I have advertised with the Walton Sun from day one. My advertising all started with my first business, Collaborations. I have enjoyed and looked over the Sun every Saturday since inception. One can easily tell The Sun is going through some changes. I have also been concerned that the end might be near. Get back to the basics. We all are having to adjust and make changes. Those that are being successful in Real Estate or any business right now are doing just that. The Sun has always made the locals feel like they are a part of the paper. I think your continued success is going to require you to get back to what got you here (SJ, hit the nail on the head here). In a sense the Sun is an important part of our community. We need you here.

I would also like to add as an advertiser with the Sun for almost 12 years solid I have gotten tons of business from my ads. I hear people all the time tell me that their ad did not work. One ad does not work. Heck, many ads may not work. Making your ads work is a long term commitment to advertising. I can not imagine having a local business and not advertising in the Sun. Give it a chance and make a true commitment to your business plan and I promise The Sun will shine for you. I have almost 12 years of ads to prove it.

Please bring back The Sun. The move to 'the wire' was a bad one, imo. That stuff can be read anywhere. I don't need The Sun to tell me about the two headed goat in Iowa. Bring the focus back to local news. Heaven knows there's enough to cover here in Walton and our adjacent counties.

Ditto - there is no need to put national news in, especially from the wire service, because usually I read the exact article days ago. Local news, events, etc. is where it's at!

I love the faces on the front page - helps me put names to familiar faces! :wave:

It is also more than likely the only way to survive. Good luck Walton Sun. :wave:

I imagine a regular perusing of the SoWal.com message boards would give the Sun plenty of local interest news stories. Stuff seems to be posted here before anywhere,a nd I know the Sun (and others) have used it to gather info.
