redrock publishing company

BOULDER, Colo. – December 7, 2005 – Redrock Publishing Company, DBA Campus Publishers, a national publishing company located in Boulder, Colorado, is pleased to announce the acquisition of two new contracts, the launch of a new web site, and the addition of a new Director of Sales.

New University Contracts

Campus Publishers recently signed two new publishing contracts, with Texas Tech University and Emory University — our first private university. Visitors Guide magazines for these schools will be published late this summer.

New Web Site

Campus Publishers recently launched two new web sites: a public site at www.campuspublishers.com, and a private site for advertisers.

“Our websites were created by Potent Communications, a local graphic design firm,” said John Brice, the company's president and chief operating officer. “These sites have become an important part of our marketing communications and advertising sales. Advertisers can gather and explore our university markets and advertising opportunities for all of our publications. They can even purchase advertising on-line.” A third website, oriented toward universities, is in development, Brice said.

Questions about the new sites can be directed to Potent Communications at 303-359-0090 or Campus Publishers at 303-544-1198.

New Director of Sales

Campus Publishers recently appointed Michael M. Bookmyer as its new Director of Sales. “With the growth that we have experienced over the past few years, and that which we expect in the future, we needed a veteran advertising executive like Mike to join our fast-pace company. His responsibility will be to manage and develop our national sales organization and attract national advertising to this very popular university market nich.”

With more than 25 years of advertising sales, marketing, and publishing experience, Mike brings a wealth of valuable publishing knowledge to the Campus Publishing team. Mike’s background includes 10 years with Time magazine in Detroit and, most recently, Director of Sales for HOUR Custom Publishing, where he directed the sales efforts for a variety of custom published magazines. Additional experience includes a background in integrated marketing, event marketing, and direct-mail programs. Mike understands the selling and publishing process and is very creative in his approach.
