Tucson Green Times's innovative distribution and values-based marketing strategy provide advertisers with an aggressive and cost-effective way to reach more 150,000 new customers in Tucson.

Strong Circulation

Strong circulation is vital for the success of your advertising. Our monthly distribution is aggressive and innovative, targeting a higher ratio of Tucson homeowners than most other local editorial-based free publications. We distribute 47,000 copies of our free paper every month at more than 1,200 locations throughout the Tucson Metropolitan Area.

Our Readers

Reader loyalty is a key to creating response for your advertising. Each month, Tucson Green Times successfully targets and reaches 150,000 readers in the Tucson metro area.  Green is hot. And you don't have to have a "green" product or service to advertise with us.  You just need to be serious about reaching the fastest growing segment of the adult population in Tucson

The majority of Americans now are not only interested in green lifestyles, but are becoming more eco-conscious in their daily lives and in their buying decisions. Your advertisement in the Tucson Green Times "speaks" to these readers because you are positioning your business in a publication that has the articles they want to read.

Recent marketing studies of American adults show:

·       87% are concerned with what is happening in global warming (GfK Roper Research)

·       69% used some form of alternative medicine in the last year (Stanford University)

·       61% have visited a natural foods store in the past year (Health-Focus, a research firm in Des Moines, Iowa)

 In Tucson, approximately one-third of the adult population make up our core readers, but over 60% - or, more than half – of the Tucson Metro population – have confirmed interests and spending patterns focused more each day on the topics we cover in our editorial content.

No other Tucson publication is intentionally reaching out and connecting with this large and growing market.

Our Content

Tucson Green Times places a focus on stories about local green lifestyles, homes and gardens, the environment, health, social justice, personal growth, outdoor recreation, and building a stronger community spirit. 

Feature stories, news articles and tips are specifically written to appeal to our readers, who are your customers. We believe in building strong reader loyalty to make this publication a respected information resource, and Tucson Green Times's high retention rate through quality content allows your advertisement to have continued viewing over a longer period of time.

Our Advertisers

The Tucson Green Times cannot exist without the support of our advertisers. We are a locally owned publication solely dependent on advertising revenue for our operating costs.  We have a responsibility to you, and we are looking to the Tucson community of businesses, individuals and organizations for advertising support in order for this publication to promote, enhance and make visible to the Tucson community the multitude of activities, products, services and resources that are available right here in town.
