| How to submit
press releases for LMT’s… |
 |
- Calendar: include
the date of the event, program title, sponsor(s),
brief description of the program
and speakers, location, applicable continuing
education credits and contact information.
For maximum exposure, Calendar releases
should be submitted at least 12 weeks prior
to your
event. The Calendar is printed in LMT on
a space availability basis; however, the
on-line version is updated as each
issue mails and includes all Calendar information
we
have received to date. E-mail Calendar
submissions to Christine Froias.
- NewsBriefs releases, including
people news, are published on a space availability
basis at LMT's discretion. If applicable
they can be accompanied by a photograph (see
Submitting Photographs below). All
submissions are subject to editing. E-mail
submissions to Kelly Carr.
- Today’s Products. As
a service to manufacturers and suppliers
who make LMT possible
through their advertising support, we publish
product releases in our Today’s
Products section at no charge. In fairness
to our Display and Marketplace
advertisers, we ask
non-advertisers to pay a service fee to
cover the editorial, production,
and reader
response processing costs of their product
listings: $200 with or without a black-and-white
photo or $350 with a color photo.
Product releases should run approximately
75 words
in length and may be accompanied
by a photograph or line drawing (see
Submitting Photographs below). All
releases are subject
to editing for clarity and/or space considerations;
promotional copy will be deleted. E-mail
submissions to Kelly Carr.
- Feature Articles. LMT’s goal in every
article is to educate our readers and
share useful information that can help them
build
their businesses; almost all feature
articles in LMT are staff-written.
- Editorial deadlines. LMT is published 10 times per year: January, February, March, April, May, June/July, August* (our annual Buyer’s Guide issue), September, October and November/December. Press releases are due:
January: 12/6

NewsBriefs and Today’s
Products releases may be accompanied by a black-and-white
photograph (no charge) or a color photograph
for a $150 per-photo fee. Digital images are
preferred, but you may also send 35mm slides
or photographs. If you are providing digital
images, please follows these specifications:
- File type: .tif format is preferred.
- Resolution: Photos
must be at least 266 dpi/ppi; line art should
be 1100dpi. Although we
