issue of CT. You can view the ad and the links to these members' sites by clicking on the CoOp Ads page of the marketplace. The photo on the site is just a proof; the quality of the ad photo is much better...just FYI. Thanks to all our CoOp ad sponsors for this issue. We hope to run another ad soon, so if you have any interest in purchasing a spot, feel free to drop me an email.

CoOp Ad in Creative Times

Just wanted to let you know that I am purchasing a half-page ad for the July/August issue of Creative Times magazine for our marketplace. You can purchase a 150x150 product photo spot at $20 for PAID and current marketplace members, and $30 for non-members. This is a great price for an ad that will run in the magazine for two months of publication! All ad details are on the Advertising Packages page of the website. We have 8 spots available for the ad; if more than 8 people are interested in a spot, I will purchase another ad spot if we get enough extra interest. But for now, we are limited to 8 spots. So don't delay--buy your spot now!

Feel free to email me with any questions you might have!
