Multiply the total number of lines by your contract line rate and you will have the cost of the ad without colour. Let’s take a quarter page ad in the Ottawa Citizen as an example:1 inch in depth = 14 lines / 11.071” x 14 lines = 155 lines / Cost = 5 col. x 155 lines / = 775 lines x your line rate / = $ Your cost

The Ottawa Citizen has an electronic tearsheet process. The entire newspaper is available online enabling advertisers to immediately see their ad positioning, check the competition or measure ads. Online archives go back two years allowing advertisers to search for a specifi c ad or all ads in a particular time frame. Each ad also comes with a fi le of data including date, ad number, insertion number, section and page number, size, advertiser and agency.
With eTearSheets, advertisers gain signifi cant time and space formerly devoted to paper tearsheets. This feature is available to all clients and a one-time registration is all that is required to get started. Contact your Advertising Account Executive for your “organizational code” and go to the following url to sign up:
http://www2.shoom.com/etearsheets/default.asp
The site contains a user-friendly menu to help you through the process. If you have any questions or concerns please contact your Account Executive.
