BluePrint Advertising Bundles
Below are the featured bundles BluePrint offers for our design and advertising services. Each bundle offers commonly requested services at discounted rates. All reserved locations will hang for 7 days at a time. The bundle fees include everything listed within and cannot be modified or combined with other bundles for further discounts. Only one bundle may be chosen per event, but this does not prohibit a client from ordering additional, non-bundled services from BluePrint. Any intricate designs that will require more hours than the included amount, will be assessed a design fee for time after the initial amount. A 7 business day lead time is required to complete all designs and avoid rush processing fees. If you do not choose a bundle to advertise with, you can choose from our services individually, but there will not be a discount applied.

If you have any questions on potential fees, please speak with a BluePrint employee for further explanation.
Design Fee
A standard fee of $20.00/hour will be charged to all standard design projects. A minimum of one hour will be assessed on any design. This will be based on total time to complete all designs associated with a client order from inception to final client approval. Time will only be tracked on actual design process, not print or email correspondence time. BluePrint staff can estimate the time to complete a project, but final hours may vary. A final, total time, will be assessed, upon the final approval of the project by the client. BluePrint attains the rights to any original designs created by our designers. Customers may retain original working files for an additional $20 filing fee.
Editing Fee
To edit an existing design after its initial approval, an additional fee of $5.00 will be charged. These include, but are not limited to, multiple re-sizings, color changes and text edits. Excessive edits may result in a design fee charge.
Grommets
For any project requiring additional grommets beyond the standard amount, a fee of $0.50/banner will be applied.
Rush Processing Fee
A rush processing fee will be added if the design order is placed within seven business days from the pickup/hang date. Rush processing fees are added to the total cost as follows: 14% per day less than 7 business days.
Cancellation Fee
A fee of $15.00 will be assessed if an organization reserves a space and cancels within seven days of the hang date. If design work and/or printing has been approved and completed, the client will still be charged for those services in addition to the cancellation fee.
Mounting Fee
A $10.00 mounting fee includes adhering printed product to a black matte board with a maximum size of 20” x 30”. Additional sizes upon request.
Recycled Mounting Fee
If you have previously mounted a project and wish to reuse the board or bring your own black matte board, the mounting fee is $5.00.
Filing Fee
