We want to keep The Vendor Guide in the hands of decision-makers who have an ongoing need for the products and services featured in our publication.

NOTE: This is a good time to point out that vendor companies who are not current advertisers in The Vendor Guide do not receive our publication. Only Vendor Guide clients are on our mailing list—all others are viable end-users of your products or services.

The Vendor Guide is mailed every sixty days directly to property managers throughout Texas. Each book is ink-jet stamped with a special mark reading: Change Service Requested. This tells the Post Master that should The Vendor Guide be non-deliverable for any reason, we are to be notified so that we may trouble-shoot the problem.

Because our mailing list is one of our most valuable assets, we investigate why The Vendor Guide was not delivered and work to update our records. This process costs our team time and money, but it keeps our mailing list current so we’re not sending the publication where it’s not needed.

The Vendor Guide is true niche advertising. When you invest in advertising in our directory, you’re sending a message to property managers that you know and understand the bid-oriented nature of their business.

While we don’t promise any client one call or one hundred calls, we know that an ad in The Vendor Guide uniquely positions your company in front of an audience that requires your product or service.

If you need exposure to property management, hands-down—The Vendor Guide is the way to accomplish it!

Short answer: Because The Vendor Guide can be everywhere you’re not!

It’s simple math—as much as we’d all love to be omnipresent, there’s no way your representatives can be in thousands of management offices at the same time. But, here’s some great news—The Vendor Guide is everywhere!

With an ad in The Vendor Guide, your business is always there—in the right place and in the hands of people who need your products and services.

There’s simply nothing else like The Vendor Guide!

We’re proud (and humble) to be property management’s longest running, printed vendor directory. When we launched TheVendorGuide.com in 1999, property managers embraced our online quoting service; Bid-Quest.

Our team is comprised of dedicated, caring professionals who work hard to provide a one-of-a-kind source guide specifically geared for vendors to reach property managers. With years of industry experience, our staff works closely together to deliver the best to our clients and the management community.

No, in addition to their printed ad in our bi-monthly publication, Vendor Guide clients are also featured on TheVendorGuide.com as part of their advertising package. Online listings are posted immediately after ad placement is secured so that our clients may begin receiving exposure without waiting for the printed directory to come out.

We’re continually promoting our website through emails and social media channels. One area we focus a great deal of attention on is Bid-Quest, our e-quoting service for property managers.

In addition to selecting specific vendors, these busy professionals can also outline the scope of work and the timeline for the project. Managers appreciate that Bid-Quest allows them to attach photos to their bid requests.

The Vendor Guide team follows up with each Bid-Quest insuring that both our clients and the property manager who requested the quote received the information.

We also use emails and social media to promote:
* Vendors by category
* Seasonal projects
* Relevant industry news
* Trade shows & events
* Our contests
* Special promotions

All of these marketing efforts work together to help keep Vendor Guide clients front and center on a 24/7.

Nope! We’ve got you covered! Our in-house creative team consists of full-time artists and designers. We’ll work closely with you to insure your ad in The Vendor Guide is not only informative but also impactful.

In addition to ad design, our award-winning team can also assist you with captivating full-size trade show displays, logo design, direct mail pieces and much more.

The Vendor Guide is a bi-monthly publication. Here are the issues we print:

January/February
March/April
May/June
July/August
September/October
November/December

We’ve published The Vendor Guide for over thirty years and know that the old saying: “out of sight, out of mind” holds true when it comes to staying relevant. We want our directory to always be in the forefront when managers are searching for a particular product or service. Our clients benefit from this because The Vendor Guide gives them the frequency of a direct mail piece and the value of a response-oriented directory.

Our advertising agreements are one year in duration, which means your ad will appear in six consecutive issues of The Vendor Guide.

Here’s why:

We’ve found that consistency is important when targeting property management decision-makers. These busy professionals need to feel confident that the vendors in our publication will be there when they need them. Think of it like this; a manager may not need your services today, but when they see your ad in The Vendor Guide, they’ll know where to find you when they do. The best strategy is to keep your company where they can always locate you—in The Vendor Guide and on TheVendorGuide.com.

Teamwork!

The majority of our team has worked “on both sides of the fence” —this means in property management and also on the vendor side. This experience gives us valuable insight into the challenges both face.

We know that property managers require multiple bids when sourcing vendors and vendors need to position their businesses where potential customers can find them. The Vendor Guide has bridged this gap since 1984!

In addition, our representatives are well known for their active role in:

* Association committees
* Trade shows
* Onsite marketing to property managers
* Special events
* Contest promotion

We believe that whenever we’re out representing The Vendor Guide, we’re marketing every client in our publication. It’s why we tell our clients: Promoting YOU is what we do!

Sure! We’re happy to let our satisfied clients share their success stories with you. In fact, we run a testimonial letter from a current advertiser in every copy of The Vendor Guide.  In addition, we also feature a “love letter” from a property management professional in every issue.

We understand there are many places to place your advertising dollar. And, while we never promise any advertiser results, we’re happy to have positive testimonials from many clients in The Vendor Guide. We want you to feel confident in your decision to be a part of property management’s most trusted vendor directory where you’ll receive exposure in print and online!
