PRINT + DIGITAL
Magazine Size
8.5 inches x 11 inches
Since the financial fallout of the COVID shutdown and other factors have interrupted our monthly print edition, we are publishing a digital-exclusive monthly magazine
What's in it for our advertising sponsors?
Simple — the win-win of a rare opportunity for you to boost your brand while investing in Connecticut's Farmington Valley community and beyond.
Today Publishing produces a true Valley magazine because we cover and reach all five core Valley towns — Avon • Canton • Farmington • Granby • Simsbury
——————————————
Today Magazine, our monthly digital publication, reaches the global online world and is emblazoned across our extensive social media platforms — with ads linked to advertiser websites.
——————————————
We also publish our unique take on community news in Today Online — our news site with budget-friendly ad rates.
• By the way, we've reduced our digital ad rates — Ad Rates
• Can you afford a $50 ad? That's where our rates now start — really!
——————————————
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 — Today Magazine is mailed to the entire upper-income audience of the Farmington Valley.
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 — because of course every 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 unique local 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.
• Our print circulation is more than double other Valley mags ... far better Cost Per 1000
——————————————
• Covering the Heart of the Farmington Valley and Beyond
• Recording Connecticut's Underreported Upside
• Five Towns • One Aim — Exceptional Community Journalism
Here's the upside when you advertise in our print-and-digital publication that covers the heart of the Farmington Valley and beyond:
• Print + Digital — The best of both worlds
• 100% Distribution — Print edition reaches not only the entire upper-income demographic of Avon, Canton, Farmington, Granby and Simsbury but also every other Valley residence and business
• Circulation: 42,000+ — Two other Valley mags reach less than 20,000
• 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 an award-winning journalist
Our Print + Digital Special Edition is in the works — and having Today Magazine in print certainly benefits every advertiser who wants to reach the strategic Valley market. Here's why...

• Discounted Rate — $50 per ad with 6-Month Recurring Ad Campaign in Today Magazine
• Cost-Effective Way to Expand Your Digital Reach — more details below in ORDER AD section
———————————————
TO REVIEW — When you advertise in our print-and-digital magazine, your message is mailed to all the homes, businesses, condos, apartments and P.O. boxes in all five Valley towns —
100% distribution, a robust circulation of 42,000+ addresses.
Two other Valley mags are mailed only to a smaller subset of homes primarily in four Valley towns, a limited upper-income demographic. One has a circulation of less than 20,000 addresses, another is at about 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, whatever their income.
Our goal is exceptional community journalism — and for local journalism to truly be community journalism, our award-winning magazine needs to reach everyone in the Valley ... of course!
