Frequently Asked Questions
Do you buy the ad in the publication, or does Admedic do it?
We are not a media placement service, and do not place ads. Our specialty is creating great print ads and campaigns that get noticed and get results. When we begin your project, you'll need to furnish us with the size of the ad or ads you will be running, all other publication specs, and contacts of the pubs you'll be using. Upon final approval, we will send final art to either you or the publication - whichever you prefer.
What format will my ad be created?
We create all our ads on the Mac, primarily InDesign, but in special cases Quark, Photoshop, or Illustrator if the publication requires. We don't create ads on the PC since the majority of publications require Mac format.
Do I get the final ad artwork?
We archive your ads, and will e-mail you the final version as a high resolution PDF. This is the most widely accepted format, though we can provide you or the publication the native file (ie. Quark or Illustrator) for no extra fee. We can also burn the final art to a CD and overnight to you or your publication for a small additional charge.
Who owns the final artwork?
Your final approved ad and artwork is yours, and ownership rights transfer to you upon payment and delivery. Note that we normally send you several design options or concepts to choose from, but the rights only transfer to the final ad you've chosen and purchased, not the unpurchased concepts or designs.
How much would it be to make changes to my ads at a later date?
We charge a flat rate of $65/hr for revisions to an existing ad, with a 1 hour ($65) minimum. We'll be happy to provide a quote for any changes prior to beginning work. The typical charge for minor type changes or resizing would be in the 1-2 hour range, or $65-$130. But check with us first since it varies depending on the extent of your changes.
What will my project cost?
Most projects fall under our fixed rate price structure, and include unlimited revisions until you are completely satisfied. Visit our pricing page and use our pricing calculator for an instant quote for your project. Pricing may vary depending on the specific requirements of your project. Please request a written proposal to confirm pricing and get started.
Once I submit my project request to Admedic, what happens next?
The process begins by getting an instant quote in our pricing page. The next step is requesting a written quote, which includes the final cost, terms of service, and payment information. You will instantly receive a confirmation e-mail to be followed by a formal project estimate within one business day. Upon approval of your quote, we require a deposit equal to 50% of the estimated amount prior to beginning work. Payment can be made online by credit card (Visa, Amex or Mastercard) or an overnight bank check or money order. Upon receipt of your deposit, we will send you login information to our Admedic project area. We will also gather background material needed to produce your project. In most cases we offer a short, step-by-step form that helps you easily organize your information. With this information in hand we begin creating the stated number of design options, which will be posted to the job area within 5 business days (rush service available). You can then suggest changes, see revisions, and narrow it to your final, approved project. Upon final completion we request final payment, due upon receipt of final artwork. Payment is fast and easy, and can be made online using a credit card.
How long will my project take to complete?
Standard turnaround is 5-7 business days. Expedited service is 3-4 days, and Rush is 1-2 days. Actual turnaround times depend on our current work volume. 3-4 day guarantee is 150%, and 1-2 Rush is 200% of our standard pricing. Note that turnaround times are only for the initial round of designs -- extra time may be required depending on client feedback, revisions and final production requirements. The best rule of thumb is plan ahead so you can avoid missed deadlines and extra charges.
Do you provide other services besides print ad production?
Yes! We also provide graphic design and email marketing services. Please contact us if you would like an estimate or wish to see samples of what we've done for other clients.
