PUBLISHER'SLETTER
all is here and our annual reader-nominated 10Best Awards are back! I love these awards because they bring massive awareness through- out Connecticut for Holistic Businesses & Practitioners and we receive amazing feedback from the winners and readers. Many business owners in categories like Natural Product Companies, Spas, and Farm-to-Table restaurants said they just discovered the magazine and didn’t realize their customers were avid readers and
F
fans. Because of this we were able to increase our advertiser demographic and distribution and holistic business owners increased their exposure!
This year, our 3rd annual 10BEST awards are happening through September 15th. As a Natural Nutmeg reader, you have the opportunity to nominate your favorite holistic practitioner or business in 20 categories listed on the inside back cover.
Go to
https://tinyurl.com/NN10Best2019 to place your nominations by midnight September 15th!
Please take the time to make these nominations! These awards are a
fantastic way for business owners to increase their market share and expand their business. Most businesses experience 37% more growth after winning a local award. Our Connecticut holistic practitioners are extremely passionate about helping their local communities and they need you to help them bring more awareness to all of the amazing natural and ecofriendly choices we have in this great state. We are proud to be the fi rst reader nominated awards exclusively for the holistic business community in Connecticut.
Winners will be announced in late September via eblasts and social media
– so if you want to be the fi rst to hear, please go to
www.naturalnutmeg.com and sign up for our monthly eblasts and Like us on FB and Instagram. We will be showcasing the 10BEST in each category in a special additional issue released in December 2019. This issue will also include articles, ads, business profi les and a holistic practitioner directory that you can keep and use for all of 2020.
September is Chronic Pain Awareness month. Chronic pain is a serious public health issue that needs to be addressed. This issue has many informative and resourceful articles on managing pain with natural therapies. With the huge opioid epidemic in our country, we hope to bring greater awareness to the fact that there are many healthy, natural alternatives to manage and eliminate pain. Please pass this issue along to anyone you know who is struggling with pain and looking for holistic treatments.
