It was the little magazine that could. In its six years, In Focus magazine garnered year-by-year increases in ad sales, as word-of-mouth spread of its value. I was at my busiest last year rescheduling advertisers (and booking many new ones) because we gave them the best bang for their buck – a targeted readership, a vibrant publication, an online Ad Index, and a number of great ad spaces (including pages before the Table of Contents, modeled after consumer magazines, which received an equal amount of praise and objections). I’m very proud of In Focus and all that we’ve achieved from the risks we took to become a successful publication in the movie business. People have wondered how only four individuals produce this magazine. It’s our creativity and hard work – together.

And I commend our advertisers (and their agencies and designers) for their trust, loyalty, collaboration and confidence of In Focus magazine – and me. I’m grateful for you responding to my endless phone calls, e-mails, mailers, faxes, promotions and reminders – and for actually buying ad space in this magazine.

Kudos to the wonderful support of NATO, the great editorial work of my colleagues and the professional talents of the production team at The Printing Connection, who have made In Focus a glossy delight to read every time (and saved me a few times!).

Also, many thanks to Cargill Vegetable Oils, The Hollywood Reporter, Lawrence Metal Products, Moving Image Technologies, Nielsen EDI, Paramount Pictures, Sony Pictures Releasing, Techicolor Entertainment Services, Tootsie Roll, Universal Pictures, and Warner Bros. Distribution for supporting our annual Encyclopedia of Exhibition throughout my years at NATO.

It’s been my pleasure.

Mary dela Cruz, Advertising Director and Associate Editor
