Dear Reader: T

he start of a new year is a time to reflect and appreciate life’s many blessings - good health and the gift of family and friends, including the wonderful relationships and friendships forged over these many years in the business community - local business owners and professionals without whom Community Publications and its titles would cease to be. On behalf of our entire team, a heartfelt thank you for your continued support and participation. In the new year, we have many exciting plans in the works - including expanded distribution to reach an even broader audience and reinstating our ongoing monthly mixers to get everyone together more frequently.

For our readers, we will strive to continue crafting compelling features showcasing local service providers and product offerings, the people in our community making a difference, destination dining, travel, entertainment and more. Our goal is always to provide a content-rich publications each month and I personally welcome any feedback or suggestions at any time on the ways in which we can improve our offering.

Thank you for taking the time to read this issue and here’s to a healthy and prosperous 2023 for all!

Jody Robinson, publisher + editor (714) 469-3495 jody@southcountymag.com

PRINT WORKS! ASK THESE LOCAL BUSINESS OWNERS ...

Diane Silverstein

Absolutely Fabulous • Advertising Partner since 2005

"Local print advertising is an essential part of our marketing strategy. After all these years in business, I have found Jody’s HB Magazine to be the place to call home for our local print advertising. Not only is Jody very accommodating and easy to work with, she really cares about us and has become a part of our business family. Her magazine feels like Huntington Beach: friendly, smart, pro-business and fun. I highly recommend HB Magazine to anyone who is looking to advertise locally."

Micah Meiring

Doheny Bike • Advertising Partner since 2020

We struck gold when we started advertising with Community Publications. We know exactly when the publications arrive in mailboxes because our phones ring off the hook and we are slammed with new business. We are extremely pleased with the response!

Tom And Donna Schuster

South Coast Shutter and Shades • Advertising Partner since 2020

Since starting with South County Magazine in April 2020, we have been incredibly busy keeping up with the resulting calls, scheduled appointments and new clients! I believe being consistent in advertising is key. Thank you Jody for your loyalty and helping our business take off!

Jeff Mccabe

One Way Painting • Advertising Partner since 2011

I really appreciate and value the service provided by Jody and her team at Community Publications. The close attention to detail that has gone into every article Jody has written is outstanding and has helped us get the word out on One Way Painting & California Gun Services. The articles you have written really show you understand what services we provide and what value we offer to our customers. Each time a magazine comes out, the calls increase, and we get to introduce the company to new people. Thank you for making everything so easy.
