What's in it for our advertising sponsors?
Today Magazine is the only true Farmington Valley magazine, based on local media data, because we reach all five core towns in the Valley — we mail to Granby, but the other two Valley mags don’t.
Here's the upside when you advertise in Today Magazine, the print-and-digital monthly publication that covers the heart of the Farmington Valley:
• Print + Digital — The best of both worlds
• 100% Distribution — Print edition reaches not only the entire upper-income demographic of Farmington,
Avon, Canton, Simsbury and Granby but also every other residence and every business in the Valley
• Circulation: 42,000+ — Two other Valley mags reach less than 20,000 with about 50% distribution
• Dynamic Digital Presence — In our digital edition, ads are linked to advertiser websites ...
and advertisers get another link in our Advertising Sponsors Directory
• Full-Color Glossy, Award-Winning — Managed by a five-time award-winning journalist
Every page of Today Magazine is full-color glossy — a classy, upscale look with ads and photos that really pop — so all of our ads are automatically full-color ... but another Valley mag is newsprint (except for the cover) and charges extra for full-color ads, so be sure to compare apples to apples. The look of newsprint leaves us flat. How about you?
Further, the other two Valley mags mail only to a limited upper-income demographic.
When you think of Today Magazine, think classy full-color glossy, with a long-lasting shelf life, mailed directly to everyone — not just wealthier Valley residents. At Today Magazine, we believe every Farmington Valley resident is valuable, regardless of income.
Conventional wisdom says it's beneficial for advertisers to reach only an upper-income audience, but we maintain the best value for our advertisers is reaching every address in the Valley with our award-winning news coverage — yes, Today Magazine reaches every residence and every business in the Farmington Valley ... including the Valley's entire all-inclusive upper-income demographic.
Ad Rates — Our circulation is more than double other Valley mags, but our ad rates are about the same.

A Cost-Effective Way to Expand Your Online Reach
• Details below
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 in just 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.
