New SNAP Franchise - SNAP Perth

Stratford ON, November 10, 2010 - One of North America’s fastest growing businesses is pleased to announce the latest member to its list of Ontario media franchises, and launch of SNAP Perth on January 1, 2011.

SNAP Perth is an organization that specializes in community. Photographically rich, and free to consumers, SNAP showcases the life, entertainment and overall spirit of each and every community in which we operate. Emphasizing customer service, relationship building, technology, and marketing savvy, SNAP delivers effective marketing across print, web and other visually dynamic media.

SNAP Perth is a family-friendly business that will focus on the positive, good news and special events going on in Perth County each month. The publication will be photographically rich, free to consumers - striving to capture the life, entertainment and overall spirit of the community.

First printing will take place on December 27th, and publisher Chris Parson says they hope to have it on the racks in stores a few days later. “I am so very excited to bring SNAP to my hometown and community. This has been a long time coming for us, and something that was truly missing from Stratford, St. Marys, Listowel, Mitchell, Milverton and the rest of Perth County” says Chris.

Ten thousand copies will be distributed once a month to start, but this number is expected to increase dramatically in the months that follow.

Why is SNAP different? For one, because SNAP goes well beyond the standards of other free publications, by providing an entertainment source that consumers want to review and pass on to their friends. Secondly, because the clients who partner with SNAP are part of a group of quality merchants and professionals who know the value of positive PR and community spirit; and lastly because the community members themselves are the key contributors to the content, giving them a voice and a vehicle to share the various events and activities they partake in each and every month!

SNAP Perth’s new publisher and your community partner Chris Parson has had an impressive 20+ year career in marketing and communications and has been heavily involved as an organizer and volunteer of numerous community events and organizations for the past two decades. He continues to be committed to the community and is excited to be giving back to an area he loves to call home. If that isn’t enough, Chris has the backup and resources of the entire SNAP Newspaper Group team who have launched over 60 publications and were ranked #34 in Profit Magazine’s Hot 50 Companies last year!
