Advertising & Partnerships

Reach the readers who move markets.

Montlior Media places considered brands beside the journalism that Coravia's decision-makers read first — with scarcity, with craft, and with a wall between us and the newsroom.

The house rule

Advertising that never crosses the floor.

Montlior Media has been a separate company since 1984, with its own board and no access to editorial systems, embargoed copy or forward news schedules. Advertisers have no sight of, and no influence over, what Montlior News publishes.

That separation is not a constraint on what we can sell. It is the reason our inventory is worth buying. A reader who trusts the page brings that trust to everything on it — which is why we sell a small number of large, well-made placements rather than a great many small ones.

Solutions

Five ways to be read in the same room.

Each is sold by position rather than by impression, and each is made by people who have never filed a word for Montlior News.

01 — Print & Display

Four units. Never two in succession.

The Montlior page is deliberately under-sold. No more than four commercial units appear on any page, never above the masthead and never between a headline and its story. What an advertiser buys is not an impression. It is a position, on a page a reader has already chosen to give their attention to.

  • Billboard, leaderboard, feature panel and rail square
  • Front, section, article and edition positions
  • Out-of-home across fourteen Coravian cities
  • Every unit labelled “Advertisement”, without exception

Print & display in detail

02 — Branded Content Studio

Journalism's craft, on the advertiser's side of the wall.

Fifty-one writers, designers, photographers and editors who have never filed for Montlior News, and never will. The Studio makes reported features, essays, data pieces and print supplements that carry a brand's name and meet the house standard for sourcing, accuracy and design. Every piece is labelled at the top.

  • Reported features, essays and photo-essays
  • Data and visual journalism
  • Print supplements and collector editions
  • Independent fact-checking on every commission

03 — Film & Audio

Made in Meridale and Valcourt.

Two studios, a standing crew, and the picture archive of a house that has been photographing Coravia since 1962. We make brand documentaries, interview series and audio for the Montlior podcast slate — commissioned, produced, graded and distributed inside the same building.

  • Brand documentary and short film
  • Interview, panel and explainer series
  • Podcast sponsorship and bespoke audio
  • A forty-seat screening room in Meridale for premieres

04 — Newsletters & Editions

The most attentive twelve minutes of a reader's day.

Eleven editorial newsletters reach 840,000 subscribers before eight in the morning. Sponsorship is single-slot: one brand, one edition, above a rule — with the subscriber count and open rate reported to the partner in the same week the edition ships.

  • Eleven titles, each with one sponsor slot
  • 840,000 subscribers · 58% median open rate
  • Digital editions and the app front page
  • Verified weekly reporting, not modelled estimates

Newsletters in detail

05 — Events & Summits

Two hundred people who would otherwise be unreachable.

The Coravia Capital Summit, the Meridale Industry Forum and eleven smaller convenings each year, chaired by Montlior editors. Partners take the room, the record and the delegate list. They do not take the programme, which remains editorial from first session to last.

  • Headline, sessional and dinner partnership
  • Private roundtables of twelve to twenty
  • Delegate lists weighted to board level
  • Filmed, edited and published by the Studio
