BIRPOA relies on membership dues but ads on the website also contribute. The website averages 20 visitors per day and local suppliers may want to advertise products and services, and members may want to advertise boats, cottages or other items for sale.

BIRPOA will post unobtrusive ads judged useful to its members.

• For suppliers, the annual cost of a 25-word ad, including logo and website reference if applicable, will be set to the annual membership fee (currently $40). Advertisers may pay in advance for one or more years. Minor editing to the ad will be free during the period it runs.
• Members may submit ads for free, as a service supported by their membership dues.
