A LETTER FROM THECOPUBLISHERS
Dear Reader,
The Beacon has the distinguished honor of reporting on all God is doing across our city. We hope
you enjoy these good news stories — and, if you haven't already discovered it, may one help
point you to connect your passion to purpose. And change more lives.
Many of the nonprofits we've featured in our city report seeing volunteer numbers increase and
new donors joining in to help impact our city! We want to take the opportunity to say “thank you”
to each of you for being bold and stepping out. And, thank you Lord.
A community resource. In addition to our good news stories that touch hearts, we have a
deep desire to act as a resource platform for the Body of Christ in our community. You can currently
find upcoming local Christian events happening around us, watch videos with changed life stories
and gain a perspective about local leaders and how their decisions affect our community.
YOU are the reason we exist. We would be blessed for you to provide us feedback as we continue
to shape this new resource — The Beacon. If you have a few minutes to share your thoughts, we
placed a short survey on our website @ www.sabeacon.com/readersurvey. We value your
opinion and every survey will be read and prayed over.
We also know you are busy, so we would like to thank you for helping us help you. Complete our
easy, 5 minute survey and be entered into a drawing for a $100 Gift Card as our way of saying
thank you. Please complete the survey by September 16, 2019 to be entered into the drawing.
The winner will be notified by September 23. Thank you in advance for sharing your feedback
and opinion with us!
Are you a community-minded business? The Beacon is also helping to build partnerships
between community-minded businesses and nonprofits with our 'cause marketing' strategy.
Research shows the majority of consumers, when choosing between similar products in price,
will select the community-minded business over a competitor. We help you appeal to the hearts
of your future customers with consistent 'cause marketing' that works.
Working on your marketing plans for next year? To gain a real advantage in your competitive
business climate, please consider The Beacon as part of your marketing mix. Win the hearts of
more customers with proven messaging and change even more lives in our community at the
same time. Please email Duke at duke@sabeacon.com to set up your 'cause marketing' discovery
meeting today.
Thank you again for your interest in The Beacon. We hope you will enjoy this issue and will be
prompted to take our easy online survey. Together let's 'Be A Light' in our community!
