Advertising in a publication? Here's what every great print ad needs. ✅ A clear, compelling headline ✅ Your logo ✅ A single, focused message ✅ A call to action ✅ Your contact information ✅ White space The best print ads do one thing really well.

Fall is our busiest season in publishing, and for good reason. Conferences. AGMs. Back to business energy. Year-end advertiser budgets. Holiday deadlines. If your fall issue isn't already in production, now is the time. #AssociationPublishing #FallPublishing

So you've decided to launch a publication. Amazing! But one of the first questions we always get is, who do we send it to? The goal isn't the biggest list. It's the RIGHT list. Have a question about your mailing list? Let's talk.

Happy International Beer Day! Great beer and great publishing have a lot in common; both take skill, both get better with experience, and both keep people coming back for more. Cheers to every editor who's ever celebrated a deadline. What's your drink of choice? #beerday

We're back with another #CanadianPress style fact that might surprise you... In CP style, numbers one through nine are spelled out in words. 10 and above are written as numerals. You'd be amazed how often this one slips through. Did you know this rule?

Wishing everyone a wonderful long weekend! Our offices will be closed today for the civic holiday but we'll be back bright and early Tuesday, ready to get to work. However you're spending the long weekend, we hope it's a good one. #LongWeekend #augustlongweekend

The new issue of The Potash Producer is out now! This issue brings you the latest stories, news, and developments from one of the world's most essential industries. Head to the link in our bio to read the latest digital issue. #PotashProducer #Potash #Mining

The biggest trend in publishing isn’t bigger audiences, it’s better ones. Niche publications win on engagement, loyalty, and trust. Association mags did it first. Before algorithms, it was already the strategy. #PublishedTruths

The One‑Sentence Test is one of the simplest ways to strengthen any ad, article, or announcement: if you can’t express your main point in one clean sentence, the message needs tightening. Strong editing leads to stronger impact, and readers notice the difference. #editorialtips

When your member reads your publication, they're not scrolling past ads. Not clicking "skip". They're engaged, focused, and they trust what they're reading. That's the power of print advertising. Are your sponsors missing out? Let's talk.

An outdated mailing list means wasted copies, returned mail, and sponsors reaching nobody. Review and update before every single issue. When did you last audit yours? #AssociationPublishing #MailingList

Annual or biannual... which is right for your organization? Go annual if your budget is limited or content is evergreen. Go biannual if your industry moves fast and you want more member touchpoints. Not sure? Let's talk. #AssociationPublishing

We don't just design and produce publications, we partner with associations and chambers across North America to make the whole process as smooth as possible, from first draft to final print. If you're ready to launch or refresh a publication, we'd love to help.

You submitted "Executive Director". We published "executive director". Canadian Press style lowercases job titles — it's one of hundreds of small editorial calls that make your publication look and read like the credible resource your members expect. #publishing #CanadianPress

Not sure if your association/chamber needs its own publication? Ask yourself this: ✅ Members always asking "what's going on?" ✅ Sponsors struggling to reach your audience? ✅ Want to be THE resource in your community? If you nodded at even one, then you need a publication.

B.C. Tugboat spring 2026 is out now! From the waters of British Columbia to the people and industry that keep them moving, this issue is packed with the stories, news, and updates that matter most to the tugboat and marine community. flipbooks.delcommunications.com/BCTugboat-2026…

What makes the biggest tournament in soccer unforgettable isn't just the goals, it's the stories behind them. Facts tell you the score. Stories make you feel it. We believe every association, chamber, and organization has a story worth telling. Are you telling yours?

They said print was dead. Print did not get the memo. Association magazines still land on desks. Chamber newsletters still get read cover to cover. Members still look forward to them arriving. People don't want more content. They want content they can trust.

Happy Fourth of July to all our American friends, clients, and colleagues! 🇺🇸🎆 Here's to the power of the written word and the declaration that started it all. #FourthOfJuly #IndependenceDay #July4th
