ABOUT STYLE MANITOBA

Founded in 1996 and owned by LifeStyle West Publishing Inc, Style Manitoba is a Canadian owned and operated magazine with offices located in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Throughout that time, Style Manitoba has steadily evolved into the most widely read and distributed magazines in the province. Each issue consistently represents the lifestyle interests and concerns of businesses and consumers in Manitoba.

Appealing to a wide range of readers province wide, Style Manitoba is an upscale, glossy magazine that features editorial and photographic material reflecting the lifestyle concerns of Manitobans. Drawing from a pool of talented writers and photographers, and utilizing the highest production standards, the magazine is produced and published in Winnipeg, Manitoba. In keeping with the firm’s mandate to achieve a milieu of unprecedented quality, only fine paper and superb colour printing is used for producing Style Manitoba.

Issued four times per annum, Style Manitoba fulfills the function that urban publications should, acting as a magnet for community thought and a showpiece for Manitoba and Western Canada. The publication crosses several markets, penetrating and retaining certain niches better than do other media.

Style Manitoba is an excellent vehicle for showcasing, marketing and advertising upscale products and services for both national and locally based advertisers – the magazine truly represents the lifestyle trends of consumers. Products and services associated with the homebuilding, decorating and design market, Manitoba’s burgeoning cultural scene, the fashion industry, and other lifestyle trends of consumers are integral to the editorial focus of the publication.

Style Manitoba offers advertisers a much longer shelf life than do other publications. Consumers keep past issues as reference material for valuable renovating, relocating, decorating and building ideas, as well as for its pertinent Manitoba lifestyle content. Style Manitoba’s entertainment calendars, restaurant, music and book reviews, recipes, wine and spirits columns, travel coverage, and Fab & Fashion Finds are also valuable source guides for Manitoba consumers.

A controlled circulation magazine, Style Manitoba is demographically skewed in distribution towards mid to upper income households. The magazine’s passalong readership exceeds 360,000 readers per issue. Style Manitoba’s primary target group ranges in age from 25 to 65 years, 45% of whom are male readers and 55% female readers.

To achieve the best consumer household penetration, Style Manitoba utilizes the following distributors for circulation:

  1. The magazine is delivered in Winnipeg direct to consumers’ mailboxes to pre-selected postal tracts in a range of postal codes.
  2. Style Manitoba is also available through paid subscription; all subscribers receive their copies of the magazine via Canada Post.
  3. Style Manitoba is also available for purchase at McNally Robinson Bookstore.
  4. Every issue of Style Manitoba is reproduced in its entirety on the Internet, providing worldwide availability to consumers and added value for advertisers. Each issue is uploaded when the printed copies are distributed and remains active indefinitely. The shelf life of advertisements placed on Style’s website is excellent. Our website is one of the largest in the province, offering Internet browsers excellent access to all editorial content and to Style Manitoba client advertising. Website Address: www.stylemanitoba.com
  5. Content from each issue (including client advertising) is creatively posted on Style Manitoba’s digital media feeds (Instagram & Facebook/META).

TESTIMONIALS

Just thought I’d touch base to say what a lovely home Style Manitoba showed on the last cover. In fact, I read the story inside the magazine mainly because the cover shot drew me in. Huntington Homes should certainly be recognized for their building excellence. And readers should be proud of our local building talent.

James Roth, Winnipeg

The homes and neighbourhoods section in the spring issue of Style Manitoba was a great tool for my husband and I, who visited almost all the homes featured. We are currently looking to relocate in a new community, and the options shown were very helpful. Keep up with the relevant content!

Kaitlin Green, Winnipeg

My fiancé and I are planning a summer wedding, so I was delighted to see the gorgeous bridal hairstyles featured in the Spring 2015 edition of Style Manitoba.

Jillian Alverston, Winnipeg

Great recipes featured in the last issue of Style Manitoba! I tried all of them on my family and they were a huge hit with everyone. I also enjoyed other sections of the magazine – what a beautiful publication! Can’t wait to get the next issue.

Sasha Remington, Winnipeg

I’ve been following Style Manitoba for some time now, and felt compelled to write in and commend your team for presenting such a lovely publication. It’s been one issue after another of classy layouts and great editorials! Thank you for elevating Manitoba to readers lucky enough to get a look at this magazine.

Sheilagh Henry, Winnipeg

Truly beautiful home featured on the cover of Style Manitoba’s fall edition – such a sleek contemporary style in a nicely laid out floor plan. Hats off to Kurt Streu for constructing such a great looking home, and showing just exactly how skilled Manitoba builders really are.

Jordan Wilkes, Winnipeg

Interesting hairstyles and colours in your beauty section last issue. Glad to see Style Manitoba is not afraid to depict looks that aren’t exactly conventional. Would love to see the fashion section grow in coming issues.

Kayla Johnson, Winnipeg

Although I love the home designs and decorating featured in Style Manitoba, my favourite sections of the magazine pertain to recipes, dining out and entertainment. I always try at least one of the restaurants featured in Delectable Dining, and frequently refer to Stepping Out when seeking something new to do around town.

Mena LaFleur, Winnipeg
