Media Kit 2018

bannerBg

Since 2008, The E List has been the go-to guide for fashion, food, art, and charitable events from New Haven to Stonington. Twice a week, 22,000+ well-heeled, responsive subscribers (and the most coveted demographic*) depend on Erica’s finds. Tuesday’s edition is filled with the latest on where to eat, shop and go. Thursday is devoted to local deals and special events.

With limited advertising space (only 9 ads per newsletter) and many opportunities to reach your customer, we customize placements to maximize any budget. From our Banner Ads and Event Listings to our Sponsored Stories, Deals, and Black Book, the investment you make with the The E List guarantees a greater impact than other media opportunities and at a fraction of the cost of newspaper advertising. In a recent survey of our readers, 80% responded that they discover new businesses through The E List advertising.
