RE: RESTAURANT MAGAZINE # 3 RESTAURANTS OF THE PINELLAS GULF COAST

On September 1st we will release our third issue of the new magazine “RESTAURANTS of the PINELLAS GULF COAST”

In the beginning I had 4 goals. They are within the first year:
Have 100 Advertisers
Have 100 Pages
Circulate 100,000 copies over a 3 month term.
Make a profit.
I am happy to report that after 3 issues...I have reached ONE of those goals ...and it is not the last one.

The next issue is different in many ways.

- I have added 16 new pages of restaurants and information.

- I have printed 20,000 more copies.

- I have included new maps and information on restaurants from MADEIRA BEACH to TIERRA VERDE...aka “South Beaches”.

- I have added information on how to order seafood; the differences in the different types of seafood and fish.

- I have added a fourth page of money saving coupons...now 4 pages full.

- There is ‘original art work’ and background of a local famous restaurant operator (by Dan Smith, local artist). Every issue will feature a new addition to this collection.

- Information and trivia about LOGGERHEAD TURTLES and our beaches.

These magazines are FREE and will be available at most beach area motels, near the bech restaurants, 7-Eleven Stores, Albertsons Grocery and Eckerd Drug stores.

By the end of the year I hope to have completed my design and expansion to fully represent the beaches from Clearwater Beach to Tierra Verde.
