What are the monthly advertising prices?

The existing package rates are Basic Listing Upgrade $49 per month, Featured $149 per month, Guide Partner $349 per month and Premier Sponsor $799 per month. The package cards retain the multi-month options. Confirm availability and the agreed services before purchasing; a listed starting price is not a guarantee of a specific placement.

Does the Founding Partner offer still apply?

The existing Founding Partner offer is unchanged: 25% off a package for the first six months, a rate locked for twelve months, a Spotlight Article with a six- or twelve-month plan, and first choice of available Premier Sponsor spots. The published offer remains subject to its stated availability and agreed terms.

Can advertising guarantee Google rankings?

No. A paid placement buys the stated advertising services, not a top Google position, an AI citation or a fixed number of bookings. Search results and recommendations are controlled by external systems. Review the package deliverables and contact the guide to discuss which audience and placement match your business.
