The Front Cover & Inside Cover Spread

Our signature cover feature combines the front cover with a two-page inside cover spread. Several businesses come together to create one styled cover scene, with each participating business also highlighted individually inside.


Front cover

Our front cover is a collaborative feature: several businesses come together to create one beautiful styled scene.

$500
Your business is featured as part of the collaborative front-cover scene, with your product or service incorporated into the image.
On the cover

Your product or service styled into the shared cover scene, shot by our photographer.

Inside too

Approximately 1/4 page on the two-page inside cover spread, highlighting your business, showing what you contributed to the cover scene, and including your business information.

Why it works

Front-cover exposure plus dedicated space inside the magazine, all included in one $500 cover package.

Front cover, full bleed.


Inside Cover Spread

The cover story continues inside. Each business participating in the front cover receives approximately ¼ page on the two-page inside cover spread.

Each space highlights the business, identifies the product or service contributed to the cover scene, and includes the business's information, giving readers a clear way to connect the cover with the businesses behind it.

Your contribution

Advertising

All advertisements are subject to our approval. We reserve the right to refuse or cancel any advertisement at our discretion. Advertisers are responsible for the content of their ads and confirm that they hold the rights to any artwork, logos and photos they send us.

Directory and outside links

Every business that advertises in The Connection receives a free listing in the business directory on this website. The listing stays up after the ad runs, at no extra cost.

Last updated September 2026

The Connection SF is committed to making this website usable for everyone, including people with disabilities. We work toward the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, level AA.

  • Images carry text descriptions, and form fields have labels and spoken error messages.
  • Text and backgrounds are chosen for readable contrast, and pages reflow on phones without sideways scrolling.

Known limits

Our past issues are shown as page images from the printed magazine, which a screen reader cannot read aloud. If you need an issue in another format, contact us and we will help.
