4 Must Have Facts That Successful Advertisers Demand

  1. Total Circulation: AOA guarantees you that a minimum of 10,000 magazines will be mailed in the San Gabriel Valley, South Bay and Orange & San Diego Counties. 14,000 issues in the San Fernando Valley and 18,000 in the Los Angeles County area! Actually, more than this has consistently been mailed.
  2. Paid Subscribers: AOA is the largest apartment association in Southern California -- over 12,000 loyal members. Don't be confused by the number of "readership" and/or "total circulation" with no membership. Paid subscribers is what the professional looks for!
  3. Cost Per Issue Circulated: AOA's price is based on the fact that we mail out more magazines for you! Check the monthly rate against the number of issues mailed, and you'll see that AOA has low, low prices!
  4. Magazines Printed & Mailed: AOA prints more, and mails more and is read more . . . Giving you the best return for your hard earned money!
By using the AOA Buyers Guide, you get...
  • Circulation: Circulation is one of the major keys to your success. AOA guarantees that a minimum number of magazines will be mailed and we have been known to sometimes exceed that number! You can reach over 100,000 customers with AOA!  Rotating the mailing list can help you reach even more potential customers than just the number that is mailed each month.  It is our goal for your ad to reach every apartment owner and property management company in the geographic area that you choose!
  • Discounts: A 5%, 10% or even 15% discount is available depending on the number of issues in which you advertise!
  • You Benefit From Membership Loyalty: Another reason so many owners read our magazine is loyalty! We have the largest membership of apartment owners and Property Managers in Southern California -- they pay to belong and many are loyal to their association magazine and advertisers!
  • Property Management Companies: In addition to the property managers who are AOA members, we maintain a list of all the Property Management Companies we can find in each geographic area. These managers manage both residential and commercial properties. As we rotate our mailings, it is our goal that this extra list of Property Management companies will receive your ad at least six times during the year.
  • Inserts: This is when you print your ad on a special 8" x 10" piece of paper and we insert it in the magazine. When the reader opens the magazine, your ad can fall out into his lap. You can print both sides and we recommend that you use a colored paper so that it really stands out. One study showed that using color in an ad can increase your reader response from 30% to an astounding 180 %! All inserts must be printed on 20 pound Printers Bond.

    All inserts are inserted individually by hand.

    Costs for 8" x 10" inserts:

    $65 per thousand for 10,000-25,000
    $60 per thousand for 26,000 +

    (Inserts must be printed on 20 lb. bond paper, and can be folded)

  • It Takes Time If you are looking for an immediate short term response, use direct mail or the Trade Show. For steady long term growth, use the AOA magazine in combination with direct mail and/or the Trade Show.

    The key to your success is repetition! Your prospects must see your ad over and over, again and again! When they do need your product or service and they start searching through the Association Magazine, your company will then look familiar and they will know that you have been in business for more than just a few months.

  • The AOA Trade Shows The "AOA Expo" is one of the largest apartment industry events of the year in Southern California! It is held twice a year during the months of April and October. Thousands of owners and property managers from all over the state flock to these Trade Shows to see the latest in products and services being offered to apartment owners and property management companies.

But why should I spend money to advertise?.....

Why aren't more Apartment Owners And Property Management Companies doing business with you now? First, we will assume that you have a good product and/or service that is priced right. They can't do business with you until they know who you are and what you have to offer. You can now use AOA to reach out to these big volume buyers. If you stand on the sideline while your competitors are contacting your current and potential clients, these buyers will soon be doing business with your competitors! "Out of sight, out of mind." Some of your customers could be attending the big AOA Trade Show at the Convention Center. (If you're there, you'll increase referrals from your customers who meet you there AND you'll make hundreds of new contacts.)
Your Business Should Come Out Of Hiding Now! Join together with the largest group of vendors, apartment owners and property management companies at one of our largest gatherings of the year, The AOA Trade Show's are held at the Los Angeles Convention Center in October, and at the Long Beach Convention Center in April.

Why Do So Many Buyers & Vendors Attend? There are three good and dynamic reasons:
