Reach the whole trade in one buy
You are not buying banner impressions. You are buying the distribution we already own, and every one of the people in it makes money from a wood product. Sawmills, lumber yards, hardwood suppliers, woodworkers, millwork and cabinet shops, kilns, and slab dealers.
The inventory
Where you can go
Slots on the hub
Each page here carries one reserved sponsor slot. One sponsor per slot, always labelled. No slot auctions, no five banners fighting each other on the same screen.
The email list
One sponsor per send against the owned list. Not a rented audience, not a rented list. People who asked us to email them.
Woodpreneur host reads
Host read spots inside the episode, one sponsor per episode. Hundreds of episodes in the back catalogue keep working after the drop.
Community placements
Sawmills and Millworks at roughly 20,000, Kiln Drying at roughly 30,000, Band Sawmill at roughly 32,000. Placements run inside the groups, never as a drive by post.
The written dispatch
The long form side of the audience, and the readers most likely to be running something at scale.
Directory placements
Category and state level placement in the free directory, where somebody is already searching for a supplier in their area.
How we run it
Three rules
One sponsor per placement
Nobody shares a slot. If you take the newsletter, you are the only one in it that week.
Always labelled
Sponsored is marked as sponsored. This audience can smell a disguised ad from the first line, and they punish it.
Only what fits
We take sponsors this trade actually uses. Blades, kilns, equipment, finance, insurance, software. If it is not for a wood business, it does not run.
Can I advertise to sawmill and woodworking businesses on Acres of Timber?
Yes. Acres of Timber sells sponsor placements across six surfaces: one reserved slot on every page of the hub, an email list of roughly 20,000 subscribers, a Substack of roughly 5,000 subscribers, host read spots on the Woodpreneur Podcast at roughly 5,000 downloads a month, three Facebook communities totalling roughly 82,000 members, and category and state level placement in the SawmillsNearMe directory. Every placement runs one sponsor at a time and is always labelled as sponsored. The audience is people who make and sell wood products, so the sponsors that fit are blades, kilns, mill and shop equipment, finance, insurance, and software. Those figures are distribution channels that Acres of Timber owns, not website traffic, and the hub is new. To start, write to steve@acresoftimber.com and say what you sell.
