The First Home in the Northland Magazine Is Done! We Did It!!!!

It's amazing when you see the fruits of your labor pay off! I was at the press check last night for our launch issue of Home in the Northland and what I saw was incredible. As a northlander myself, I am so proud of this publication. Not only does it represent the beauty and sophistication of my friends and neighbors but it makes a statement to all of Kansas City. We are a warm friendly community with a ton to offer. I hope everyone in the city gets a chance to look our magazine and venture up north. The invitation is always there and we welcome everyone!

With that said, I'd like to give a huge thank you to all of the advertisers who joined our quest to give the northland a beautiful publication. Your confidence in our vision is so appreciated. And, speaking of appreciation, I got the nicest phone call today from Carol Meierotto. I love Carol and I have the utmost respect for her. She has an amazing store and a lot of wonderful people who work for her. She called me just to ask how everything was going and to tell me how happy she is about the redesign of the magazine. Carol is a strong believer in community and knows how much the northland needed a publication like ours. I really appreciated her vote of confidence, it made my day! Thank you Carol!

I am so lucky to have such great accounts like Meierotto's Fine Jewelery. I can honestly say that ALL of my accounts are really wonderful people!!! Over the years of being in the advertising industry I have meet a lot of great people and made a lot of great friends. I am truly blessed.

One quick note as I wrap things up. One of the exciting things we have changed with the new Home in the Northland Magazine is the way we distribute it. We have decided to pick 30 neighborhoods in the northland and door hang the magazine in a bag. This is an exciting change for us and we think this we benefit you the reader. I mean, I love getting free things delivered right to my door, don't you? We will continue to mail a portion of the issues but the bulk will be delivered right to your door for FREE!!!

To make sure you get a copy you can always subscribe for a small fee. Otherwise, all of our advertisers will have copies ready to hand out at there businesses.

The digital version of the magazine is already online so follow this link and check it out! http://www.homeinthenorthland.com/. One big plus about a digital magazine is that if you see an ad that you like and you want to visit that retailer's website all you have to do is click on their ad. If they do have a website you will be linked right to it! That is soooooo COOL!!!

Again, a big thank you to everyone who made this launch issue such a success! I am proud to be a northlander!
