We've been advertising with Read This Magazine for several months now, and it's already brought us genuine new customers. One story really stands out. A customer from Banbury visited us after seeing our advert in Read This Magazine. This was a 35 mile journey, 70 miles in total.. Because he'd previously been caught out by an online blinds cleaning company that wanted payment upfront, he actually drove to our premises in Kenilworth to make sure we were a genuine local business. I explained that a service we provide is to attend the premises, take down the blinds, clean them at our facility, then return and rehang them, or we will clean certain blinds on the customers site, and only once the customer is completely happy do they pay. He was delighted with the concept and with the service that we provided and even recommended us to someone else afterwards. In today's world, where so many people worry about online scams, advertising in a trusted local magazine gives customers the confidence to choose local businesses. Read This Magazine has been a great investment for us, and I'd happily recommend Neil and the team to any business looking to reach genuine local customers. Carl, Revitalise Blind Cleaning Ltd

I would 100% recommend Read this as a small business owner. From start to finish Neil and Andy made the process easy and stress-free and gave brilliant advice. I highly recommend using this publication if you are looking to advertise.

Ever since becoming a house owner I find this magazine helpful for finding good tradespeople. Also like seeing the different local community groups. It can be so hard to find things online in all the noise but this brings it all straight to my door.
