{print} When you advertise in the magazine, here's what you're getting. Our readers pay focused attention to every aspect of our publication (they even write to us to critique our ads). Reserving print space truly maximizes your impression on our readers, especially because we are very intentional about who we will and won't partner with (sorry, McDonald's). We offer various sizes to fit your budget. How long you decide to run your ad is up to you -- the longer you stick with us, the cheaper each of your placements in the magazine becomes. Your print ad will be seen by our tightly knit community of 15,000+ focused, page-turning readers all around the world who will see your placement and care about it, because it's in their publication. And, as a partner, you'll have a presence at all of our global community events. You'll probably want to review our terms and print out our order form first, but when you're ready to reserve your space just contact us. We'll find a placement that matches your goals and budget (we can help design your ad too).
