Business Card Exchange

Your business card-style listing will appear alongside other industry professionals, making it easy for readers to find and contact you directly.

Rates are net and per insertion. Premium positions are an additional charge. Reservation is on a first-come, first-served basis.

Go beyond the publication

Catch readers’ attention by placing a flyer, brochure or postcard inside the clear bag in which the publication is mailed. Whether you are promoting an event, a new product or your entire product line, placing a direct-mail piece in the polybag with our publication will ensure tremendous exposure for your company.

Ensure your message is the first readers see by wrapping it around the publication with a belly band. Since readers must detach the belly band to access the rest of the publication, your ad is ideally placed to be noticed.

Additional mechanical charges may apply. Rate is per insertion. Reservation is on a first-come, first-served basis.

Member Listing Enhancement

Increase brand recognition of your business by adding highlights, company’s logo to your listing. Don’t miss your chance to stand out in front of members who are responsible for recommending, specifying and purchasing products and services on behalf of their organizations.
