We’re working on New Bern Now’s Quarterly Ledger Magazine (October – December 2015).
Attention all Veterans, please join us and be on the cover of the upcoming Ledger! The photo shoot is scheduled for 11:30am at the Veterans Employment Base Camp and Organic Garden on Friday, September 18th. We hope to see you there!
Please send us information about upcoming events or announcements for your organization, community group, or new business by September 19th so we can include it into the next Edition.
The Ledger is unlike any local magazine as the information is about our community and comes from the people living here.
The Ledger is a mini-version of the website. If you haven’t seen our current edition, it’s in a slick magazine format with cover pages in color. The current July – September edition is available in color, online and hardcopies are distributed throughout the greater New Bern area and Beyond.
Special thanks to everyone who has supported our efforts as the Ledger has grown into a 20 page, full size-magazine.
You can make a difference by becoming a sponsor and helping us cover the cost of printing. This is a great way to reach thousands of people looking for local information. The advertising rates are very affordable and include the online and print versions along with your website or Facebook page being published as a “Must Visit” link on NBN’s homepage. Contact us today as the space is limited – first come, first serve!
We’ve referenced hundreds of local businesses and non-profits for free over the years. Now we are asking for your help. We have a special opportunity for these organizations to set your business or non-profit apart from the rest. For a small fee of $12 per month, we’re offering a hyperlink back to your website (payable every 6 months at $75 or annually for $144).
This is a win-win situation for your organization and New Bern Now! Here’s the benefits you’ll receive for only $12 per month:
– Your business listing in the Ledger will direct online readers to your website.
– For those reading the printed edition, your listing will be highlighted vs. others, therefore, setting you apart from your competitors.
– Your business will also be listed on our Sponsor’s page on NBN’s website.
– When people see NBN’s logo next to your business, they will know that you support a positive brand in our community. Here’s an example:
Our ultimate goal is to generate enough revenue to publish a New Bern magazine that promotes our community without charging expensive advertising fees.
With your support, we hope to be able to print upcoming editions in full color. This can be very expensive, but it’s what our target audience wants. Our audience is comprised of residents and visitors to the Greater New Bern area and beyond who are looking for positive information about our community.
Please let us know if you’re interested in supporting our mission. September 19th is the deadline for the 4th Quarter Edition. Please give us a call with any questions at 252-638-6858.
We look forward to helping spread the word about the latest happenings throughout the greater New Bern area!
