Active Media Publishing was founded in 2000 by Matthew Nelson with a clear mission: to help local businesses connect meaningfully with their communities. Over the past 25 years, we have grown to produce more than 60 publications across eight unique brands, including Community Advantage Magazines, MOM Magazine, Lifestyle Magazines, Women in Business Magazine, The Clipper Times, The Mountain Times, Postcard Masters, and Community Coloring. Today, our content reaches over 600,000 readers throughout the Portland Metro area and Southern Washington, delivering trusted, high-quality publications to households in towns such as Canby, Tigard, Lake Oswego, and Oregon City.

Our journey has been defined by innovation and adaptability. While our beautifully designed direct mail magazines remain a cornerstone of our offerings, we have embraced the digital evolution, helping businesses expand their presence online through social media campaigns and targeted digital advertising. By combining traditional and modern marketing solutions, Active Media Publishing delivers a comprehensive approach that connects businesses with their audiences across every platform.
