PUBLISHER’S LETTER
T
hank you to all the local businesses and readers for participating in this year’s Readers’ Choice Awards! The annual Readers’ Choice Awards serves as a showcase for local businesses. Though awards are given to the top nominees in each category, every local business is a winner. Some are family-owned, some are partnerships, franchises or even regionally corporate-owned, but one thing is for certain, each is competing harder than ever against non-local businesses. Large “category killer” stores and internet-based retailers like Amazon are taking larger chunks of sales out of our local market. Your support of local businesses is what makes our communities thrive. It’s not just about supporting that local business, it’s about
what they contribute as well to our local communities. The trickle down a ect is enormous—sales taxes that support our public entities, a business’ support of a local kid’s sports team or charity. Most importantly, local businesses hire and employ our neighbors, friends and relatives creating a strong and vibrant community. The reader participation this year was again outstanding—about 70,000 votes cast! That’s a powerful statement in support of local 40,000 businesses! It is also a big statement about the audience of The Southern. Many of the businesses that are new to advertising with us have had a tremendous increase in sales, thanks to you, our readers. Local businesses advertising with The Southern allow us to continue our mission of being an advocate for positive change in our communities through our local journalism. So, let’s celebrate these local businesses and continue together to make Southern Illinois a great place to live!
