3 The Commercial Building Products Audience Commercial Building Products provides comprehensive product and product-application coverage for 45,000 professionals who buy and specify for the $450-billion commercial- and institutional-construction market. Why do we target all three decision makers in the construction process? Because you can t predict who will ultimately decide whether your product is installed in a project. It is universally accepted that the fi nal product determination for a given commercial project can be made by the architect/engineer, contractor, owner, or result from a team decision. The problem, from a manufacturer perspective, is that you don t know when that final determination will be made, or by whom. This is particularly true with renovation projects, an area that is very active these days. By reaching architects/engineers, contractors, and owners, Commercial Building Products gives you the best chance of having your marketing message reach all of the decision makers. Consider the roles played by each decision maker: Architect/engineer: Virtually every new project starts with an architect making the initial suggestion of product specifications and vendors, almost always accompanied by an or equivalent clause. However, the architect may or may not be around when construction, and the real decision making, begins. Commercial Building Products delivers your marketing message to architects, architectural engineers, engineers, consulting engineers, and interior designers. Commercial Building Products reaches 24,000 architecture/specifying firms, among them more than 83% of the American Institute of Architects 200 largest architectural firms, delivering an average of 16 issues to each of those firms. Contractor: This team member is often the critical factor in the decision process. The contractor may: follow the architect s recommendations have a better and/or more available option discover that the specification won t work and initiate a solution collaborate with the architect, owner, or both to determine final specifications. Regardless, the contractor is the linchpin in the process and should always be on your list of people to reach with your marketing message. Commercial Building Products delivers your marketing message to general contractors, design/ build firms, specialty contractors, and construction managers. Commercial Building Products reaches the top contractor firms doing more than $250 million/year, and approximately two thirds of the top design/build firms, delivering multiple issues to each firm. Owner: The owner is often the wild card in the building team. The owner may be intimately involved in deciding what products are used, may rely on his/ her favorite contractor, or may just follow whatever the architect recommends. No matter the situation, the owner pays the bills and, therefore, has the final say as to whether your product gets installed. Your marketing message in Commercial Building Products reaches owners responsible for healthcare facilities, K-12 schools, colleges and universities, corporate offices, retail businesses, military complexes, hospitality businesses, and government facilities. While there is no question that the architect is the starting point for most projects, you can t afford to ignore the contractor and owner because a decision about your product can come at any time from any building-team member. Commercial Building Products provides the vehicle you need to deliver your story to the entire construction team.

8 Why Commercial Building Products Should Be In Your Marketing Plan Product and product-application information for architects, contractors, and owners. We help you reach the construction team. There is no guarantee that the product specified in the original plans is the product that will actually be installed on a building. Products are switched all of the time, for a variety of reasons. While it s important to reach the architect/engineer, the contractor, who has the installation and performance experience, will often be involved in the final decision. Of course, the owner, the person writing the check, always has the final say in what products are installed. To put you in the best position to get your product specified and installed, Commercial Building Products reaches all three members of the project team. We deliver your message to architects/engineers, contractors, and owners who are involved with commercial construction & retrofit. We reach 24,000 architects/engineers in the commercial-construction market. Among these firms are the majority of AIA s top 200 firms. We reach more than 75% of the contractor/design/build firms that do more than $250 million in project work and approximately two-thirds of the top 200 design firms. We have 7,800 contractor subscribers. Our owner coverage is in the growth markets education, healthcare, and hospitality. Our 13,000 owner subscribers also include the offi ce, retail, and government markets. We deliver product information. All three groups want and need product information and that s what Commercial Building Products delivers product features, case histories, and information about the latest products and services.

But we already knew that because we see the inquiry numbers every day. Put your product/service message in Commercial Building Products, the publication that construction professionals count on to learn about the products they need for their current projects.
