Here's What a Few of our Advertisers are Saying About Advertising in The Northwest Connection…
Your column stirred a lot of emotions…we've had many readers visit us. To date we've sold out the "Happier Days" print and have reordered twice in our Troutdale location. Combined with Elsie Beiler's, donations we've raised nearly $400 for the Amish School Fund. Thank you, Jay and Carol, Amish Workbench Furniture Co. Troutdale, OR
"Our customers continually ask…"when is the next issue of The Northwest Connection coming out. We get more response out of this paper than any other advertising we are involved with." Dave Adams, owner. Rainbow West, Gresham, OR.
It is rare to work with someone with such enthusiasm for what they do! JoLinn truly loves her work and it shows in The Northwest Connection. I have worked with her and advertised in the paper and am thrilled with both experiences.
Sandra Jordan, Owner, Inga Pachukes Gift, Decor & Gallery, Sandy, OR
Thank you for the article you published for our small town of Wamic in the Local News section of the September issue of The Northwest Connection, entitled, "Barlow Trail Rendezvous Days." As a result, we had the biggest turnout that our small town has ever seen. Thanks again. Lois Nelson, Wamic, OR
"I get customers all the time who mention seeing my ad in the Northwest Connection. I think the color sets it apart and really makes it pop. I hear comments often about the stories they've read in the paper as well." Donna Erwin, Owner, Columbia River Gallery, Troutdale, OR
"I have used The Northwest Connection since it's inception and found that this medium of promotion has proven effective. I plan to continue advertising with them." Leonard Conkling, Conkling Photography. Portland, Or.
"Several of my best customers originally came to Blue Moon Rising because they saw my ad in the Northwest Connection. Based on that response, I would have to say that some of my best advertising dollars are spent on that ad, in that paper." Donni Endicott, Blue Moon Rising, Troutdale, OR
I really enjoy working with JoLinn and the NW Connection. It gives my business a local presence and my customers enjoy reading the monthly articles. JoLinn provides excellent customer service and is very professional. Thanks for continuing to provide our community with local news. Lynne Page, Financial Advisor, Edward Jones, Fairview, OR 97024
