Put your business on the page your neighbors pick up.

The Oldham Dispatch is a free weekly community paper for La Grange, Crestwood, Buckner and Pewee Valley. We're planning 2,000 copies a week, left at local restaurants, shops and other busy spots around the county, and filled with what's happening close to home. Our first issue comes out this December.

Why advertise here

One ad per category. If you're the plumber, the electrician or the dentist, you're the only one in your category on the page. Your competitors aren't sharing it with you.
Local by design. The paper is about Oldham County and left in Oldham County, so your ad reaches your own neighborhood.
We build it with you. We lay out your ad using your logo, and you approve it before anything prints. Changes are free, any time.
Founding advertisers get an introductory rate. It's locked in for your full 13-week term and goes up for advertisers who join after the first issue.
Extra exposure, if you want it. Sponsor our weekly reader contest prize and get a "Prize provided by" credit in the paper and online.

FAQ

How many people will read it?: Honest answer: the first issue isn't out yet. We're planning 2,000 copies a week across four towns, and we'll share what we learn as we go. That's why founding advertisers get an introductory rate.
What does it cost?: Founding advertisers get an introductory weekly rate, locked for the full 13 weeks. Email us and we'll send a pricing sheet along with a mock-up of your ad.
What if my category is taken?: First to commit gets the slot. Ask us what's still open.
Can I change my ad?: Yes. Changes are free, any time during your term.
Black and white?: Yes. The whole paper prints in black ink, so we'll check that your logo reads well that way. If it's pale or low-contrast, we'll ask for a darker version.
When do I need to decide?: To get the founding rate, let us know before the first issue prints.
I own a restaurant or café.: You're the reason this works. Restaurants are where readers pick up the paper, so we don't sell them ads. Instead, we'll list you for free on our Find a Copy page. See Find a Copy.
