Billing Information
Payment must be received within 30 days after invoice date. If your company works with an advertising agency for creative and/or placement coordination, please remember that we strive to maintain our rates at a reasonable level and, therefore, AALAS advertising is not commissionable. We are happy to work with a professional agency regarding your ad; however, we prefer to keep any creative and/or other agency fees related to your ad an independent business matter between your company and your agency. We will bill the agency; however, if the agency fails to pay in a timely manner, your company will be billed directly.
Cancellation Policy
Advertising space may be cancelled 60 days prior to the closing date for ad materials. Advertisers who cancel after this date will be charged for the reserved ad space.
