We Can Help You Create Advertising That Works!

Natural Awakenings Magazine is dedicated to helping your local business thrive. We’re successful when you are successful!

• Reach local, well-educated, health-conscious readers seeking products and services to support and/or improve personal, communal, and planetary health and well-being.
• Feature your business prominently next to local, national and international cutting-edge information/events and editorial.
• Reinforce your commitment to the environment in the eyes of your customers with our earth-friendly advertising (Natural Awakenings Magazine is committed to social responsibility and sustainability in our business practices. We print on recycled paper and use soy-based ink).

We help our readers get to know community businesses, so we encourage multi-faceted participation from our advertisers. Advertisers receive opportunities for greater exposure with potential appearances throughout the magazine (ads, complimentary monthly calendar listings, a free news brief/article potential, web exposure), during the course of each year. This “value-added” aspect of advertising with Natural Awakenings Magazine makes our already-comparable prices unbeatable!

The CRGs are in a special section at the back of the magazine which lists advertisers by category for readers who are looking for specific products or services.

CRG listings typically include business name (or business owner’s name), business location (list town only if business location is a private residence), contact phone number, email, and/or website, four header lines for contact information, a brief description written as a single paragraph and a headshot photo or logo, which helps readers establish a personal connection and/or familiarity with you/your company.
