APA SF Member to Members Policies                               

OVERVIEW
 
APA SF m2m emails are a great way to selectively reach a safe, all-APA-SF-Member audience with classifieds, or event announcements. m2ms are generally sent out once a month as a single compilation edition which usually include more than one member's ads or event announcements. The send date for each month varies, as we fit them among other communications. Your message will be included in the next scheduled M2M. 
 
TO BUY PLEASE DO NOT HIT REPLY

If you are interested in any m2m offers, please respond directly to the APA Member listed in the message; we simply cannot forward replies.

HOW TO POST YOUR OWN APA SF m2m MESSAGE
 
m2m is a regional benefit for APA SF members only. If you are an APA SF Leader,  Professional, Associate, or Supporter Member in good standing, you can send out appropriate m2m emails by simply emailing your text only message to us at info@apasf.com.
 
Member Event announcements, Retouchers, and Studio Rental posts can include a banner or graphic; send us a RBG, 150 ppi, 4" wide JPG.
 
We do not send out any attachments but you can include links within your message. We will forward your message right out on the upcoming month; be sure to include in your text a way (email address or phone) for interested people to respond directly to you, because we cannot forward replies.
 
The APA SF m2m Monthly Edition service is reserved for APA SF Members' Photo Equipment for Sale Classifieds, appropriate Member Job Opportunities, Studio Rental Classifieds, or Member Exhibit/Events, and Supporter (crew) Classified (30 words maximum) announcements only.

ONE m2m MESSAGE PER MEMBER PER MONTH (TWO FOR LEADER OR PRO)

Please consolidate all of your current m2m information into one message. To avoid inundating our members with too many lengthy emails, we will only send out one m2m message per month from any APA SF Supporter, or Associate Member -- APA SF Leader and Professional members are entitled to two m2m messages per month.
