Distribution

At Impact & Influence Magazine, we’ve reimagined the traditional magazine model—offering broader reach, longer shelf life, and unmatched value for our advertisers.

We’re proud to announce a powerful co-sponsorship with the Better Business Bureau of Sacramento, creating a dynamic partnership that elevates the voice of small businesses across Northern California. Our offices are located inside the BBB Building in Sacramento, where we work side-by-side with the BBB team to better serve the entrepreneurial community. Through this collaboration, Impact & Influence Magazine is now available in digital format to all 5,300+ Northern California BBB Accredited Businesses, officially becoming the trusted entrepreneurial publication of the region.

Unlike standard publications, each issue of Impact & Influence Magazine carries an official ISBN, classifying it as a book rather than a periodical. This unique designation grants us top-shelf placement in bookstores around the world—including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books-a-Million, ThriftBooks, and Waterstones—and makes our publication available through public and academic libraries nationwide.

Thanks to our distribution partnership with Amazon, every issue remains in print indefinitely. While traditional magazines disappear after a single run, our issues are available for purchase years after release—offering advertisers long-term visibility and recurring exposure. In addition, each issue is free to read on Kindle, available to stream on Audible, and now featured on Magzter, the world’s largest magazine distributor, alongside legacy brands like Forbes, GQ, and Harvard Business Review.

We also offer a growing subscription service, delivering each issue directly to homes and offices. This direct-to-reader model strengthens engagement and ensures your brand message reaches a highly motivated and loyal audience month after month.

Locally, we produce a targeted print run every month, placing copies in high-traffic areasacross the Sacramento region and beyond. Whether it's car dealerships, medical offices, salons, or service centers, each copy reaches dozens of readers—often generating a 25:1 or even 50:1 reader-to-copy ratio, compared to the standard 1:1 found on newsstands.

We also time our distribution with seasonal and lifestyle events to further maximize exposure. For example, our August Monterey Car Week issue receives strategic placement at premium events throughout Monterey, while our September 2025 issue, featuring the Rolex Big Boat Series, will be distributed throughout San Francisco during the regatta.

Our physical product stands apart. Rather than relying on traditional magazine printers, we work with a professional book printer—producing perfect-bound, high-quality editionsthat are more durable and visually refined than typical stapled publications. This also allows us to cut production costs and pass those savings on to our advertisers, especially the small businesses we’re proud to support.

With a multi-platform approach that spans print, digital, audio, subscription, event-based, and bookstore distribution, Impact & Influence Magazine ensures your brand is seen, heard, and remembered. Backed by a premier partnership with the BBB, available at Barnes & Noble, and built on a foundation of community, quality, and innovation, Impact & Influence Magazine is Northern California’s most trusted entrepreneurial publication—and Sacramento’s definitive magazine for business, success, and luxury living.
