Our 21st Annual Conference on April 29, 2010 was a great success. We had outstanding attendance at the advertising, management, editorial and design training sessions. The day culminated with the 2010 GAMMA Awards luncheon. Congratulations to all the Bronze, Silver, and Gold winners, and Garden & Gun, winner of the Grand GAMMA Award.

"Membership in MAGS provides opportunities for our staff to share experiences with and learn from some of the best in the business. Our entire publishing team looks forward to the annual MAGS conference and always comes away with new insights, ideas and energy."
Cindy McDaniel, Publisher

"As a first-time attendee, I was blown away by the MAGS conference. I left pumped up and with my head swimming with great, actionable ideas, plus the business cards of some publishers and editors I’d been dying to make contact with. Count me in for next year."
Steffen Smith, Owner

» Associate Membership

MAGS is the primary resource for finding the best vendors. The challenge of finding a good vendor-partner is complex – much more than paper stock and price or thumbing through a phone book. The best vendors are business partners that can think and do without lots of hand holding. Their job is to counsel a client if a tip-on is better than a blow-in, even if it means less profit for the vendor.

Good vendors keep a magazine’s production staff current on new technologies, deliver on time and provide an intelligible invoice. MAGS’ Associate (vendor) members are highly respected, considered the best in their respective fields, and they’re fellow association members we can feel comfortable turning to for our outsourcing needs.

MAGS Associate Sponsor Membership has been simplified for 2012.
There is one basic sponsorship level available at a cost of $2500 for the year.

MAGS 2012 Associate Membership Includes:
• Annual Membership Dues
• Company Listing on MAGS website with logo & hotlink
• Booth at 2012 MAGS Conference on May 17, 2012 with 2 attendees
• Two attendees at each additional MAGS events in 2012
