Special Advertising Opportunities with IG Living Magazine

Companies have a variety of advertising options to choose from, including run-of-book or special placement advertisements on a one-time or more frequent basis (for discounted rates). Other advertising opportunities include inserts, belly bands, poly bags, custom posters and reprints. Whatever your needs, IG Living can accommodate them!

Multiple opportunities maximize your marketing impact:
