Through the Kobey Magazine Ad Program
vendors can obtain premium space outside of Kobey's
normal processes, i.e. the monthly wristband lottery
and space auctions.
If the vendor wishes to obtain two or more premium
spaces together on a row, the vendor is expected to
pay a surcharge on each ticket. The daily surcharge
and the vendor's advertisement could be thought of
as a daily auction rate charged to the vendor for
securing premium tickets outside normal operations.
Tickets that are turned in for credit are only worth
the face value of the ticket on a premium row (A-D,
K, KX & J) or a main aisle corner by advertising
in Kobey's monthly publication, Kobey's Magazine &
Directory. Locations are subject to availability.
In addition to the price of each ticket, advertisers
who secure selling space on a premium row (A-D, K,
KX & J) are required to pay a surcharge of at
least $15 per ticket per day. Higher surcharges apply
to main aisle corners. All surcharges are non-refundable.
Vendors may pull unwanted selling dates from their
monthly packet at point of purchase to avoid losing
the surcharge fee(s).
As of January 2001, vendors can secure a monthly location
on E & F rows without being obligated to advertise
with the exception of aisle corners E12, E13, F12,
F13, E33, F33, E36 & F36.
Vendors who secure spaces E33, F33, E36 & F36
and aisle corners in the Back Center Section are not
required to pay an extra added ticket surcharge. These
tickets are sold at face-value. However, an ad is
required to obtain these spaces on a monthly basis.
(The aisle corners in the Back Center Section are
defined as the corner spaces located on either side
of the Back Gate walk-through aisle, rows K-S.)

ADVERTISING REQUIREMENTS:
Kreative Media advertisers maintain no permanent rights
to space locations secured through advertising.
Ticket availability renews or terminates after every
six month auction or at the discretion of Kobey's
Management.
In order to use the premium tickets stipulated in
their contract each month, the vendor must run the
minimum requirement ad. No ad, no spaces.
The minimum ad requirement for A - D, K, KX &
J rows and main aisle corners is a 5-column inch ad,
$90.
The minimum requirement for spaces E33, F33, E36 &
F36 and aisle corners in the back center section is
a 4-column inch ad, $72.
Kreative Media advertising invoices must be paid at
the time of monthly ticket pack purchase. If for some
reason an ad is not paid for at the time of ticket
purchase, a late charge of $25 will be applied if
not paid before the next billing cycle. The late charge
will appear on the next month's invoice.
DISCOUNTS:
A Camera-Ready Discount is applied when the vendor
submits camera-ready artwork. If Kreative Media creates
the ad for the vendor, the discount is applied in
the second month of advertising, lowering the price.
Don't forget -- advertising is tax deductable as a
business expense.
