Here are answers to the most commonly asked questions. Please Contact Us if your question was not answered.

My business is not located in Lakeside. Can I still advertise in the Lakeside Guide?
Probably not. The Lakeside Guide is one of the vehicles that Riverbed Ads has created to promote the businesses and community of Lakeside only. Although we are commited to this goal, there are a few exceptions. Please contact us to discuss your individual situation.

I don't have a logo or any artwork to create my Lakeside Guide ad. What can I do?
There are many graphic design companies you can use to create your ad and logo. Riverbed ads has assembled a graphic design team that is available to fulfill all your advertising needs. Please contact us to discuss the details of your project.

Can I include a coupon in my ad?
No. The Lakeside Guide is an annual publication designed to encourage people to keep it by their phone, desk, or in their car or purse and refer to it throughout the entire year. Coupons advertising publications tend to get ripped up and thrown out. We recommend using words within your ad, such as, "mention this ad for...", that will prompt people to tell you where they heard about you or to take advantage of a special promotion.

Are there limitations as to the content of my ad?
Yes. All ads must be pre-approved. We are committed to bringing a positive, beneficial representation of our community to the people that call Lakeside home and those who are just passing through. Generally, anything not in keeping with the family nature of the publication will not be accepted.
