In-house publications

IMAGE asia produces and distributes printed sources of information for visitors to Phuket and surrounding areas.
Our philosophy is to complement the region’s ‘glossy’ magazines by presenting ‘hard’, comprehensive and practical guidance on a single market in an attractive, easy-to-use format.

Over 90 percent of the content of each publication is targeted at a single market. Visitors looking for information on a specific subject find it quickly with IMAGE asia.

Since our first publication appeared on Phuket more than two years ago, this unique approach has been met with an enthusiastic response.

All IMAGE asia publications created by have their own web sites.

The key to IMAGE asia’s success is its distribution network, and its unique approach to distribution. Effective distribution is about more than printing a few thousand copies and ‘dumping’ them in the market. For more information about our distribution system and network, click here

Advertising opportunities are available in both print and web versions of IMAGE asia publications. For more information on advertising rates, click here

Phuket’s premiere guide to dining choices on the island
Published 6 times per year

Introduction
A little more than two years ago, IMAGE asia’s first publication in the series, Where to Eat, was Phuket’s first and only true guide to dining – and quickly became a ‘must’ for visitors. Its unique format allows readers to make an informed choice quickly – and to avoid unwelcome surprises. It is a proven source of restaurant clients, confirmed by our advertisers, many of whom have been with us from the first issue.

Circulation / print run
12,000 copies per month, revised every two months

Specification

Size: 208mm high x 97mm wide (approx)
Cover: 210 gsm. glossy art paper, 8 pages fold-out
Inside pages: 170 pages, 120 gsm. matt art paper,

Readership profile

Where to Eat readers are mainly independent tourists (not ‘packaged’ tours), other visitors (property buyers, business visitors), hotel managers, F & B managers and, to a lesser extent, local residents.
Because we have such a wide selection of establishments featured in Where to Eat, we cover a very broad range of the accommodation market, as well as other types of outlets.

No other publication of its kind can offer exposure in 12,000 copies per month, in 300+ selected outlets, with distribution monitored constantly – for less than 8,000 Baht per full page per month.

Introduction
Exclusive Homes is the first pocket-sized publication aimed exclusively at buyers and long-term renters in the real estate market. It is presented as a directory of detailed, hard information – including a price guide – rather than a clutter of glossy ads. Like Where to Eat, it is based on the principle that potential buyers need practical, concise yet detailed information to propel them to the next step – your sales office.

Readership includes the majority of property developers working on the island, as well as those in related supply/service businesses.

Exclusive Homes is seen in the hands of more potential buyers arriving at property sales offices than any other publication. It is effectively the home-buyers handbook.

Advertising Rates
As with Where to Eat, the advertising itself (the listings) forms most of the content, so we are able to offer excellent value. No other publication can offer exposure in 5,000 copies per month, in 200+ selected outlets, with distribution monitored constantly – for less than 3,000 Baht per full page per month.
