"I've worked with Carrie for the past two years and she has made my life easy when it comes to advertising, she is very polite and professional when putting together my monthly ad for N2 Publishing. Being creative is imperitive when you market your business, she has been very helpful in this area. Also, she is very responsive... Carrie, in a nutshell, has been a blessing for Austin Meat Service. Thank you Carrie for what you do."

Owner, Austin Meat Service
"I am so thankful for the sponsors of the Ripon magazine that allows me to get it for free, and it connects me with Ripon and nearby communities.. During this time of COVID it's been especially nice to be able to stay connected with people, by reading their stories and what/how they are dealing with COVID. I always appreciate hearing about businesses in the area as I love to support local shops. The Ripon magazine is also a great resource for newcomers too. Thank you again, for all you do to keep our little town of Ripon connected."

"I just wanted to share that I believe the Discover Ripon magazine has been the one unifying platform every household in Ripon has counted on throughout this tumultuous year. Each month, it's felt like an escape to remember how it used to be, and gives hope for what will be again. I've seen several Facebook posts that express the same sentiment. I'm so grateful for each person who makes it possible for this magazine to go to every mailbox in our town and I make it a point to refer to it whenever I need anything." Stephanie

As the school year begins, we wanted to resurface a previous blog and give props to our teachers, who are diligently and selflessly making things happen! Many of our Area Directors came from a teaching background, and they found flexibility and financial freedom in a second career through local advertising sales and uniting their communities.
