PORTICO MOUNTAIN BROOK 2016 MEDIA GUIDE
PORTICOMOUNTAIN BROOK2016 MEDIA GUIDE
Thank you for considering our magazine to market your incredible products and ser-vices. Though Portico Mountain Brook is new, our publishing and marketing experience is not. This same group of publishers has been producing award- winning magazines for over twenty years, including the original Portico Birmingham, Thicket Magazine, Executive Traveler, The Official Guide to Mountain Brook, Home-wood Magazine and Vestavia Hills Living among countless other custom-published printed and digital products. We know that in order to give maximum boost to your advertising dollars, we have to deliver a product that folks can’t wait to get their hands on and talk about. This we can do.
Our magazine does three things very well:
1) We reach 100% of our audience. Every Mountain Brook resident gets an issue delivered into their mailbox.
2) We reach beyond Mountain Brook with a free digital issue. We also sell print issues throughout the city. This additional circulation is not included in our ad rates.
3) We deliver a compelling high-end visually appealing magazine to match the community we live in.
Our quarterly magazine will stimulate, educate and entertain this affluent audience with interesting people, places and things. As much as anything, our hope is to partner with you to deliver something new, exciting and different to a well deserving, well-heeled community.
If we can answer any questions, please let us know. We believe in Portico Mountain Brook and would be honored to tell you more.
