Back-to-school and the holidays are not just shopping seasons; they are chances to shine in your neighborhood. Here’s how local magazines help businesses reach readers and make a lasting impression.

Why Local Magazines Work

Local magazines are not just seen, they are trusted. Residents engage with content, follow recommendations, and act on what inspires them. Combining print with digital campaigns multiplies your reach:

  • Targeted Reach: Connect with readers in your community who are ready to shop.
  • Long-Lasting Visibility: Magazines stay in homes for weeks, keeping your brand top of mind.
  • Digital Boost: Social posts and email campaigns extend your message online.

Back-to-School Tips

Make your campaigns practical and helpful for families in the neighborhood:

  • Plan Ahead: Launch ads before the back-to-school or holiday rush.
  • Highlight Solutions: Showcase products or services that make life easier, like school supplies, tech, tutoring, or after-school programs.
  • Offer Incentives: Promotions, bundles, or coupons encourage immediate action.
  • Bridge Print and Digital: Use QR codes or links to guide readers online.

Holiday Tips

The holidays are about gifts, experiences, and local discoveries:

  • Make Gifts Shine: Show how your offerings create thoughtful holiday moments.
  • Tell a Story: Festive visuals, storytelling, and clear calls to action captivate readers.
  • Create Urgency: Highlight limited-time deals to drive action.
  • Combine Channels: Amplify your print ad with digital campaigns for maximum impact.

  • Build credibility and trust within your community
