“Living Magazine has been a long-term partner and advertising source for Hobert Pools. It is a high-quality publication that has allowed us to maintain a consistent presence in various markets throughout DFW. The associates behind the publication are excellent in their fields including sales, composition, photography, and design. They are extremely efficient and easy to work with and can pull together to generate sales.”
Living Magazine is one of the best publications in our area and I personally love reading it . The hospital has done numerous articles and the return on investment has definitely paid off; just recently we did a cover article regarding one of our new service lines and many of the referrals came from reading that article. I highly recommend Living Magazine!
“We’ve been advertising with Living Magazine for over 10 years now, and since the very beginning it has been a great experience. Their exceptionally high quality of work and professionalism makes them easy and enjoyable to work with. Michelle and Keri have always been incredibly helpful and resourceful to us. We could not imagine a better team for our ads, which send us an incredible amount of business.”
“My experience advertising the school in Living Magazine has always been positive. Collaborating with Abbie on ideas for covers is always so fun, and very productive. The writers create great copy, and are always receptive to any tweaks I ask for. The end product is always something we are very proud of.”
