FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

The Arizona Monster Flyer serves the greater areas of Prescott, Prescott Valley, Dewey-Humboldt, Chino Valley and Cottonwood Arizona areas and the Zip Codes surrounding them.  

We use a system called EDDM (Every Door Direct Mail) that utilizes the expertise of the USPS to delivery right to your hyper local customers addresses.

Yes, with the AZ Monster Flyer being 4 pages and a HUGE 24X18" size, this allows for your business to be SEEN by everyone that the flyer is delivered to. With an average of 3 people living in a home that's 30,000 potential eyes that see your business services.

The AZ Monster Flyer can be delivered multiple times per month to multiples of zip codes. Each mailer, if more than one per month (2 in total) are delivered to the mail boxes of 10,000 per mailing or 20,000 per month and will always be delivered to 20,000 separate homes (mail boxes).  

The USPS does not separate or distinguish between SFR (single family residences, apartment, condo or townhomes), as a result the flyers are delivered to any type residence within the specified zip codes used. They deliver with no regard for home ownership, rental or other.

Yes, we believe as a business owner if you want the maximum exposure the AZ MONSTER FLYER provides this option. The Monster Flyer is so HUGE and knowing that everyone who receives it looks at all pages, your business is equally represented on those pages but the front page (folded addressed page) is the first impression reader see, so you WILL stand our from your competitors.

While advertising in multiple locations on the Monster Flyer may be perceived advantageous for exposure, it isn't something we do as a best practice. There are exceptions in cases of ad size limitations, local charity or advertising for local community events where a paid advertiser is a sponsor AND the charity/local community event is also listed in that week(s) mailer/flyer. paid advertiser will be notified of such rare instances as they occur.

AZ Monster Flyer ad distributions are a minimum 30 days forward, so all ads placed must be paid in full 14 days before print date (not to be confused with mailing date). Print dates are discussed with and sent to an advertiser based on the mailer date without exception. All ads have a minimum requirement of 60% deposit at time of ad buy to secure your ad space, size and potential ad location within the Monster Flyer. Depending on proximity to print (publication) and mailing date an ad might have to be paid in full in order to be excepted.

Yes, we can use your existing ad copy and can make adaptations and modifications to match your current advertising message and colors. We can also start from scratch and create ad copy to make your business stand out brilliantly from your competition. You are allowed 2 revisions to your ad for approval. Any additional work may require an additional ad development fee.

Your ad will be pulled and replaced with another advertisers ad buy. Your deposit may be refunded minus 10% for administrative fees OR if you notify us within the 14 days we can move your ad to another dated mailer, any change will take editorial approval. Either way, if you miss that date your ad will not be in the contract dated flyer mailing.

Easy, we use 100lb glossy paper giving the flyer a very high quality feel, texture and appearance, it is a MASSIVE 24" X 18" four (4) fold, folded into a 9" x 12" neatly folded and easily opened to its full size. The 100lb paper is a requirement of the USPS. Trust us when we say your customer will see your business in the Monster Flyer!

It arrives in the home's mailbox 14-21 days after we go to print. It takes 4 days for printing and 3 days to prepare the Monster Flyer for the Post Office. Then 7-10 days in transit, depending on whether the mailing around a holiday or other event(s).

Every advertiser is emailed a proof of mailing from our EDDM printing office that includes zip code(s) mailed to along with the number of Arizona Monster Flyers mailed. This information can either be sent via mail or emailed to the approved contact person of responsibility on the account. Mailing date is also included.

 You have it back within 48-72 hours, sometimes in the same day. You're allowed two "modifications" to your ads prior to insertion. As noted in another FAQ, if additional revisions above and beyond the 2 revisions provided occur, you may incur additional graphic artist fees for your development.

We work very closely with our printing partner who has 35+ years of large scale printing and direct mailer experience. Every effort is made to ensure the flyers are mailed at the exact date required and coordinated using USPS guidelines. While we strive to make sure this is never an issue, there are those rare times that are out of our control which may prevent the flyers from reaching the thousands of homes at the same time, such as weather, labor strikes, postal service delays etc.

When we work with our clients, we strive to make sure your business and its products and services are properly represented with whatever size ad distribution bought. There are times when those needs change and we will make very effort to insure your ad is the correct size. If a situation arises where you need a larger or smaller ad, those changes will be solely dependent on availability of ad space, the ad size you are wanting and the proximity to the 14 day pre-mail date for each flyer and is on a case-by-case basis.

Short Answer - NO, we operate on a fair and equity based value system. No one business should be allowed to stymie another business's ability to thrive and prosper.

Your QR Codes can have a plethora of information as a subset of additional information not available on your AZ Monster Flyer ad just due to the simple fact that space is limited. We want to SUPERCHARGE your business by giving your company MAXIMUM exposure for the products and services you generally do not have space to market for.

Absolutely, Expanding your brand image to your customers only makes your business more viable to someone looking to find a nice restaurant or bar or whatever your business venue is. Pardon our pun, but don't leave money on the table!

YES - our dynamic QR Code system allows your dealership (or realtor or any inventory sensitive business) the ability to rapidly adapt the SAME QR code you used for your Monster Flyer ad to show new or updated product in minutes. Again, flex your marketing muscle with us!

Our QR Code we develop for your business will give you a HUGE advantage over your competitors in the following ways, but let's take a look at what we can give your business exposure to Social Media and you decide whether the AZ Monster Flyer can help you. While all the following is available for your business in one (1) Dynamic QR Code, not every business needs or wants all of them, but here it goes:

1) We clock in MOST every known social site on your Code

2) Design is part of the package and includes logo, background gradient color matching

3) You pick the "theme" and how your customers access the data from their phone

4) Upload and embed a video to share your success stories or just tell your story!

5) Show your business hours, embed a Vcard or other item as your business sees fit

 With a dynamic QR Code you can track data and edit the embedded content anytime. This saves you time and money on printing. With a static QR, the user will go direct to your embedded data i.e. URL and text. However, data cannot be tracked and you are unable to edit your URL. 

For marketing, Dynamic QR codes are more useful as you can track the following pertinent scan statistics: the number of scans, the time when the user scanned, the location of the scan (city/country), and the device type of the user (iPhone/Android). 

Which type you choose depends on your needs. Why not do both!

All AZ Monster Flyer clients who choose to utilize our dynamic codes will receive reporting bi-weekly (or weekly/monthly) as long as they are paid advertisers and for 2 months after the last ad mailed date. Reports are only emailed to responsible signatory of company.
