Our established base of readers directly translates to future clients, so you can be sure that every effort you make through us has an impact. A partnership is more than a purchase, it is an investment that promises unwavering growth.

Strong and well-designed partnerships hold power that reaches far beyond financial influence. At Par Excellence, we believe much of luxury living is about who you know, which is why we emphasize quality assessments in each of our partnerships. These assessments ensure that each partner we work with joins the ranks of companies that enhance each other’s reputation and quality. In our magazine you can expect to have your company displayed amongst the same quality partners, just in the form of luxury magazines and media.

Magazines are meant to contain easily digestible content directed to the specific needs of a target audience, which is exactly why Par Excellence holds limited spaces for advertisements by partners. Our partners receive so much visibility because they each receive a designated space to display their services to the fullest. Each form of advertisement our partners engage in is also designed for maximum reader interactions since the magazine issues are intended for 6-month distributions before a new issue is released and many of the media advertisements are available for display on recurring schedules. Other media platforms post stories from paying companies once and then leave that material to be forgotten and unseen. Our repeated posting approach and audience analysis helps you get more views and more interactions consistently.

A Dedicated Process

Par Excellence magazine and media is intended as a source for experiences and activities dedicated to the unique needs of luxury living. Our focus on exclusive opportunities gives wealthy clientele an opportunity to engage with services that they can be confident in, as every partner is assessed for quality before their services are advertised in our media.
