Our Magazine is about and for Our Community.
When starting EdmondActive Magazine, it was originally meant to be a sports coverage magazine to which business owner’s had no interest in supporting, while at the same time, we had a competitor’s ad sales gal telling business owners our magazine was a health and fitness magazine. I couldn’t figure out why no business owner’s were interested in speaking to me about my publication.
For four months before we printed our first print issue of EdmondActive, I had been publishing Around Edmond, the magazine’s weekly online blog at Edmondactive.com, and at Facebook and Twitter, I had already been discussing with our readers topics of interest. This seemed to indicate local resident’s liked what we were doing, after removing publishing politics, so I persevered in my pursuit of my vision for EdmondActive.
When I was out one day in late 2009, I discovered the same local competitor that had tagged us as a health and fitness magazine had been acquiring advertising under the name of my blog (this lasted only one issue) and it had really upset one particular long time business owner, because she had thought she was advertising with EdmondActive (but she knew me by my blog’s name - Around Edmond).
It was important to this advertiser to support this early adoption of community connection, not just for print ads, but to achieve actual feet in her door and engagement opportunities with local residents. Before leaving the retail sphere, this business advertised with EdmondActive for five years, to which we can’t say how appreciative we are for their support.
