Reach the people of Mission Viejo in their inbox, at breakfast, before anyone else does.

Mission Viejo Post is a new, free local newsletter and website for one city only. Council decisions, what is being built, which roads are closed, which businesses just opened. Reported from city sources and checked before it publishes. Twenty local businesses can put their name on it as Founding Partners, one business per category.

Founding rate · 20 places
$49 a month
Standard rate $99. Locked for 12 months. Twenty places, one business per category (restaurants count by kind of kitchen).
Reserve my founding place, $49 a month Prepay the year, $490 (two months free)

The first business in each category to complete checkout gets that spot. Right after you pay, email your business name, your category (for restaurants, your kind of kitchen), your logo and a one-line description to [email protected]. If two businesses in the same category pay at nearly the same moment, the earlier payment gets the spot and the other is refunded in full within one business day, with first claim on the next opening.

Categories already taken: none yet. Not sure your category is open? Email us before you pay and we will tell you.

What a Founding Partner gets

  1. Your logo in every newsletter, every send, for 12 months, with a line and a link. Your logo is also on the home page every day.
  2. A monthly card for an offer, an event or a job: in at least two newsletters, on the home page while it runs, and on the Local Deals page.
  3. Your profile page on the site, listed in our Local Partners directory: logo, 100 words, address, link.
  4. One Q&A with you as the owner, in your own words, with your photo.
  5. One business per category (larger categories split by specialty, such as restaurants by kind of kitchen), with priority on your spot at every renewal. Your name also goes in the launch article.

The terms, in plain words

Sign up in two minutes. Your spot is yours the moment your payment goes through: $49 a month, billed at sign-up, or $490 for the year. Your rate never rises as the readership grows. Cancel any time; nothing further is charged. Every price is fixed and published. No agencies, no bidding. Every paid placement is labeled Sponsored, and partners do not review or influence our reporting.

Our guarantee. If Mission Viejo Post is not at 500 subscribers by the end of your third month, your fourth month is free.
