  I receive a Racing Pigeon magazine. A lot of the authors of the articles accept a years subscription for their articles. Then again some don't even ask for anything - they use their article for a sales pitch to sell their pigeons. Some manufacturers might be interested in that.

That is a slippery slope to go down unless it is clearly stated in the article. Nothing can ruin a publications reputation faster than becoming shills for their advertisers. You see that in some gun mags that give glowing reviews to guns advertised in their pages

Not that I think it would be the same here as the market is entirely different and less open to that type of abuse but something to keep in mind

Calendargirl:
It can be a slippery slope.  But Wildcat Hunter has a good point.  We have tried hard to walk a fine balance with that.  But if we have an author that verifies the product that does hold weight.  The important part here is all of us are supporting each other.  We (as a magazine) would love to let our readers know about certain products and businesses out there. Small businesses (which are often the best) don't always have a budget to advertise their products. Our magazine has lots of opportunities / prices for advertising.

There are many forum members that could really increase their business if they would put their name in our magazine.  It's a risk worth taking.
