Spotlight on Business - Pleasure Island Summer Guide

The Pleasure Island Summer Guide, brought to you by our friends at Snow's Cut Media, is the ultimate summer fun guide for visitors and locals alike. It will be available for free all over Pleasure Island, including Carolina Beach, Kure Beach, and Fort Fisher, in early May.

This 48-page, glossy magazine will be packed with interesting articles, maps, useful information, activity ideas, entertainment options, a dining guide, and more.

As in previous years, you'll find the Pleasure Island Summer Guide in every local hotel, motel, property management office, grocery store and visitor center. It will also be in local Scotchman stores, the Southport ferry terminal, the visitor's bureau in downtown Wilmington, and select locations in Monkey Junction.

If you have a seasonal business, this is the perfect advertising venue for you. 100% of the Pleasure Island Summer Guides will be distributed to your potential customers and it has a long shelf life. This time next year, you'll still be able to find the 2009 Summer Guide in condos and hotel rooms all over the Pleasure Island beach towns. If you missed out for this year, you'll definitely want to add it to your marketing budget for next year!

To view the online version, visit Pleasure Island Vacation Guide.

For more information, call Mike Hoffer at 612-1909 or send an email to mike@snowscut.com.
