The Towne Post Network, Inc. is a community magazine franchise system headquartered in Fishers, Indiana. It began 21 years ago with the launch of the Geist Magazine by founder and CEO Tom Britt. Today, the Towne Post Network includes 19 monthly print publications that are mailed to over 250,000 homes in Indiana and northern Kentucky. New territories are available throughout the Midwest.

All essential services necessary to produce a successful and profitable magazine are centralized and performed by the Towne Post Network. Each franchisee works from home and networks in their community to sell advertising in their respective publication(s). All invoicing, accounts payable, design, editorial oversight, web postings, printing, and distribution are handled by Towne Post Network. It is truly a turn-key franchise with a 21 year track history of profitability. Even during Covid, our magazines were profitable every month!

In recent years, we have expanded to include digital offerings which are referred by franchisees and serviced by an internal marketing agency inside of the Towne Post Network. Franchisees can now offer targeted programmatic campaigns, Google Ad management services, web design and hosting, Local SEO services, and even digital inventory through the TownePost.com website, email newsletters, and online event calendar.

According to our Item 19 in our 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, the average magazine in our network in 2023 netted $125,218 with the average gross revenues of $270,995.
