"Kiplinger's Personal Finance" Ad-Sales Partner Is James G. Elliott Co.

We erred in reporting May 14 that KPF president/editor-in-chief (since 1981) Knight Kiplinger had re-partnered with The Magazine Consultancy, which he used for years until 2002, when he brought everything in-house with the hire of publisher Bob Kelly. But Kelly leaving KPF for Entrepreneur East Coast sales vp (complements Kate Rodler on the West Coast) followed Kiplinger's hiring of the Los Angeles-based Elliott Co., which he calls "the largest full-service ad-sales management firm with a true national scope." Elliott staff will do most of the KPF selling, but Kiplinger maintains a "dedicated" publisher with his promotion of New York-based ad director Alex McKenna, who "oversees the new relationship with Elliott."
