Natural Awakenings Publishing Corporation’s 2008 Annual Conference in Naples, Florida last month was packed with presentations and workshops enabling publishers to continue to raise the bar of quality in the largest network of community natural healthy living magazines in the nation. U.S. readership now tops two million readers each month. Already 54 magazines strong, the company is on track to grow to 62 magazines by the end of the year. Publishers across the country received a variety of awards for their excellence in publishing local magazines. The Natural Awakenings Atlanta Magazine took home two awards this year; Best Local Editorial shared by Sarah F. Berkowitz, Editor and complemented by Kathy Tarbell’s graphic design. Their second award acknowledged Best Local Circulation shared by Darrell Nobles, Distribution Manager and Yvonne Moore, Distribution Service. The Atlanta magazine currently boasts over 120,000 readers through their over 1,100 distribution sites.
During the conference, publishers also gathered in small forums to share how they can best serve their communities with innovative approaches and activities, including establishing green business directories and sponsoring natural health expos. “We’re all working together to move this country to lifestyles of greater health and sustainability,” says CEO Sharon Bruckman. “It’s all about living in ways that are kind to our bodies and good for Planet Earth.”
