A Cost-Effective Way to Expand Your Digital Reach
• Details below — at bottom of this page

• NEWS FROM TODAY MAGAZINE ONLINE 

TO REVIEW  When you advertise in Today Magazine, your message is mailed to all homes, all businesses, all condos, 
all apartments and all P.O. boxes 
in all five Valley towns — a robust circulation of 42,000-plus addresses

     Other Valley magazines are mailed only to a smaller subset

of homes primarily in four Valley towns, a limited upper-income demographic. One has a circulation of just shy of 20,000 addresses, another is at only 12,000. 

     Today Magazine reaches not only the Valley's complete upper-income demographic but also every other business and residence in the Farmington Valley — from the highest-income household to the lowest. We believe all Valley residents are valuable, regardless of income. 

     Plus, Today Magazine reaches the far-flung online world with our digital edition each month. 

     Our goal is exceptional community journalism — and for community journalism to truly be community journalism, our award-winning magazine needs to reach everyone in the Valley.

LONG SHELF LIFE

A full-color, glossy monthly magazine is ideal for a durable shelf life.

     With winsome and robust features, Today Magazine gives readers many reasons to return throughout the month — the calendar of events, for example — meaning more opportunities for people to peruse our news and see our ads.

     Compared with newspapers and newsprint magazines that tend to be quickly recycled, our glossy monthly magazine is more likely to be displayed on coffee tables, in reception areas, and wherever readers want to learn about local news ... and local businesses.
