Prepare your mailer ad
You can reserve your space before your artwork is finished. Your edition’s artwork deadline still applies.
Choose one clear offer
Include your business name or logo, one headline, your offer and any restrictions, valid dates, and one clear way to respond: a phone number, website, address or QR code. Check the estimated delivery window before setting an expiration date. Leave customers time to use the offer after the last estimated arrival day.
Artwork sizes
- Standard panel: 3.70 × 2.45 inches. At 300 pixels per inch: 1,110 × 735 pixels.
- Double panel: 7.56 × 2.45 inches. At 300 pixels per inch: 2,268 × 735 pixels.
- Full front: 12 × 9 inches at trim. Request the full-front production template before exporting your final file so bleed and required layout areas are correct.
Keep text and important logos comfortably inside the edges. We check fit, readability and the finished postcard layout before sending your proof. Your selected placement and the final approved proof determine what is printed.
If your ad is ready
A high-quality PDF is preferred. PNG and JPG are also accepted. Use original files rather than screenshots or images copied from social media. The private upload page accepts files up to 20 MB, subject to the limit displayed there. Small text may be hard to read even in a high-resolution file.
If you need a template or design help
Select “Send my designer a template” or “Include design help in my quote” when booking. After payment, you can upload your logo and supporting images and leave notes for the designer. Email info@spotlightonsantamaria.com with your BOSM reference and selected size. We confirm any custom design price before starting work. Custom design is separate from the placement price.
Before printing
We review your artwork and send a final proof for your approval. Check phone numbers, web addresses, offer dates, spelling and restrictions. Uploading a file does not approve it for printing. A replacement file starts a new proof review. Once the job is handed to production, contact us before requesting a change.
