Dear Friends,
I wanted to take an opportunity to blog a little note of appreciation and thanks for your support in this past year of 2007. I also want to wish you a very prosperous and happy new year.
This past year was a very active year for us as we lay the foundation for LocalsGuide both in print and online. With our online community nearing 400 members we are distinguishing our selves as a powerful and viable media source here in the Rouge Valley.
The publication is now printing at 18,000 copies per month and we have reached 28 pages per month….easily.
We have also developed a real following of loyal fans who look forward to receiving our publication in the mail and around town every month. Putting a name and face with many of our regular contributors.. proving the model that there are Celebrities that live around us in our own little community!
Upcoming in 2008 I am going to place my attention on dialing in the day to day aspects of LocalsGuide, while developing and launching a series of website upgrades. My plan is that these upgrades will invite and share the Web2Print model with the community at large.
Here’s to a great new year!
Shields
