Metro guide sponsorship in Houston, TX
Community Impact publishes annual guides — health, education, home, and more — mailed into the same Houston network of roughly 1.15 million mailboxes and kept by residents for the year. Sponsorship puts your business on or near the cover of a reference people actually hold onto.
Guides have a shelf life no other channel does. A Houston household that keeps the health guide on the refrigerator is seeing the sponsor every week for twelve months.
