I hope you’re well.We’re looking to close our July/Aug issue soon and I wanted to finally get a hold of you in regards to this request.To reiterate, it’s such an important time of the year for us. To plead my case and to respectfully come back to you once again, we service a very specialized market and our publication fits more into the independent niche category rather than a regional publication. We are so editorially different than the other CA mags and I have always hoped that I would encourage you to see us as a worthy book. Although I have yet to get confirmation from you, I wanted to see if you need additional information. Our readers really read our book. They are extremely affluent, they digest it and it sits with them for a long time.I have a big responsibility to deliver content that is considered to be the highest quality possible and you really are the ultimate candidate for our 10x10 section.Please let me know any feedback on this. I’d be so happy to jump on a quick call and have you answer the questions this way.It shouldn’t take longer than 10 minutes. I’m on standby and will do anytime that works best for you!Looking forward to hearing back soonest and again, thank you so much.All my best,Michelle1. When was the last time you were truly impressed?
