Don't
just take our word for it when we say that Living Out East magazine
is the best thing to hit the area since I-75. Here are some opinions
from readers and advertisers.
***
Living Out East continues to demonstrate its leadership role in community building in so many ways. With the “complimentary” ads that you periodically grant to local non-profits – you are connecting your readers with institutions that are the under-pinning of our region.
The recent ad you ran for the Pines of Sarasota – will hopefully assist them in their challenge of improving their campus – so needed at a place where the care for elders who have outlived their financial resources is beyond compare.
Thank you for all you are doing.
-Debra M. Jacobs,
President and CEO,

The medical information
is always timely, very relevent and is written in a consumer friendly
fashion. I especially like the interviews that you do with members
of the medical
community. Also, I want you to know how many referrals I have received
since I began to write my column.
Thank you for a first-rate publication and thank you for caring.
--Beatty Cohan, MSW, Sarasota Psychotherapist

What a great surprise! During our regular monthly meeting, the staff and I thumb through 'Living Out East Magazine' together to look at the various upcoming networking opportunities.
One of the staff members yelled out, 'There we are everyone! Look we made the issue.' Sure enough we saw our #1 banner hanging proudly in our window! We gave a great big cheer!
I want to thank you for that moment. Bringing many different personalities together in a small setting can be difficult. I am truly blessed with an amazing staff both in talent and true compassion.
You have helped raise their self-esteem both professionally and personally- Thank You!
- -Gina Morgando, Owner, Che Bella Aveda Salon

I just wanted to write a note to thank you for the wonderful surprise we had when reading this month’s issue of Living Out East. We can’t thank you enough for your warm welcome and enthusiastic, complimentary review of the Polo Grill and Bar. We are so lucky to be out here at such a fabulous new place with such a fun and supportive community – I think Tommy and I have hit the jackpot!

I have read your magazine now for some months and noticed recently that you have added Diana Harrington as your Arts and Entertainment columnist. She is very good and my wife and I now look for her column when the magazine arrives.Thank you for putting someone on staff who is so knowledgeable of the art scene.

Thank you so much for featuring the work I do in the Living Out East magazine. There has been such a positive response to that article, the phone continues to ring. People are so happy to know there is someone out there who can offer my services. Neighbors, vendors and people from all walks of life have been calling.
One lady called and said, “What a beautifully written article, I was so happy to discover there was a medium in the area, as I used to go to them all the time in England. I am so grateful to have discovered you in the Living Out East Magazine”. Another lady called and said, “I was praying everyday that I could find someone like you to help me and lo and behold there you were when I opened the magazine”. A young woman who had just lost her fiancée called to say she never looks at magazines and just happened to open Living Out East and there was this incredible article that has given her hope for the healing she so desperately needs.
Your article presented the information in a very comprehensive fashion. It appealed to the public at large and took away the fear and mystery that surrounds this subject while at the same time not alienating anyone with contrary view points. Thank you so much for your fairness, clarity and remarkable writing skills.
