As an artist or crafts-person, have you ever lamented the high cost of print (magazine) advertising, yet all the while knowing it is the best way to get the word out about your work to your targeted audience? Well, Matthew Mead recognized this obstacle and vowed to make advertising in Holiday a tangible opportunity for all.
So, what is Matthew offering?
Holiday with Matthew Mead is offering a very special advertorial section just for hand-made artists and Etsy shop owners.
This feature section will advertise products primarily using business cards (think the business card section in the early issues of VICTORIA magazine). A business logo, tagline and online shop address will be listed in each ad.
As an added bonus, all advertisers will be put into a lottery and ten advertisers will be drawn to have one of their products photographed and featured. From those ten advertisers, one artisan will be selected for a full-page photo opening for this special section.
These ads are open on a first come, first serve basis and these 45 early-bird slots will be sold for $300 each.
So, please hurry and secure your ad. Your ad will be beautifully presented and will be part of one of the most anticipated holiday magazines of the season!

I'm so glad you are doing this for us Etsy merchants - thank you - and fantastic idea - can't wait to see who wins!!
ReplyDeleteI cannot wait to read about NieNie and her beautiful family. She and her husband are such inspirations. When I think I am having a bad day, I just think of them.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea for us ETSY shop owners and artisans. I would love to have my name added in for the drawing. My etsy shop is viewable from my blog.
Have a happy spring day!

Hi what a great opportunity! Does it apply to the U.K.? I have an ETSY shop but live in England.
ReplyDeleteSuch a wonderful idea...I remember those calling card pages in the older Victoria magazines. I can't wait to get my hands on a copy of your upcoming publication...it will be amazing.
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Love Etsy, love NieNie...look forward to both :)
ReplyDeleteSomething to think about! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteChristmas in June with Nie Nie - we're envious Matthew! We have to wait until Holiday comes out to enjoy it. Will you promise to post a few teaser photos?
ReplyDeleteI think this is an amazing idea. I look forward to the featuring of Nie since she is loved by soooo many of us!
ReplyDeleteFantastic!
ReplyDeleteLove NieNie. Love your idea. Love all your stuff
ReplyDeleteI am visiting for the first time (from NieNie's) and one thing really jumped out at me: I love that you put advertising price right up front. In all the time I've blogged I've wondered 'how much do ads on websites COST'? No clue. And it always seems awkward to inquire without even knowing a ballpark number. So, thank you for that!
ReplyDeleteshe is special---i'm glad her traditions will be featured.

I will miss the first issue for an ad, but hoping that you'll have this feature in each issue.
ReplyDeleteI am looking forward to seeing your feature on NieNie and her family.
Can't wait for this feature. And, I'm so excited that you are including Etsy merchants in your advertising section!! Go Handmade!
