Di Member Registered: 11/15/05 Posts: 2798 Loc: NM, transplant from NJ	We made New Mexico Magazine this month! However, here's the story why we are both glad and a tad bit frustrated... Back in January they asked us for pics/info etc for their June issue's Unique Boutique section. We sent them LOTS of pics. About three months later, the said they ran out of room and we would not be in. I thanked them and said we understood. NOW, we get several orders in one day (yes, happy 'bout that!) but we were very unprepared! Customers say "Oh, we read about you in the June issue, blah, blah, blah) Yes, I wrote and thanked them, yet mentioned our unpreparedness. I would LOVE to have been ready. But oh well..them's the breaks I guess! _________________________ Southwest Body Gear here ~ NEWLY updated website with many new products!

Dancing Dolphin Member Registered: 03/06/06 Posts: 2529 Loc: Southern California	Congrats!! Yes, the media is unpredictable and you never believe it until you see it with your own eyes. When I had my sleepwear biz (sold it in March), Oprah actually taped a live segment on sleep issues that included our sleepwear. It was set to run last June so we stocked up on inventory. Then the show ran too long, and guess what got cut? We were also supposed to be in Health Magazine in March of this year for our Cleavage Coolers; sent them samples and pics. Then, they emailed and said it won't be until August now. Like I said, believe it when you see it in print. That is so cool that you made it in. Are they an online magazine, and if so, can you post the link to your article? Kathy

Di Member Registered: 11/15/05 Posts: 2798 Loc: NM, transplant from NJ	There is a link to www.nmmagazine.com but you cannot access the Unique Boutique page. Only some pages are readable! I picked up a copy today and it looks FABULOUS! They used our pics and did a wonderful job.
