The People Behind ACA International

A Snapshot of the ACA Audience

ACA International’s membership represents top companies from every sector of the ARM industry. Because many ​member companies have more than one business line, percentages may exceed 100%.

While membership in ACA holds significant advantages, many of ACA’s media, education and event opportunities are also open to non-members, meaning that you’ll get unique access to the business community at large.

Collector magazine is dedicated to chronicling the current landscape—and exciting future—of the ARM industry.

Collector magazine is a digital-first magazine. New issues are released digitally on a bimonthly basis, and we also print one special edition a year: the July/August issue, which contains popular features such as our president’s profile and the annual vendor Buyer’s Guide. The July/August issue is available both digitally and in print.

One printed copy of Collector magazine is mailed to 1,500 ACA International members as part of their membership dues (the July/August issue).

The newest issues of Collector are advertised in ACA’s website, in the ACA Daily e-newsletter, in monthly member benefits emails, on ACA’s social media channels (X (formerly Twitter), Facebook, and LinkedIn) and in a variety of other events and methods.

Collector magazine can help advertisers reach a large community of executives and decision makers in a variety of market niches within the ARM industry. Collector magazine articles are regularly promoted in ACA Daily and across our social media channels, drawing in readers from a variety of sources.

“Collector magazine is the only industry publication that connects owners, CEOs, managers, attorneys, trainers and more to help them grow their business.”

Retargeting Campaign

Retargeting is a type of digital advertising that enables marketers to create highly targeted ad campaigns that reach their desired audience across the internet. By utilizing retargeting technology on association websites, marketers capture a prequalified audience to turn association members and supporters into customers of their own. 

Provide your campaign budget and your ads will run until contracted impressions are met on ACA International’s website. Submitting all materials as recommended will provide the highest placement rate and allow the system to best optimize your ad campaign for performance. Keep the message simple and the text as large and easy-to-read as possible.

Collectors are the core of your organization and their ability to do their job can make or break the success of your organization. On top of that, they are the brand of your organization, the client, and the industry. This is a lot of pressure!

  • Motivating the consumer to pay
  • How to create win/win solutions

  • Recruitment: Hiring and onboarding to build agility
