PAYMENT
First time advertisers reserving space in NC State magazine must prepay for their ad space. Other advertisers may be required to pre-pay at
the discretion of the publisher. All charges are due within 30 days of the
billing date. Overdue accounts are subject to a finance charge of 1.5%
per month (18% per year).
POLICIES
A signed NC State display advertising contract or a signed insertion order
from a recognized advertising agency is required prior to the publication
of display advertising.
All advertisements are subject to approval. The publisher reserves the
right to reject or cancel any advertising for any reason at any time.
Advertising that simulates editorial copy will not be accepted.
All advertisements are accepted and published entirely on the written
representation that the advertiser and/or advertising agency is authorized to publish the entire contents and subject matter thereof. In consideration of the publication of advertisements, the advertiser and agency will
fully indemnify and hold harmless the publisher from and against any loss, cost
and expense resulting from any claims, demands, suits, actions, proceedings,
recoveries or expenses of any nature whatsoever arising out of publication of
such advertisements, including, without limitation, those resulting from claims or
suits of libel, violation of right of privacy, plagiarism or copyright infringement.
The positioning of advertising in NC State is at the discretion of the publisher,
except for inside covers and page 1, which can be guaranteed by written contract.
>> Justin Miller ’03 never planned
to be in the wedding business.
The photo-sharing app his
Raleigh startup, Deja Mi Inc.,
created was supposed to be an
alternative to the disposable
cameras that were once ubiquitous at live music events.
Though it never struck a chord
with concert-goers, Miller was
confident it would catch on if he
could find the right market.
And, then, Miller says,
“we stumbled on weddings,”
a $51 billion-a-year industry in
the U.S. WedPics, the product
they launched a little over
three years ago, is the world’s
largest and fastest-growing
wedding photo-sharing app.
“When the odds were really
stacked against us, we just
spent every single day listening to our audience, testing,
testing, testing, and shifting
this idea that we had until we
could catch fire,” he says.
WedPics hosts more than
10,000 weddings every weekend
and gets 1 million photo uploads
every week. To read more about
Miller and WedPics, visit

Space that has been reserved may not be canceled after the “Space
Reservation” deadline.
Digitally formatted ads are required by “Ad File Due” deadline. The delivery dates are estimates and are not guaranteed.

The publisher will retain advertising material for one year or will return
to client only upon request. The publisher is not responsible for retaining
advertising material beyond one year.
The publisher is not responsible for errors in key numbers. No
conditions, printed or otherwise, appearing on contracts, insertion
orders or copy instruction that conflict with publisher’s policies will be
binding on the publisher.
