Trade Magazines
|
There are dozens of great trade magazines for the decorated apparel industry. In most cases subscriptions to trade magazines are free. The only “catch” is that in order for a trade magazine to call you a “subscriber” you must be in the business. That means you typically need a company name when filling out their forms. Most publications now have online versions. Simply follow the links to their home page and fill out their online subscription forms. If you don’t see your magazine here or if you know of one we should list send email to info@tbiznetwork.com. This list is by no means complete and is being updated very soon. |
