| Executive Summary
Area Development is well known among economic development
agencies in the USA, Canada, and Mexico as a free circulation monthly magazine
in this niche. Articles are fairly well-researched, and although
contributed articles are published, these are generally edited rather than
pure "advertorials".
The publisher also exhibits and distributed copies at various
trade shows each year, and does significant custom publishing work for
economic development organizations.
Some site
selection consultants have contributed articles to address specific topics according to the editorial calendar and
current interests of readers. These may demonstrate their expertise for such issues, but are generally professional presentations rather than simply PR pieces for their services.
The editor is known to have rejected such contributions when not
considered appropriate or adequately researched to meet the interests and
quality expectations of readers.
Information for various states, with related advertiser
content, can be obtained through their LocationUSA.com website.
Available industrial building property listings from current advertisers are found through the FastFacility.com website. |

Advertising and PR history :
October 2002 issue 1/2 pg BW ad in annual
directory
Our "Advertising
Recall" service highlights advertising in this or other media
by economic development representatives and other
professionals in this direct investment niche. This enables executives and their advisors to find the
advertisers when they need them for their projects, regardless of when and
where the ads appeared.
We do not list all advertisements, as there is a small fee
for them to be highlighted through this annual service. The websites
of the publishers will usually list only their recent advertisers for
reference. We make it easy to find their ads at any time through
searchable text and thumbnail images in relevant directories and other
content. |
