Omaha Testimonials


	"I just wanted to drop you a note and let you know that my advertising in your magazine has helped my business grow in the past year. Your magazine has helped me target a group of customers that are interested in the services I have to offer them. It has been a pleasure working with Roxy Eades on the content and layout of the ad. Roxy has always been cheerful and pleasant to work with. Keep up the good work at Women’s Edition." Jim McGovern, Owner A Cabinet Front and Refacing Co.
	"I have been advertising in Women’s Edition since 1995, and have never been disappointed in its results. This magazine has throughout the years proved to be my best source for new business, connecting with new residents in Omaha as well as staying connected with past and present clients. I have been and continue to be impressed with the varied and large market of people who read Women’s Edition." Edward Eagen Hair Designer
	"As a long time advertiser with Women’s Edition, I want to thank you for your excellent service. Roxy Eades, our monthly contact and friend, has always been accessible, ready with good ad ideas and effective copy. Your magazine is both professional and well written, and we find it to be one of our most valuable forms of advertising. We look forward to our continuing relationship with you." Trish Lonergan, Owner Esther’s Inc.
	"We are in our eighth year of advertising in the Women’s Edition. In the past, we have tried radio, newspaper, ladies & health fairs, even television, but nothing works like Women’s Edition. We especially like the idea of our ad being in most Doctors & Dentist offices and stores around the city. Women’s Edition is now our only way of advertising because IT WORKS!" The HMR Staff at Midlands Medical Center
	"We’ve advertised with Women’s Edition for seven and a half years, ever since we opened our salon. The first two years we did lots of advertising with other companies. We had to reevaluate; we were spending too much money on advertising that people would only be exposed to for one day. We love that Women’s Edition is around for a whole month and the price of advertising is quite reasonable. Plus it’s free to the public - you don’t need a subscription. Clients love it…look forward to it every month to see who they know in it since it’s locally owned! It’s basically our only form of advertising now." Amy Floral Marshall and Amy Barker Owners of Amys’ Salon
	"Congratulations on 16 years in business! In these times that is quite an accomplishment for your small business and for all of our small businesses that have used you as an advertising resource. It has been a wonderful relationship for the past 15 1/2 years for us. I know of many of our loyal customers that first found us through your magazine. As the years have past, these customers’ children may have out-grown our store sizes, but you continually remind these customers that we can help with their gift giving both personally and professionally. Sometimes, you’ve even reminded me what our services are! Roxie has them memorized! I especially appreciate the local interviews about the store and about other stores in Omaha. It has helped me make contacts and expanded the information out there about us. It is just another way that “Women’s Edition has helped stretch our advertising dollar. Again, Congratulations! But also, Thank You for helping me build my business with you. It has been a great business experience, but even better have been friendships I’ve found. Good luck the next 16!!!!!" Glynace Kloock, Owner Lil Prince & Princess
	"As a consecutive advertiser in Women’s Edition since March of 1996, I’d like to take this opportunity to say how pleased we are with the results we have received from being involved with the magazine. I believe Women’s Edition offers a very professional and effective format that allows Oral Maxillofacial & Facial Plastic Surgeons to get the message out to women (even men) regarding all the services we provide. We continue to see consistent potential patients flow to our practice from our marketing in Women’s Edition. In addition, the patients we see are all well educated and quality individuals. The customer service we receive is always warm and friendly. Over the years your staff has been very helpful in taking our rough idea and creating ads that work. I look forward to continuing our visibility in Women’s Edition." Bruce S. Kuhn, M.D., D.D.S. Oral Maxillofacial & Facial Plastic Surgeons
	"It’s been over three years since I started advertising in Women’s Edition—since September 10, 1997. How time flies! I want you to know that I am extremely happy with the results of my ad. As you may remember, in the beginning I was reluctant to put out the money; it has been a good investment! About two-thirds of my advertising budget goes to WE, resulting in about one-third of my students and one-third of my inquiries. Approximately two-thirds of those inquiries resulting from WE become students. They seem to appreciate education a little more than those who get our number from the phone book--at the least they’re willing to pay for help. When people call for information I ask them how they found Reading Plus. Some know it was Women’s Edition; others say they saw it in a magazine or in the paper. Since this is an interview situation, I credit those answers to WE since I don’t advertise anywhere else except the phone book. One grandmother told me she had “cut out your ad and carried in my purse because I knew my grandchild was going to need help.” Another mother said she decided to call because “You looked like such a kind, understanding person” in the picture that accompanied the ad. That’s a credit to the photographer. Anyway, I’m glad we made the connection. Keep up the good work." Marge Shoemaker Reading Plus
	"Just received your 16th Anniversary issue. Couldn’t wait to open it and discover our full-color advertisement in the Joy of Living Section. Not that I was surprised to see it in there, I just love to see the final creation in the magazine. There is nothing like color to truly show off the true beauty of a product. Your graphic designers always do a superb job in creating our ads. This is one of the things that attracted me to your magazine to begin with. It also helps that you appeal to women. I firmly believe women make the majority of the buying decisions when it comes to the home. Your magazine has helped us promote our products for years. I appreciate the quality of your magazine, and yes, I read it from front to back! It has been a pleasure doing business with you and your staff at Women’s Edition. I look forward to many more years of advertising success!" Lisa Lackovic, Marketing Director Watkins Concrete Block Co., Inc.
	"Each month I look forward to another issue of Women’s Edition. It is a valuable source of information to women in Omaha. It is my version of Omaha’s farmer’s Almanac for women today. I know that the ad The Designers puts in each month reaches women and men who care about life and how they live in it. I am proud to contribute to the knowledge sharing that your magazine provides. Congratulations on just being you. And, we thank you for helping us reach an audience of thousands each month." Marilyn S Hansen, FASID President, The Designers
	"A couple of years ago, Roxy Eades walked into my office and convinced us advertising with your magazine would benefit our company. In all honesty, we had never advertised and we had strictly relied on “word-of-mouth.” We were skeptical, but we agreed to give your magazine a try and we’ve been pleased with the results. The professionalism and courtesy of your staff was very impressive. I insisted on doing the artwork for our ads myself. I was green under the collar and knew nothing of the printing business and the parameters I needed to work within. Everyone there was eager to teach me. They took the time and had the patience in showing me the correct format and “tricks-of-the-trade” in ad layouts. Most companies would be more concerning with self-gain and charge their customers for time spent. Your company showed customer loyalty and dedication to customer satisfaction. I have since advertised in a few other local magazines. I did not have the success I have had with Women’s Edition, nor have I had the courteous assistance I had learned to admire. We average a minimum of 6 calls per month from our ad. Customers asking questions and complimenting us on the variety of ads we place with your magazine. Since we design and fabricate custom furniture, our completed projects rotate with each month’s edition to show our clients the versatility of our company. I’ve had clients tell me, they intentionally pick up your magazine monthly, to see what’s new in our ad. I was amazed to learn how many readers actually read the magazine. I was even more amazed by the response we have gotten from your readers. Other local magazines cannot compare to the service your company has provided us. In short, I wanted to thank you. We all work hard everyday without knowing if our efforts are going unnoticed or not. Your efforts are not only noticed, but also highly appreciated. Keep up the good work and please thank Roxy for me." Dan L. Zongker, Vice President Zongkers
	"We were asked to write about why we advertise in Women’s Edition. First of all I would have to say it is the excellent customer service we get from our salesperson, Roxy Eades. She makes it virtually painless to put together an ad. She always reminds us when she needs the next ad with plenty of lead time for us. She even comes to pick them up. She also watches for the best space placement. We are an art gallery and Roxy called us when there was an open space on the “Interiors by Design” Page. The staff are always good about making changes to the ads, and to date, I don’t recall any errors when the ad ran. The magazine is also wonderful about running articles on us and mentioning our upcoming events in the “Publisher’s Notes.” Our clientele enjoy the magazine. They often pick it up while in the gallery. We also like the wide distribution the magazine has. We see it in salons, physicians’ offices, etc." Stephanie Heller Heller Art Images
	"I have had the opportunity and honor to be affiliated with Women’s Edition Magazine and their wonderful staff since 1990. For those who know how our office operates, we do not have Yellow Page ad, Television Ad, Cable Ad or even the ad they drag behind an airplane in the sky!! Although we have given some (minor) consideration to renting a blimp to fly above Omaha for our Chiropractic clinic. We are a solely referral based practice!! But due to the positive response that we have received Women’s Edition we continue to maintain an association with them. They are above and beyond courteous and receptive to all of our ideas for ads (some a bit unique) and offer great input so they can be understood by the public. Our rep goes WAY beyond the call of duty to make our job easy. We thank Women’s Edition and look forward to another 100 years of affiliation with them!! Anyway, that’s my plan to practice Chiropractic for another 100 years!!" Lyle E. Koca, D.C. Koca Chiropractic
	"My personal experience with Women’s Edition as a consumer (reading every issue from cover to cover), naturally led me to advertising in this great magazine when I became a business owner. Even though we are a relatively new advertiser, we already know this is a tremendous venue for our product as evidenced by the gratifying response of the Women’s Edition readers." Jo Beck, BSN, RN, Owner Seattle Sutton’s Healthy Eating of Omaha

	"I just wanted to take a moment to tell you how much I have enjoyed working with Women’s Edition. Thanks to the response from my advertisements with Women’s Edition, my company has grown to a point where I have considered hiring additional staff. Everyone at Women’s Edition is very friendly, and your graphic artists have been great at creating effective ads for me. " Beth Hurd, Owner Beth's Body Shop
	"I wanted to write to thank you and the staff of Women’s Edition for supporting my efforts as a small business owner to increase brand awareness and to grow my client base. After several months of running my franchise’s corporate advertising campaign, you and Janet recognized that my business could be more effectively presented to the local market by means of a more targeted ad. This change required a leap of faith, but it was a leap worth taking. Response to the ad you created has been very positive and the prospect calls keep rolling in! I truly appreciate the proactive approach you take to serving my advertising needs. You are a pleasure to work with, and I look forward to working with you in the future." Amy Boesen, Owner/Operator Decor & You
	"I just wanted to pass along how excited we are with the TREMENDOUS response we received from you publication. We placed a one page ad (b/w) in Women’s Edition and received 47 RSVPs to attend our facial cosmetic surgery seminar in January. This is a greater response than the small campaigns that we have run in the OWH Living section (we typically run about 2 weeks) and at about 1/4 the cost. So, thank you very, very much. Your publication is highly effective at helping us target our demographic – Women age 35 and up with discretionary income. We really appreciate the relationship we have with Women’s Edition and look forward to working with you for many years to come." Amanda Visty, Director of Marketing Oral & Facial Plastic Surgery / Dr. Bruce Kuhn
	"I would like to thank you and all the Women’s Edition staff for the wonderful job you do with your magazine. It’s always a popular item in my reception room. I have been very pleased with the way you handle business from our initial appointment, to the monthly contacts about my ad and the wonderful article about my clinic. I received many compliments about the article and how accurately it presented me and my clinic. Traci Osuna was very kind and caring during our interview. She asked the kind of questions needed to gain information about myself and what my clinic is all about, and she did a accurate job explaining my service. The month the article came out about my clinic, I received four times as many calls as I usually do. The article resulted in very appropriate contacts and clients who were pleased to know my service was available in Omaha. The monthly ads are perfect for reaching the type of clients I am looking for. Each month brings the amount of business I would like to see from my advertising dollars. I believe the money I am investing in advertising with you has been very well spent. I could not be happier with the outcome. Setting up the ad and article was very easy with your trained and helpful staff. We are lucky to have such a wonderful publication in Omaha." Teresa D. Miller PT BodyWise Therapy
