People Together

Marple Friends & Neighbors

Our Sponsors Are Known For Bringing People Together. Finding New Sponsors Is An Easy Puzzle For Reader Leaders.

Most of you reading Marple Friends & Neighbors are not aware you’ve actually become Reader Leaders. The first requirement is simply to recognize the names of our advertising Sponsors, and know they make it possible for our free hometown magazine to be mailed monthly to your home, and be available online at www.MarpleMag.com

You’ve become a Reader Leader when you “get it.” Not when you start receiving your hometown magazine in the mail, but only when you’ve realized that you are reading every new issue, just as your friends and neighbors in Marple are also doing, do you get how we are Bringing People Together by our unique brand of social-media-in-print. When business owners “get it,” that’s when they want to join the party as an advertising Sponsor of residents of Marple Township.

Our Bringing People Together, social-media-in-print mission is to deliver the simple reading pleasure that has become the mail highlight of the month for most Marple residents - reading each new issue of Marple Friends & Neighbors, made possible by the financial commitment made by our advertising Sponsors. And when more join the party, we can increase our page count that allows us to publish a greater number of feature articles about our community’s history, its residents and organizations and local events happening in Marple or nearby.

Finding new advertising Sponsors can be an easy puzzle to solve for Reader Leaders when so many local businesses depend on Marple residents for the success of their business. When local business owners understand how Marple homeowners value their hometown magazine, and willingly reward them for being hometown Sponsors, the puzzle is solved.

Thanks to your loyalty, our advertising Sponsors know they are making a good return on their investment in Marple residents by making our hometown magazine possible. Those local businesses depend on us to help grow their business. And we depend on local businesses to help grow our free hometown monthly magazine. It's easy to solve if we look closer into this puzzle to search for new advertising Sponsors to grow our hometown magazine.

See the Word Find Puzzle on page 17. Hidden are the names of 20 Marple businesses you would now. None of them are yet “at the party,” and each would make a great new Sponsor to help our hometown magazine grow still larger in page count so we can continue to increase the number of feature articles in each issue. Read the cryptic “Hints” I’ve provided for the business names hidden in the Word Find Puzzle. See how many Marple area business names you can find in the puzzle, businesses that are not yet advertising Sponsors of our community magazine.

The local business names to look for in the puzzle are not provided because some, which are hidden among the many letters, may jump right out of the puzzle – just like the businesses you do see advertising on our pages are rewarded with your loyalty whenever possible for Bringing People Together as a Sponsor of Marple residents through our hometown magazine.
