Questions we hear before a booking
Grouped answers on our placements, our process and how to reach us.
About the placements
What exactly does Riverside Notice include?
One sponsor line with your link, written with your input and reviewed before it sends, carried across two consecutive Thursday newsletter editions along with open counts for both.
What area do your placements reach?
Our newsletter and podcast are read and heard across Verdun, Nuns' Island, LaSalle, Côte-Saint-Paul and the Aqueduct path — we do not sell placements outside the southwest shore.
How long does a podcast mention run for?
Southwest Shore Podcast Mentions covers four host-read mentions across four consecutive weekly episodes, each paired with a link on that episode's page.
What is different about the Full Shore Partnership?
It runs for six weeks and combines site placements, four newsletter credits, four podcast mentions and one partner-labelled profile page in a single coordinated booking.
Process & scheduling
How do I start a booking?
Send a message through the form on our home page or call us, and tell us which placement interests you — we can also suggest one once we know a bit about your business.
What happens after I send my first message?
We reply with next steps for the placement you chose, including what we need from you (a business description, a link, and any dates that matter).
How far ahead do I need to book?
Newsletter copy is needed by the Tuesday before the first Thursday edition, and podcast scripts need approval at least five business days before recording, since episodes are taped in batches.
Do I get to see the copy before it runs?
Yes — every newsletter line and podcast script is sent to you for approval before it publishes or is recorded.
Pricing & payment
What does the listed price include?
Each price on our advertising page is the full cost for the run described — the number of editions, episodes or weeks shown is fixed, with no separate production fee.
What if I need to cancel a booking?
Our cancellation terms are set out in full in the cancellation policy section of our terms, and in more detail on our cancellation and refunds page.
Are refunds available?
Refund eligibility depends on when you cancel relative to the run's start date; see the refund policy for the specific windows.
Practical
When are you reachable?
Our line is open Monday – Friday, 09:00–17:30, Eastern Time (ET) — Montréal.
How can I reach the team directly?

Where is Ravelmere located?
Our newsroom is at 730 Rue Wellington, Montréal, QC H3C 1T4, though our reporting and placements cover the wider southwest shore.
