To find out how you can advertise your event or business in the Bonanza Valley Voice, contact the publisher at bonanzavalvoice@tds.net. You can call the office and leave a message at (320) 346-2400.
The office is open for summer 2023 on Mondays and Tuesdays, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. both days. Call ahead for an appointment outside of those hours.
Anyone interested in advertising can get their message out through our print newspaper in display ads or the classified and directory section.
All paid classifieds in the print newspaper are added to our website free of charge.
Birthday ads, wedding/engagement notices and birth announcements cost $20 (birthday ads can cost more depending on the information and if a photo is used or not). If photos/information is e-mailed to us (bonanzavalvoice@tds.net) we can send back a proof for approval. Payments can be made by check or by Venmo = @bonanzavalleyminnesota.
Assumed name legal notice publishings for businesses costs $80 per business, total, for a two-week publishing of the notice. Contact the publisher for more details on that: lifeinbonanzavalley@gmail.com.
For as little as $25 a year, local groups and businesses can purchase advertising on this website. Contact the publisher to learn more about those opportunities.
Newspaper circulation
Circulation is currently over 1,690 copies per week, mostly through paid subscriptions. As of now (January 1, 2023) we have over 1,630 paid subscribers who enjoy the Bonanza Valley Voice each week. We are consistently adding new subscribers at the Bonanza Valley Voice, a trend that we work hard to keep going. We grew by "leaps and bounds" in the fall of 2016 and through December, and the growth increased more so in 2017 and into 2018. We are far and away the largest newspaper in our price range in central Minnesota.
Publication and advertising guidelines
We prefer to have advertising ready to go by noon on Tuesdays each week of printing. For example, if you want your ad to be in that week's newspaper, we would prefer having the text for a classified or the display ad graphic before Tuesday at noon. Our e-mail is bonanzavalvoice@tds.net.
We would gladly help design advertising for any group or business that wishes to advertise. The cost for this is included in the advertising rate.
The print advertising rate is $4 per column inch in 2021 and will remain that price for 2022.
