Will a Full Page Ad Guarantee a Review?

hi warrenh, have you considered the inverse, will a favorable review guarntee an advertising contract for a year ?

Reviewing and advertising are handled by completely different aspects of a magazine. Reviewers don't know whose ads will appear till they see the their copy of the issue.

The stastics have been posted ad nauseum but people don't seem to care about facts that don't coincide with their misconceptions...

Being a reviewer, I would have to say that Nrchy is correct. Normally I have no clue about who is advertizing in my magazine, and who is not.

Mrtennis, the answer is "NO" -- a favorable review will definitely not guarantee an advertising contract. Not at the mags I've written for, anyway.
