How to Apply
Complete the online application and submit an initial audit deposit to ABC.
Non-paid Newspapers:
- ABC can audit non-paid newspapers if the newspaper is owned or operated by an ABC member and has at least 50 percent of its circulation derived form home-delivery.
- You can expect a customized estimate within five business days and additional information from an ABC representative providing you with further instructions.
How to Apply

Membership Publicity
Once you receive an ABC membership application acknowledgement letter, you can use the phrase "ABC Membership Applied For" to let your advertisers know that your initial Audit Report is pending.
The ABC logo can only be used after full membership status has been granted with the release of your initial Audit Report.
