Business ProfileforLiturgical Publications, Inc.

June of 2023 I had hired Liturgical Publications to place an ad in my church bulletin. It was a larger ad supposed to be placed at the top page next to the bulletin. From the beginning, once published I advised them, I could not see the ad in the email attachment. I was told by **** that she could, if you only slide the page over. I advised her not acceptable as potential customers will not even know the add is there unless they perform that function. I asked parishioners if they could see my ad and they all replied no they could not. I had also prior to the original publication ordered a smaller ad of the same to be placed on the ad section of the bulletin. The real-world version that of print was so small that I had a difficult time finding the ad. I again asked parishioners if they could find my ad, they said no. The first ad, the large one on the front page (note published to the very far right on the email and not within the actual page of the bulletin). That fee was a onetime annual at $250. and had been charge three weeks prior. The next fee was to be drawn monthly, this was for the small add, apparently to small for my elderly potential clients to see, so the ad had no effect. Please also note the website I had, now close due to lack of traffic, has a site counter for anytime someone enters the site. No one entered when Liturgical Publications, they only advertisement was active. Both my wife and I had several conversations with ****, she dismissed the large add issue and advised that potential viewers needed to slide the page over to see. the smaller ad, she said that was unfortunate my potential clients could not see. I advised her to cancel the ad, and I required a refund of the $250 and they were not authorized to charge my card for the monthly ad. and that there was no way I was going to pay them. As there is now a Collections apparently proceeding, I am now filing a complaint with the ********* **** of ******** and my local Archdiocese.
