ataPath Systems has conducted an extreme readership survey of What’s Up Yukon readers (they didn’t phone people, they snuck up on them) and has concluded that one out of two Yukoners read this paper while sitting on a toilet. So, if you are reading this at Zola’s Café Doré and your neighbour is sitting on an elephant’s foot, you may want to check to see what you are sitting on. Says this loyal reader, Anthony Trombetta, “I like to read What’s Up Yukon right before I host Coaster’s Comedy every other Wednesday at 9 p.m. I will totally read it April 9 before our next show.”

As Whitehorse welcomes the Canada Games athletes and their supporters and fans, let us remember it was Peter Milner’s enthusiasm and strength of character that made it all possible. Sadly, he did not live to see this day, but Yukon athletes will honour his memory as his initials appear on each uniform. George Maratos pays tribute to Mr. Milner on Page 29.

Production Quality What’s Up Yukon’s full colour production model demands a higher quality print to achieve our magazine layout and feel. • Non-toxic vegetable based ink and completely recyclable • Full Colour Digital Newsprint • Premium Glossy Print (8 Pages) and premium colour print pages • Professional Graphic Design Services

FREE Distribution - is a HUGE advantage.

We offer a comprehensive online experience

What’s Up Yukon invests in learning more about readership through a third party professional business - Datapath Systems.

This is the information age and we all expect to have access for Free. Free Distribution is a big contributor to What’s Up Yukon’s success. Remove barriers from readers with unique distribution points.

It is What’s Up Yukon’s policy for all content to be 100% local. What’s Up Yukon promises readers and advertisers only local content - never using free on-line fill services. Local content is crucial to maintaining the high percentage of readers who actively read the entire issue. Engagement is key.

What’s Up Yukon ads are out for one week! This means your message gets more time in the market compared to traditional newspapers. People are busy today. Once a week distribution ensures What’s Up Yukon and your ads receive consistent readership and consistent content retention. Another benefit, the events content compels readers to reference the events on multiple occasions.

What’s Up Yukon is FUN Yukoners enjoy reading about their neighbours and plan their leisure time with the many schedules inside. What’s Up Yukon is about celebrating who we are and exploring what we can be. Numerous columnists and writers take being the FUN EXPERTS, seriously.

This guide contains useful information for producing your ad for publication in What’s Up Yukon. If you need additional information, please contact Tammy Useful information for producing your adfor further assistance. tammy @whatsupyukon.com for publication in What’s Up Yukon.

ACCEPTABLE SOFTWARE FORMATS

Pre-Flight CHECKLIST

Adobe Indesign CC, CS6.5 and lower versions. The packaged folder archive must include a pdf proof and an idml translation file, plus linked images and fonts. Pass through flightchecker to ensure completeness and no errors.

PDF:

Adobe Photoshop CC, CS6 or earlier (flattened, or in layers with all type rasterized or fonts included) *

 The file was distilled using PDF X1/a:2001 settings.

EPS (with pictures embedded and all type outlined or fonts included) * Illustrator CC, CS6 or earlier (flattened, or in layers with all type outlined or fonts included) *

A quick check through this list can eliminate most print problems.  PDF file was created using Acrobat Distiller.  All fonts were embedded.  Security settings were turned off and no encryption was used.  PDF is cropped to correct ad size with registration and crop marks turned off.

JPEG (be aware that we convert these to tiff, cmyk before printing)

IF SUPPLYING AD IN DESIGN STAGE:

Microsoft Word or Publisher files are not accepted! However, we can build your ad in-house using your Word or Publisher document as a guide. Please embed any graphics or supply separately. This service is included in your advertising price.

FONTS:

PDF (high resolution print quality, preferably PDF/X-1a:2001) **PREFERRED**

 Open type or Multiple Master fonts were NOT used.

TIFF (flattened)

 Outlined fonts - save a copy of non-outlined text outside of the ad area for future editing.

* Rasterizing and outlining type ensures that we will not have any font substitution problems, however, it renders the type un-editable.

A NOTE REGARDING IMAGE RESOLUTION The professional quality of the images in your ad are a reflection of the quality you strive for in your business. In order to ensure the highest quality results for your ad images, all images must be adjusted to a minimum of 220 pixels/inch at the size it will appear in your ad (300 pixels/inch is optimal for glossy stock ie. our front, back and centre). Please note that printing an image requires a much higher image resolution than viewing it on a computer screen. If you are unsure of the quality of your image, try printing it at home or in your office on a standard ink jet or laser printer. Does it look pixelated (soft, crunchy or distorted)? If so, the only way we will be able to use your image in your ad without it appearing pixelated is if the width and height are scaled down, therefore increasing the resolution. If you do not have a printer, we will be happy to inspect the image resolution for you (all ad images will be inspected for resolution quality at the time of submission). An image at 72 pixels/inch (typical web resolution) may look like this on your computer screen:

But it will look like this when printed on paper:

 Both screen and printer fonts were provided.

IMAGES AND SCANNING:  Include all TIFF [LZW compression was turned off] or EPS images used in ad (no giffs or jpegs).  Halftone or photo-quality images were sized to 220 dpi for newsprint or 300 dpi for heatset or glossy products.  All line art and line drawings were sized to 600 dpi for newsprint or 800 dpi for heatset or glossy products.  All images have been flattened (no layers). In-house designers should save their .psd files (if used) and include in archived folder for future editing.  All files are CMYK/Grayscale/Line Art (no RGB).

COLOURS:  Use pure Black (4 Color or registration black is not recommended).  All colors are CMYK - replace all PANTONE or RGB colors with CMYK and give consideration to dot gain (28%) and ink density (240%).  Type under 9pt and lines under 1pt should be one process ink colour (cyan, magenta, yellow or pure black) or white only (or accuracy of registration cannot be guaranteed on newsprint).

DOCUMENT:  The ad measures the correct size.  All files have been flattened (no layers).  Ad has a border defined by background or a line. If not, it may be necessary to add one to separate it from editorial.  Ad pasteboard is cleared of old images not used in ad.

NAMING CONVENTION

Please be aware that if you submit low resolution images, there is very little we can  Image names should be specific eg. red hat.tiff, NOT generic eg. image.tiff do to enhance image quality. We can always lower the resolution (downsampling) if it is too high, but increasing the resolutioninformation, (upsampling) will not improvecontact it. If you need additional please Tammyfor further tammy PDFs supplied assistance: should reference ad name and@whatsupyukon.com date, eg. 150205_Whitehorse Chamber.pdf, NOT whatsupyukonad.pdf Note: Supplied image brightness/contrast may be adjusted to optimize print quality.

We definitely love working with What’s Up Yukon for our marketing efforts, even more, since we discovered through a community survey that our audience is using WUY as one of the main references to know what’s going on in the Yukon. WUY is the best for advertising performing arts. Gwaandak Theatre Always professional and offers a lot of options and possibilities for l’AFY communications.

Association Franco-Yukonnaise Your ambition and energy is a blessing. We here at Canal Marine and Oceanside RV in Haines love to be a part of your publication. You stand above the rest in your timely ads. Thank you again for your continued support. Oceanside R.V. Park I have really enjoyed watching What’s Up grow - you guys are so committed to this community forum - thank you for the great covers, unique columns approach and listings. Patti Balsillie CAE, EQAT Tammy and her committed Team of experts bend over backwards for their Clients. The entire paper is first-class, never boring and always full of good and interesting news. Even the quality of the photos is first-class. What’s up Yukon—I trust it and admire the way it is run. Special thanks to Tammy for all of your very helpful advice and the time you take to make your Clients feel special. Your brand of service and quality is truly exemplary. Joy E Karp Author & Business Owner Top-notch people who are passionate about their work and who seek (and make happen) mutually beneficial opportunities. We really appreciate our partnership and the latest article and photos really captured the essence of who we are and what we are trying to be. In fact, thanks to What’s Up promotion we attracted members from Dawson and Beaver Creek! Yukonstruct

What’s Happening at the Yukon Arts Centre

The support and design I receive from What’s Up Yukon makes marketing so much more stress-free than any other publication I’ve worked with. It’s just so nice to have that attention, especially when you’re a one-person operation. It makes me feel as though my business matters to you as much as it does to me! Ellen Brian Little Star Astrology We truly appreciate your commitment to building a rich and culturally vibrant Yukon. The program helps highlight the amazing Aboriginal art & culture Yukon has to share. Adaka Cultural Festival What’s Up is not only THE BEST source for news on Yukon arts and culture, you are awesome supporters. Yukon Queer Film Alliance Fantastic to deal with and very efficient! Yukon Chamber of Mines Excellent customer service and attention to detail. Kevin Moore, Edward Jones Very easy to deal with and Tammy was so helpful in getting our ad constructed and in the paper. Communication was always prompt as well...very pleased! Yukon Speech-Language Pathology & Audiology Association Residents and businesses enjoy the coverage and services What’s Up Yukon provides in our community. Similarly, the majority of audiences at the Palace Grand Theatre (and 60,000 visitors to our community) often rely on What’s Up Yukon coverage during their trips. Dawsonites and our visitors appreciate reading What’s Up Yukon. Thank You! Klondike Institute of Art & Culture Live at the Palace Grand Theatre Dawson City, Yukon

What our Clients think Advertising in What’s Up Yukon weekly has been so successful, we’ve had to re-evaluate our marketing plan to accommodate the business success we’ve enjoyed. Ammanda Partridge Business Owner, Elements Esthetics I am very happy with Condor’s partnership with “What’s Up Yukon”. The exposure has been great and the flights are doing very well. This should be another successful season for both of us. Janet Gorecki-Mackanin Sales & Marketing Manager North America, Mexico & Caribbean Region Condor Airlines We have received several emails, phone calls, in person comments from both staff and public indicating that our new page in What’s Up Yukon is a great resource for information. Comments such as:

“I think the page is great!” “I’m reading What’s Up Yukon more and more.” “I picked up a What’s Up Yukon today and thought your page was very informative!” “Its nice to have up to date information available as this is a free publication and located everywhere!” “ I like that the branding reflects Parks and Rec, and that CGC is just a part of that messaging.” “I found the ad easy to read and follow and have seen it change and be updated from the previous ad, which made me come back and read it for current updates.” “Kudos!” Tim Laprade Leisure Services Supervisor Parks & Recreation City of Whitehorse

A few comments regarding our ad design service from What’s Up Yukon:

“Give your designer a hug from me! It’s beautiful.” “It’s freakin’ beautiful” “I LOVE IT! Your ads blow me away!” Jerome Stueart Marketing Director Yukon Art Centre I would like to thank the What’s Up Yukon team for such a great BreakOut West feature. Neat to see a different take on the musical profiles, the schedules were laid out beautifully so easy to follow (saw lots of people with an excerpt from What’s Up Yukon in their pockets over the weekend), and the cover on the edition drawing from the many Yukon music/ musician stories in past issues was exceptionally effective! Encouraging some of the restaurant venues to advertise including the Yukon spotlight/musicians definitely helped increase their business. The Yukon spotlight initiative went over very well from all accounts. I personally know dozens of people who deliberately fraternized those Yukon establishments that were featuring Yukon musicians. So kudos all around. Cheers! Duncan Sinclair Music Yukon

“High praise from the merchants who’ve participated in the past.” RE: Skagway Pages in What’s Up, Yukon Carlin “Buckwheat” Donahue Executive Director Skagway Convention and Visitors Bureau
