Contractors Hot Line, a leading weekly digital publication, has been a trusted source for active buyers and sellers of both new and used equipment, parts and services. Clients benefit from seamlessly integrated advertising options, including digital ads, e-casts, and custom campaigns, embedded within authoritative editorial content effectively engaging an informed audience.

As a Catalyst Communications Network company, Contractors Hot Line is integrated with other Catalyst products and services including over 30 trade publications for the agriculture, construction and industrial sectors.

On April 14, 1966, the first four-page Contractors Hot Line “want-to-buy” newsletter was distributed by an Iowa contractor and his wife to industry professionals searching for an easier way to locate and sell equipment in the Midwest. Since its humble beginnings, the weekly digital magazine has expanded to encompass new and used equipment, parts and attachments, equipment auctions and industry services.

This group also publishes the monthly Parts Connection, a monthly digest sized publication that is highly recognized and utilized by the industry as the directory for buying and selling new, used and refurbished parts for all types of construction equipment.

Attachment Connection is an annual directory dedicated to attachments for construction equipment, providing buyers, sellers, and equipment owners with a base of knowledge on the use of attachments to increase the versatility of their machinery fleets and expand their service offerings.

The Construction Guide Group also publishes the annual Construction Equipment Guide and Crane Guide, which are the authoritative resources for retail and auction prices, serial numbers and specifications from the leading equipment manufacturers.
