Our "Departments"

Allegheny West Magazine includes various departments -- some occasional, others as regular columns -- in its publications. These include:

Three bi-monthly editions of Allegheny West Magazine are mailed FREE by the U.S. Postal Service to 40,000 homes and businesses in the area. In addition, our team distributes 10,000 more copies to 500 + stores, hotels, restaurants, businesses, and other venues in the area surrounding Pittsburgh International Airport in these communities: Clinton, Findlay, Imperial, North Fayette, Oakdale, Sturgeon, McDonald, Robinson, Kennedy, Ingram, Thornburg, Pennsybury, Moon and Crescent.

1. Total saturation (100% coverage) of 14+ communities surrounding Pittsburgh International Airport--every home and almost every business receives the bi-monthly magazine.
2. Rates are lower than any other magazine of its type and quality in Allegheny County.
3. Everyone receives your message at the same time. No hit or miss. It’s guaranteed. You don’t have to wait for someone to subscribe or pick it up on a rack at a store.
4. Mailed to over 1000 business owners and managers in the airport area -- the decision-makers of their businesses.
5. Statistical studies show that people generally will support the businesses in their communities if they know what those businesses offer in products and services. National studies also show that people generally will shop within five to ten miles of their home.
6. Your message is presented on high quality paper in a professionally printed and produced publication that readers want to read. As a result, your advertising message is presented in partnership with information popular with our readers, so your ad will be seen more readily.
7. The cost for an advertiser/business/ organization to prepare, print, and mail an announcement would far exceed the cost incurred than when Allegheny West Magazine does it for you.
8. Our staff designs your ad to your complete satisfaction, saving you the time and money to do it yourself. And, it’s included in the cost of the ad.
9. We offer REDUCED rates for multiple insertions to help you save costs.
10. Multiple insertions need not be consecutive. Use your multiple insertions throughout the year based on your seasonal and budget needs.
11. We invoice by the issue, not all up front. It’s our way of helping you to manage your budget and monthly costs.
12. We offer complete FLEXIBILITY when you commit to an ongoing advertising campaign. The space is yours ... we will help you redesign your ad or message for each additional insertion you’ve scheduled. And there’s no additional cost (unless extensive art work or multiple photos are used).
13. We are COMMUNITY ORIENTED. We offer non-profit rates at slightly half the cost of regular advertising.
14. Your ad receives "triple exposure." How? The ad itself, an alphabetized directory, by business category, in every issue, and an indefinite presence on our web site with links to your web site.
15. We deliver QUALITY. Our publications and programs have garnered over two dozen state and national awards and honors.
16. Our staff is EXPERIENCED. We’re comprised of seasoned professionals in the communications field with more than 75 years of combined experience in writing, public relations, photography, marketing, and graphic design.
