Wow, so much progress since the last time I blogged about the GV comeback!Our offices are perfect for us and I love working there every day! We finally have phones and internet, and the temperature is finally close to comfortable in there. And we have a real sign on the door! We still have a ways to go when it comes to furnishings, but we're getting there.
Our test/sample issues for web, iPad, Kindle, and Android tablets have been uploaded to our digital vendor and they are busy getting them optimized.
Most of the stories for the re-inaugural November issue have been assigned. The GV Style photo shoot is complete and the feature will be beautiful!
The special re-introductory offer to advertisers have been sent out and we're already getting a great response!
Our ad agency, RSW Partners, is busy working on our new website at GrandValleyMagazine.com. Had a fabulous meeting with ad agency Cobb & Associates the other day and really looking forward to working with them too!
Am excited about getting the subscriber letters out next... week because we're already getting a lot of calls from past subscribers eager for the comeback.
I am so fortunate to work with such an amazing core team: Editor Margaret Allyson, Art Director Kitty Nicholason, Photo Editor Michelle Ellis, and our support team Style Editor Hope Carlton, and Arts Leadership Team Kay Crane of the Blue Pig Gallery, Sara Alyn Oakley of the Oakley Gallery, Terry Shepherd of the Art Center, and Steve Traudt of Synvis Photography. And of course all the talented freelance writers and photographers who do so much to make GV such a beautiful magazine.
Grand Valley Magazine, celebrating the dynamic life, landscape and people of the greater Grand Valley of Western Colorado. Feels so good to be back...
