Words of Wisdom from Our Advertising Partners
Sean P. Lackey
My name is Sean Lackey and I’m the owner of Lackey & Company, CPAs, Gandalf’s Pub, and the producer of Flanagan’s Wake, all of which are advertisers in OhioIANews.’ By advertising in the OhioIANews, I have been able to reach a whole segment of the market I was not able to reach. Due to the large circulation and unique presentation, I have been able to get the word out, which has translated into increased business. The staff at the OhioIANews is also very helpful and knowledgeable of the Northeast Ohio market. This has helped me to streamline my ads to make sure I’m sending the most effective message. I will continue to advertise with them and look forward to each and every issue.
