New Orleans, San Diego and San Francisco.
- How
many publications does Weaver produce each year? Approximately 26,

- What
is an official publisher? As the official publisher
for convention and visitors bureaus around the country, Weaver is responsible
for selling advertising, writing copy, designing and printing magazines
that deliver the organizations message to a targeted group. These
groups can include leisure travelers, travel agents, meeting planners
or anyone else interested in visiting a city or region. Weavers
services cost the organization nothing; however, in exchange for producing
the publication, Weaver retains all advertising revenue generated.
- Why
do the Weaver offices in each city have different company names? Our
local offices are each incorporated in the state where they do business,
and have company names that reflect their location: Weaver Las Vegas,
Weaver New Orleans, Weaver Pacific and Weaver North Pacific Publications.
This structure makes Weaver an integral part of the local business community
and a local resource for other members of the travel and tourism industry
in that location. All the companies exist under the umbrella of Weaver
Publications, Inc., which provides for future expansion.
- What
do the local offices do? They serve the markets sales needs
while all management and creative services are provided by Weaver Publications
in Denver. Advertisers and our bureau LINKS always have a local presence
and on-site account executives to provide them information and service.
- How
many people work for Weaver? As of September 1, 2000, the home office
staff slightly outnumbers the account executives working in offices
around the nation: 18 people in Denver, 13 in the sales force.
- What
is Weavers management structure? Weaver Publications is a
small family-owned corporation run by a five-member management team.
The team management structure reflects the interdependence of all departments
and the importance of all employees in creating a final product that
meets the needs of not only advertisers and client organizations, but
also the ultimate end-users -- the readers.
