Each year, in the April/May edition of Garage, Shed & Carport Builder magazine, we publish building projects that showcase some of the many possibilities for small, special use, residential structures. Ultimately, our goal is to inspire builder/subscribers and help them better identify and meet market needs. By highlighting not only the potential of these buildings, but also the actual projects being completed, we aim to advance the industry.
As a project participant, you’ll enjoy numerous benefits. If your project is selected for publication, your business will receive free promotion in a national magazine dedicated to garages, sheds, carports and other small, residential, special use structures. Despite being a regional builder, you’ll gain national recognition.
Moreover, you’ll receive a badge that reads “As Seen in Garage, Shed & Carport Builder magazine,” signifying your company’s distinction as one of the few selected for publication. This badge can be used in your marketing materials, on social media, and wherever else you find suitable.
Another powerful benefit is a complimentary pre-written press release announcing your company’s selection and publication from a pool of national submissions. Given the typical cost of professional press release services, this represents significant savings.
Garage, Shed & Carport Builder magazine maintains a prominent position nationally and is the host of the annual Garage, Shed & Carport Builder Show, which brings builders, suppliers, and other industry experts together from all over the country. The next show will be held Jan. 15-16 in Greenville, South Carolina. By presenting your project as a solution to industry challenges, you inspire fellow builders to enhance their performance and drive the industry forward.
To submit a project for the next Garage, Shed & Carport Builder Building Showcase, visit shieldwallmedia.com/garage-shed-carport-builder-magazine-project-submission-form. This digital upload form has been streamlined to make it easier than ever to use. You can also reach the form by scanning the QR code. Simply fill in the required details (company and project specifics, along with a list of components and materials used) and upload clear, high-resolution images. Upon submission, you’ll receive confirmation that your project details have been received. Remember, the more comprehensive your submission, the greater the chance of publication.
If your project is chosen, you will be notified and given the opportunity to review the page (or pages) before publication. Additionally, you’ll receive a high-resolution file of the pages for your marketing efforts, the digital badge, and a pre-written news release to distribute to local news outlets.
