The Resort Trades is published monthly as an Industry Information Source and Buying Guide. Our
philosophy is to produce the lowest cost advertising available while maintaining a high distribution into the
Creative Director Carrie Vandever
targeted market. The market is specifically the Resort Professional in all the United States. By utilizing
Composition Julia Nichols,
strict cost control and printing on plain web paper, we allow the small and medium sized companies to
compete and display their products to the national market. Our national advertising rates are lower than
Ken Rowland, Tiffany Lewis
most local newspaper rates, and we enjoy a high advertiser retention and satisfaction. Most advertisers
Controller Karlee Rohr
participate in our highly discounted repetitive contract program, and are monthly customers. To sum our
philosophy: Low Cost, Repetitive, Consistent Exposure, and Highly Targeted Distribution.
