WHY PRINT CONTINUES TO MAKE AN IMPRESSION
GETTING ATTENTION
There are fewer magazines and print newsletters in the mail, so more attention is paid to each piece.
WHAT'S OLD IS NEW AGAIN
As social media progresses, online content and iPad applications may be overwhelming. More and more people are attempting to disconnect themselves from digital media, feeling overwhelmed by the sheer volume. Many marketers are continuing to leverage print as something of value in their marketing mix.
PRINT STILL EXCITES PEOPLE
The printed word is still perceived as more credible to many people than anything on the web.
NO AUDIENCE DEVELOPMENT COSTS
Distributed directly to membership or subscriber lists that are continually updated, print magazines enable advertisers to effectively reach a current and accurate target audience. There are no mailing list development, maintenance or retention costs for advertisers in these printed publications.
