Our Services

We Are Your Marketing Advisors

Certainly we enjoy being able to provide our customers with products to improve their brand, further relationships, and increase referrals and repeat business. More importantly, since our focus is on helping you build relationships, we work to establish that same relationship with our clients and customers.

Our Customer Service team follows a multi-step process that not only walks you through every step of the way but also educates and encourages you in making the most of our products.

Educate

Right away we start you with a walkthrough of our online management system for maintaining your publication or product. We'll take the time to make sure you really have the concept of how to best use these marketing tools to reach those who can help you grow your business.

Develop Position

You've got to have a goal. We help you to realize that goal and target your ad choices and products to meet those needs. Whether you want to be aggressive or passive in your approach, we have solutions for you. From custom ad creation to helping you choose just the right ad from our selection of hundreds of pre-made ads, our marketing advisors can help you find the right message to your subscribers.

Assess Your Network

We all have a list of core contacts and go-to people that we keep close. We've also got family and friends in positions to provide word-of-mouth and passive advertising for us. Taking a closer look at your address book and mailing list, our marketing advisors can help you find your hidden advocates and tailor your mailings to reach those who can become top-tier advocates for your business.

Follow Up

The first mailing is always the icebreaker. It introduces people to this high quality new gift from you. The nature of the product encourages the recipient to share its content and your information with others. But we like to take a more active follow-up approach and reach out to those who we have sent a magazine to. We encourage our clients to contact their subscribers to touch base about the publication. Discuss an article. Talk about a recipe. At the same time, encourage them to share the magazine and, simply put, ask for that all important referral. The energy and effort that you put into the personal contact will show fast results for your business. We'll remind you when it is time to follow-up and give you some tips on how to do it effectively.

Support

Once you become a customer, we don't leave you hanging. Our Customer Service team of marketing advisors is always available to help you navigate our online tools and answer any questions that you may have.

Graphically Speaking

Creating art is what we do. As a valued customer, you have access to all of our graphics services.

Ads and Graphics

With the opportunities to take control of your marketing within American Lifestyle magazine, there are just as many opportunities to make use of the many template ads that we provide free of charge. Our graphics staff has countless ideas and years of experience in creating great ads. Every day, our artists put together new and innovative template ads for you to choose from.

Looking for something custom? We can put together a coupon or custom tear out card that sends just the right message. We can help you to drive traffic to your Web site with effective and bold back cover artwork. The back inside cover of the magazine is the largest area available to you. Why not use it to send a really big message, or perhaps resell some ad space and offset your costs. Whatever your needs, for a minimal cost*, our artists can work their magic for you.

Want to make some of your own art? Have an ad of your own to use that isn't sized exactly for the magazine? Our production artists will resize it to print for our magazine with as little changes to the look of the ad as possible.

Photo Finishing

When you submit a photo to us, we will color correct and touch-up your photo for the best possible results. We look at each and every photo submitted for use on your magazine. This complementary service allows you to look your best.

Logo Design

Are you with a small company that doesn't have a logo of its own? Are you self-employed with no company affiliation? We can help you create* an identity with a company or personal logo design.

 

* Graphics costs, when applicable, are determined by the task to be performed, the lead time, and the amount of work involved. Our costs tend to be a fraction of those charged by a design firm or ad agency.
