About Reno Tahoe Tonight
"Because the purpose of business is to create a customer, the business enterprise has two--and only two--basic functions: marketing and innovation. Marketing and innovation produce results; all the rest are costs. Marketing is the distinguishing, unique function of the business." – Peter Drucker
Reno Tahoe Tonight is Northern Nevada’s fastest growing independent monthly magazine. With a pickup rate of 96%, a growing readership of 8,000 Northern Nevadans and Northern California residents, the publication is the titan of the zine category. Reno Tahoe Tonight has been featured on KTVN Channel 2 News, KRNV News 4, Kolo 8, Channel 16's The Pulse and the popular The Reno Style show on Charter Television. With 96 pages of local color and coverage, no other publication keeps readers in better touch with their peers, their interests and their lifestyles.
In "Northern Nevada's biggest popularity contest," Reno Tahoe Tonight was voted 2nd Best Local Magazine, behind the Reno News & Review, in RN&R's 2009 Biggest Little Best of Northern Nevada Reader's Poll--after just its 9th month in existence! Additionally, Editor-Publisher Oliver X was honored in a host of other categories (http://www.newsreview.com/reno/content?oid=1300855). People are responding strongly to Reno Tahoe Tonight because it has moxie, is physically gorgeous to look at and celebrates the people, places, hidden treasures and small businesses that make this region one of the most beautiful and creative places in the country. Our features and photo journals, shot by award-winning photographers and an industry veteran from British Vogue, Marie Claire, and other top international publications, reflect the essence of the creative resurgence happening in the Truckee Meadows.

The Joy of Sales
Reno Tahoe Tonight Magazine, Northern Nevada's fastest growing independent monthly is looking for high energy display ad sales professionals seeking high commission returns. Serious inquiries please. Must know the following regions: Lake Tahoe, Truckee, Sparks, Reno, Carson City and Spanish Springs.
Background
Reno Tahoe Tonight is a regional alt culture magazine on par with national monthlies like Juxtapoz, Vice, High Times, and Paper. Our content is inspired by indie artists Chor Boogie, Franz Szony, Matthew Goodsell, Candace Nicol, and Chris Umana. Our philosophy is influenced by Peter Drucker, cosmologist Ervin Laszlo, the research of UNR's Dean Radin, halfpasthuman.com, and the writing of Jean Toomer, Kurt Vonnegut, Tom Robbins and Hunter S. Thompson.
Real Community
Some of the newest and most important community publications in Washoe County have chosen to print out of state or even in China--at significant savings. Reno Tahoe Tonight is printed locally in downtown Reno by the Addy Award-winning 8-person printing company Registered Ink. Every dollar spent locally goes around the community 9 times! This keeps people employed who live here. We think that's really important.
Sales Philosophy
Our sales mission is to celebrate the new entrepreneurs, artists, non-profit and small business visionaries that make the Truckee Meadows creative communities so special. These are the innovators and businesses that need a boost from local print exposure and a great price point in this economy. We're here to help them share their stories.
Our community needs information to make important decisions about their consumer and marketing dollars. Selling is the sharing of the energy of hope and enthusiasm about opportunity, to facilitate a solution. A sales candidate's sole intention will be to sell Reno Tahoe Tonight as a bridge to help our business families reach their customers and artists to reach their audiences.
