Company Description

With over 37 years experience, VistaMedia has its roots in hospitality publishing having published its first such title in 1985. Our evolution as a media company includes the addition of custom publishing and graphics, lifestyle publishing, web publishing, website design and development, digital target display advertising, SEO and SEM, app development and event management. On the publishing front, we now account for over 29 titles annually in the hospitality, lifestyle and specialized genres. With each publication, quality is the focus. We believe that the quality of the magazine affects the quality and receptiveness of the message. Print creates an emotional connection and builds relationships. A recent Marketing Sherpa study found that of all media, US internet users trust print ads the most. The internet is an integral part of our media platform. Through VistaDigital Agency, we have built a solid team of designers, developers, search engine optimization and marketing specialists, online content managers and social media managers. The result allows us to help our clients across the broadest spectrum of digital media. The blend of our marketing expertise and digital skills has made us uniquely qualified to develop Target Display Advertising campaigns for our clients. Often bundled with a print campaign, we have strategically developed hundreds of successful Target Display campaigns that allow our clients to pinpoint their target audience with a mobile-friendly digital message. Our Lifestyle publishing, which began in 2000, quickly led us to numerous events that were associated with our publications. Today, we manage and promote dozens of events each year. Through sponsorships, these events now provide an additional platform for our clients to grow and extend their brand. We have developed a team that excels at managing and promoting events and allowed us to extend event management services to other entities looking to create and execute their own event. At about 50 strong, our staff of professionals is the best at what they do. We have evolved to meet the changing demands of marketers with a broad platform of solution-based media. Our goal with all clients is to understand the expectations and then work to exceed them.
