Welcome to the Vendor Digest

The Vendor Digest is our weekly email that features promotions, deals, and discounts from AAHOA’s Industry Partners. The email is an opt-in subscription, so you know that the people receiving it want it and are engaged with the content. The email is distributed every Thursday to an average of 4,500+ emails.

Email Us to Get Started

Getting Started

Use the Signup Form to reserve space for the week(s) you'd like to participate in. You can sign up for all allotted entries at once or as needed. Try to sign up early if you know of a promotion you want to include in a particular time frame - especially around convention - there are only 15 entries per issue, and they tend to "sell out" early. Dates can always be adjusted later if needed.

  • Submit your material using our Creative Submission Form at least 72 hours before the planned send date.
  • If for any reason, you have trouble accessing the form, you can email all components to ads@aahoa.com.
  • Here are the Specifications for creative material.
  • Take a look at the Best Practices to help engage members and FAQs that may come in handy, too.

Club Blue Industry Partners

Your strategy is completely up to you. Each Club Blue Industry Partner can utilize The Bulletin once per quarter allowing even more access and exposure to AAHOA Members.
