This is ARIZONA

Our CANYON isn’t the only thing that’s GRAND! Welcome to LGBTQ+ Arizona

WELCOME!

In the last 50 years the population of Arizona has grown faster than any other state. Now Phoenix, our state capital and business epicenter, is the 5th largest city in the country. In fact, in the last 50 years, the population of Phoenix has tripled while New York City only increased around 10% during that same time.

Phoenix, Tucson and Tempe have all scored 100 in the most recent HRC Municipal Equality Index. It’s not just smart senior citezens chosing to live in the desert. The average age of an Arizonan is now 38 years old.

Additionally, the LGBTQ+ community has an estimated $1 trillion in discretionary spending power nationally.

Since 2001 ION Arizona has been bringing the most fun, sexy, entertaining and informative lifestyle print publication in the state. Since then we have grown our magazine and portfolio to include: our digital magazine, an interactive website, e-mail blasts, social media; we recently introduced the ION Arizona app. So many ways to reach our growing and lucrative community. One call, one price, one community. All eyes are on Arizona!

The possibilities are endless. Discover your new frontier!

Jack M. Tesorero President/Publisher

If it’s not in ION ARIZONA it’s not happening!

Since 2001 ION Arizona Magazine has focused on the active LGBTQ+ members of our community. The people who go out, the people who donate, those who volunteer and the residents who shape Arizona.

The internet and social media have done a great job of educating our community about news, politics and opinion. What it can’t do is put a face to the heart and soul of the Arizona LGBTQ+ community. That’s what we do. And we do it well.

Now you can be a part of the excitement of our growing community. Let ION be your path to success!

your MEDIA The Original Influencer

DIGITAL

Before the new millenium a newspaper used to be the only way to reach the LGBTQ+ community. Today there are many ways to communicate — but it all starts with the original influencer’s publication: ION Arizona Magazine.

While some ION readers prefer social media, others enjoy e-mail blasts, many like website exclusives, but overall our eye-catching publication is fundamental. To maximize your results we utilize the power of print and all available digital mediums.

While it starts with print, that’s just the beginning. Nobody understands our community more than ION Arizona. No other marketing agency is more integrated and represents our voice with more conviction.

ION Arizona: More than a magazine. A lifestyle.
