Either way, it’s a 12-month spot, and the price includes everything: design, a QR code, printing, installation and upkeep. | Option | Price | Term | Total over 12 months | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Yearly | $600 | 12 months | $600 | | Monthly | $60 per month | 12 months | $720 | Both options get the same spot, the same design work and the same one-business-per-category protection. The yearly option costs less over the full term. The monthly option spreads the cost. ## What’s included - **Professional ad design**, which you approve before printing. - **A QR code on every ad**, linked to your site, booking page or offer. - **Printing** of the full board. - **Installation** in a high-foot-traffic local restaurant or business. - **Upkeep** for the full 12 months. - **One business per category** on each board. There’s no setup fee, design fee or installation charge on top. ![Installer leveling a framed board on a restaurant wall](/images/content/installer-leveling-a-large-framed-board-on-a-resta.webp) ## Yearly or monthly: how to choose **Pick yearly ($600)** if you’re confident in the spot and want the lower total. It’s one payment and done. **Pick monthly ($60)** if you’d rather keep cash flow smooth. It’s a small, predictable line in your budget each month. ![Calendar and coffee beside a printed invoice on a desk](/images/content/wall-calendar-and-a-cup-of-coffee-on-a-desk-beside.webp) ## Why it’s a 12-month term Boards work through repetition. Regulars see your ad every visit, and over a year that adds up to a lot of familiarity with your name. A full term also keeps your category yours on that board for the whole year. If the term worries you, read is a 12-month board ad worth it [/guide/is-a-12-month-board-ad-worth-it/ →](/guide/is-a-12-month-board-ad-worth-it/) . ## Thinking about value We don’t publish response rates or ROI numbers. Here’s a simpler way to think about it: at $600 a year, how many new local customers would it take to cover the cost? For many home-service trades, health practices and neighborhood businesses, the answer is one or two. Use the QR code to track scans, and ask new customers where they heard about you. > **Compare with other local options** > > A single > > Community Postcard > > [/community-postcards/ →](/community-postcards/) > > spot is $249 per edition. A board spot is $600 per year or $60 per month. Many owners use both: the postcard reaches homes, the board reaches people out in the community. ## Where boards are We’re signing host locations in Taylorsville, West Jordan and nearby Salt Lake Valley cities. We don’t publish host names, and we confirm placement with you when you claim a spot. ## How the board price compares to other local options It helps to see the board price next to other ways of reaching local people: | Option | Price | What you get | | --- | --- | --- | | Community Board spot | $600/yr or $60/mo | 12 months on a board inside a local restaurant or business | | Community Postcard spot | From $249 | One edition to 2,500 homes | | Spotlight System | $249/mo | Website, follow-up automations, review requests, one inbox | | Printing | By quote | Cards, signs, magnets and more | Each one reaches people differently. Many owners combine a board with a postcard spot or a digital plan. ## Monthly math, made simple The yearly option is $600 for 12 months. The monthly option is $60 per month for the same 12-month spot, which adds up to $720 over the year. The monthly option costs a little more overall in exchange for smaller payments. Pick whichever fits your cash flow. ## What you won’t pay extra for There’s no separate design fee, no setup fee and no installation charge. There’s no charge for upkeep during your term. The QR code on your ad is included too. ## Claiming more than one board If you serve a wide area, you can ask about spots on more than one board.
