PUBLISHER'SLETTER F
all is here and our annual reader-nominated 10Best Awards are back! I love these awards because they bring massive awareness throughout Connecticut for Holistic Businesses & Practitioners and we receive amazing feedback from the winners and readers. Many business owners in categories like Natural Product Com- panies, Spas, and Farm-to-Table restaurants said they just discovered the magazine and didn’t realize their custom-
ers were avid readers and fans. Because of this we were able to increase our advertiser demographic and distribution and holistic business owners increased their exposure!
Our 4th 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://rebrand.ly/NN10BEST2020 to place your nominations by midnight September 15th!
Please take the time to make these nominations! These awards are a fan-
tastic 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 exclu- sively for the holistic business community in Connecticut.
Winners will be announced in late September via eblasts and social
media – if you want to be the fi rst to hear, please go to
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 2020. This issue will also include articles, ads, business profi les and a holistic practitioner directory that you can keep and use for all of 2021.
And welcome to our fi rst annual Healthy Aging Guide! This will be an amazing resource for readers 50+ who truly want to redefi ne what it means to age and also fi nd resources to help elderly parents. Our Healthy Aging Guide contains Connecticut’s vetted resources of practitioners and businesses that provide services to people 50+ and their caregivers. Our mission is always to help people navigate these important choices so they can age gracefully and positively, which is now more important than ever.
