Ipswich’s own lifestyle magazine IpswichLife is the city’s only full colour gloss lifestyle magazine wholly produced in Ipswich, which means the money stays here, the employment stays here, and we promote Ipswich.

Published fortnightly, IpswichLife has twice the frequency of similar monthly magazines, which means we can deliver consistent, quality messages to our clients’ customers.

IpswichLife provides unique benefits for advertisers: • Targeted delivery to most Ipswich suburbs and to the RAAF Base at Amberley. We print 32,000 copies each fortnight.

• We directly target the widest Ipswich + Defence demographic - those with most spending power.

• Readers connect with informative, entertaining and positive stories that promote Ipswich as a great place to live, work and do business.

• Located in the heart of Ipswich Central , we play an integral role in the growth of the Ipswich business community through true engagement with business and community.

• We know the culture of the city, with preferred access to the city’s stakeholders: Ipswich City Council, Chambers of Commerce, business groups, and community leaders.

• We are truly local, and we intend to stay that way.

Expert, creative, results driven Our accredited journalists, photographers, editors and designers create magazines that are highly respected for quality, accuracy and dynamic design.Our team members have collectively more than 150 years experience, and we have been an Ipswich-based business for more than 25 years.

IpswichLife explores and publishes the stories that promote Ipswich: feelgood stories that people want to read, not negative, abrasive news. Your advertising investment is therefore more effective, as readers stay longer on each page to read good-news articles - and your marketing message.

A new way to market your business Traditional methods of marketing a business are out of date. These days, business proprietors require a coordinated, targeted approach. We believe that our clients deserve a media partner that engages continually with them, producing outcomes focused on increasing their business activity.

How do we help you market your business? Firstly, we assess your situation, expectations and marketing objectives, then we present a marketing plan that may include a package made up of press ads, flyers, brochures, booklets and an online presence.

We work with you to ensure that your marketing strategies are responsive, appropriate, cost-effective and, most importantly, have considerable added value – such as supporting editorial, help with business branding, social media and online marketing strategies.

We guarantee an ongoing partnership, focused on positive outcomes for our advertisers.
