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.”

– Anne Rosso May, Editor-in-Chief, Collector Magazine

10. Limitations on Liability for ACAE Errors, Omissions, or Failure to Publish or Distribute.

Alternatively, ACAE may offer, at its discretion, and Advertiser may opt for a subsequent “make-good’ advertising placement. Notwithstanding the forgoing, for ACAE errors or interruption that do not materially affect the value of the advertisement, ACAE may grant refunds or credits in its discretion. ACAE’s liability to Advertiser is limited in all cases and in the aggregate, to the total amount of Advertiser fees paid within the prior 12-month term; however, no such limitation shall apply to intellectual property infringement claims or ACAE’s willful misconduct or gross negligence. Advertiser retains the right to obtain equitable relief where appropriate.

14. Force Majeure. ACAE will not be in breach of these Terms by reason of any failure in performing in accordance thereto if the failure arises out of causes beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of ACAE. Such causes may include, by way of example only, acts of God or of the public enemy, acts of the government, fires, and floods and other catastrophic events.
15. No Waiver. No provision of this Agreement shall be waived except pursuant to a writing executed by the party against whom the waiver is sought. No waiver will be applicable other than in the specific instance in which it is given. No failure to exercise, partial exercise of, or delay in exercising any right or remedy or failure to require the satisfaction of any condition under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver or estoppel of any right, remedy or condition.
16. Assignment. Advertiser shall not assign this Agreement, in whole or in part (by assigning any right or delegating any duty under this Agreement), voluntarily or involuntarily, by operation of law or merger, or in any other manner, without ACAE’s prior written consent which may be withheld in ACAE’s sole discretion.

Notwithstanding the forgoing, upon written notice to ACAE, Advertiser may assign this Agreement to a successor in interest to all or substantially all of the assets of Advertiser or to an affiliate of Advertiser. ACAE may assign this Agreement, in whole or in part to an affiliated entity or to any party by operation of law or by merger or in connection with the sale of any line of business.

The parties agree that the exclusive forum and venue for any legal action arising out of or related to this Agreement shall be the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota, and the parties submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court. If neither subject matter nor diversity jurisdiction exists in the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota, then the exclusive forum and venue for any such action shall be the courts of the State of Minnesota located in Hennepin County, and the parties submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
20. Disputes or Claims. Any Advertiser dispute or claim arising under these Terms must be submitted in writing to: ACA Enterprises, ACA International Communications Department, 4040 West 70th Street, Edina, Minnesota 55435 or [email protected].
