Advertising

We invite you to become a part of the Mississippi Magazine family of advertisers. We publish positive stories reflecting Mississippi’s rich traditions and heritage and focus on the contributions the state and its natives have made to business, sports, the arts and more. As the state’s premiere lifestyle publication, we provide a view of the Magnolia State that showcases the finest Mississippi has to offer.

That includes our advertisers! In fact, a recent reader survey shows that 93 percent of our readers are personally involved with our advertisers, having called about a product, purchased a product, visited a shop or used an ad for ideas. It’s why we call our advertisers “family”— you are as much a part of our reader appeal as articles and photographs.

When you advertise in Mississippi Magazine, you are reaching an upscale, influential, desirable market. The fact that three-quarters of our readers keep their magazines more than 6 months means your ad has a nearly permanent shelf-life.We’re proud of our state and proud of our magazine, and sincerely want you to become a part of the best of Mississippi: Mississippi Magazine!
