FAQs
Q. How much does it cost to advertise in CMQ?
A. We charge £1 per word (or abbreviated word), and an additional £10 for a premium position on the website and in the magazine. The minimum charge is £5. All prices exclude VAT.
Q. I am an RSCM Member, do I get a discount?
A. Yes! Affiliates and Individual Members receive a 50% discount when advertising in CMQ or on our website.
Q. How long will my advert remain live?
A. The fees above cover one addition of CMQ. Classifieds will be listed on our website for three months from the time they are processed, regardless of which issue of the magazine they are published in. Advertisers may request a web listing without publication in CMQ but are still required to pay the full price.
Q. What are the deadlines?

Q. Does advertising in CMQ work?
A. We certainly think so! See, for example, a few of the testimonials we have received: ‘I am glad to say that we have been able to make an appointment after advertising through RSCM. In fact, it was the most productive advertisement that we have ever placed – thank you!’ (John Everest, Halesowen Parish Church); ‘Within two days of the advert appearing on your website we had a successful application and the position is now filled!’ (John Culver, St Uny Church, Lelant)
Q. How do I get in touch?
A. Orders should be sent by email to cmq@rscm.com. A postal address should be included for billing purposes.
