Direct mail service
Through National Ground Water Association's direct mail service, the Ground Water Monitoring & Remediation® and the Water Well Journal® subscription lists are available to direct mail service users.
All or any part of each list may be used. Simply let us know the segment of the market to which you wish your material to be sent. Many of our advertisers have found that direct mail campaigns are the perfect adjunct to their marketing plans. A display advertisement, followed up with a direct mail piece, has proven again and again to be an effective marketing strategy.
Please note: In order to be eligible for this service, you must be a current, contracted advertiser of WWJ or GWMR. Only those firms purchasing the equivalent of six 1/4-page, black-and-white display ads in WWJ, or four 1/3-page black-and-white display ads in GWMR, can utilize the direct mail service.
Pricing is based upon the cost of the list, the services we provide, and the cost of postage. The closer to mail-ready your piece is, the lower our charge.
Advertiser index
An advertiser index and advertiser product directory are provided free of charge to help make your advertisement easy to locate. While every attempt is made to make the index accurate, the publisher assumes no responsibility for omissions or errors. The publisher reserves the right to omit index if space constraints require such action.
Bonus distribution
Issues of Water Well Journal, Ground Water Monitoring & Remediation, and Ground Water® are distributed at national and international conventions, trade shows, and exhibitions. Call for full list.
