I am looking for the top 20 best selling (widest distribution)
magazines that specialize in home decor or ladies general interest.
Along with each magazine, I want the email address and mailing address
of the department that would be in charge of resources, craft
projects, or styling. I have a product line I would like to market to
magazines to use/show in the crafting sections and overal
photospreads.

Request for Question Clarification by rainbow-ga on 04 Jun 2004 05:00 PDT

Hi mommia,

I have compiled the list of the leading women's magazines. Going
through the list, I have noted that there is no specific contact
information available for the crafts or styling departments.

Would the general contact information or the advertising contact
information interest you?

Regards,
Rainbow

I would like to have at least the name of the department i.e. Resource
Director, etc. I would certainly at least like the addresses if any
thing.

Hi mommia,
The available contact information is most commonly the editor's or
advertising department's. This includes the main mailing address.
Oftentimes there is only an online form for general comments or
requests.
There is no specific contact information for the various departments.
Please let me know how you would like to proceed.
