Distribution
Focused
TheHomeMag is mailed to the top half of the best single family, predominately owner occupied homes in a given marketplace. The mailing list for our magazines are updated 6 times annually, every two months, to ensure accuracy and that only the best possible homes are receiving this publication. Our level of penetration into the top homes in your market is second to none.
We promote home improvement and home enhancement products and services only. No drycleaners, pizza coupons, oil changes, or car deals. Home improvement ideas and products only. Additionally, our magazine is 100% advertising and is completely free of editorials and advertorials. It’s the visual that creates the emotion – and that’s what makes the decision.

Cost-Effective At mere pennies per top-qualified home, your advertising investment is exactly that – an investment in your business future with the leading recurring return on your investment. You cannot find a more cost beneficial means to promote your business and to drive traffic.
When you advertise in TheHomeMag, our readers immediately accept your business as a reputable and honest local merchant in their area. Credibility in the marketplace is vital to the growth of any business, and yours will gain instant validation by being a part of TheHomeMag.
Repetition
Shelf Life Rather should we say coffee table life? TheHomeMag has a proven retention life of over 30 days per issue, with nearly half of our nationwide magazines seeing 2 months or more. That’s particularly important as your advertising dollars will double and even triple in strength in the hands of the homeowners. Repetitive plus Retention equals Results!
TheHomeMag lands in the best mailboxes every month, 12 times annually, on the same consistent weekend. These mailboxes are your entry in the homes of those homeowners that are capable of making the decision to buy the products or services you’re promoting. Your readers will come to expect the magazine as their only source to improve their home.
eMagazine
Proven Our ads get results, and we prove it. Our exclusive call-tracking system allows you to monitor the results of your advertising investment. Listen to calls, set appointments, map customers, and get reports. It is more than an ad – it’s an advertising and marketing campaign that offers measurable results.
In addition to our leading paper magazine, your company is featured in our digital magazine every month as well. As our magazines are landing in mailboxes throughout your area, the digital version of TheHomeMag is simultaneously hitting inboxes. Your internet presence just became a reality, not virtuality.
Design
Quantity To put it plain and simple – we directly mail more home improvement magazines to more single family homes in any marketplace than any other publication out there. It’s not just more. It’s carefully planned advertising saturation and that’s how a business gets stronger leads.
Designing call generating and call-to-action ads is our specialty – and one of the more important reasons you will remain in TheHomeMag. Staying true to our 80% visual standard allows you to paint an emotional picture of your product or service in the minds of your potential customer.

TheHomeMag is a HIT. People are reading it and responding to our ad. Calls are coming in fast. People are interested. Clearly, you’ve got a winner on your hands…Count us in! Keep up the good work.” – Mitchell Reed, LeafFilter NW House of Window Coverings Click to listen – Christoper Breiter, Owner
