Hello

Let’s introduce ourselves; we are Amanda & Michelle and we are a mother/daughter dream team here with a vision and a goal --- to bring the people back to small business and showcase those businesses to our community.

 

Both of us have spent most of our careers working within the business sector, providing training and mentoring to different facets of different industries.

 

Michelle has a passion for small business support, HR topics and reverse marketing.

 

Amanda has a passion for photography, writing and all things creative.

 

Together we want to breathe new life into media.

 

We look forward to meeting each and every one of you.

Our "Why?"

We are so excited to be launching the B&L magazine; we have big plans and big dreams for this magazine and we are looking forward to having you along for the journey.

 

We appreciate you taking a chance on us and we promise to work hard to make this magazine high quality and we will proudly display it anywhere (and everywhere) that we go!

 

This magazine isn’t about us, though; it’s about you. We look forward to finding out more about you!

 

You are the heart of the magazine. We are focusing on you, your business, your story, your journey.

 

In a world where social media dominates and it’s harder than ever to cut through the white noise, not to mention wading around in the AI fodder, small businesses are struggling to be seen.

 

It doesn’t help that the algorithm rewards chaos and shenanigans, or rage baiting.

 

We’re not sure about you, but we won’t be bending our business and personal values to go viral.

Having said that, there must be a way to connect the right people to the right businesses. The uptrend now is that audiences are looking for real, authentic businesses and are going back to wanting to support local.

 

As we now compete in a space with big business and over-commercialisation, with conglomerates able to provide products and services at un-realistic prices for small businesses to compete with, the only way to remind the consumer of the benefits to buy local is for them to be re-acquainted with their locals.

 

You all have an amazing and unique story to tell. Whether you’re a business, a creative or an inspirational person/organisation, we want to put you front and centre in a way that really reaches your local target market.

 

Print media is making a comeback, so let’s put together quality content worthy of it.

 

Let’s chat about getting your story out there!
