Why does Marysville Matters exists?

There aren’t enough timely, local resources for accurate, fact-based local news in Marysville and Union County.

Marysville Matters aspires to change that.

If you get depressed doom-scrolling through the childish behavior on Facebook groups and just want to know what is happening in the City of Marysville, this publication might be for you.

If you want to hear the positive news about our community, along with the important information that adds to our quality of life, this publication may be for you.

If you are busy and don’t have time to dig, I aspire to give you a “radio news” style update that you will find helpful and make you a more informed citizen.

And I’ll give it to you in simple, everyday English and with appropriate context.

If you have a story that you think should be pursued, email me. I’d also appreciate your feedback.

Who is behind Marysville Matters?

As a former broadcast news director and editor, I miss the days of being able to tune into the local news to find out what is happening in town. And I enjoy writing in quick, broadcast style language to help people keep up with the little things and the big things around them.

This Substack is an experiment in the future of local news. I’ll be collecting things about Marysville, Ohio and Union County that I can find online from public sources.

My goal is to let you know what is happening in your community, without an agenda.

No politics.

No snark.

Just objective information about your community.

I’ll leave it to you to form an opinion.

How your business can partner to support this important work

Imagine promoting your business with Marysville Matters.

Don’t worry, we’re not filling the news letter up with a bunch of ads.

I plan to only run one sponsor per day on the newsletter.

What do you get?

Unique exposure to some of Marysville’s most engaged residents and consumers.

For as little as a penny per view, you will be able to reach the community with a customized message featuring your business.

  • Educate.

  • Offer specials or coupons.

  • Show your support for an informed community.

Each day I’ll lead off with your business as the sponsor.

And embedded in the newsletter will be a message from me about your business.

  • You dictate the content.

  • You approve the message.

  • And you’ll have exclusivity that day. I don’t want to clutter the news letter with a bunch of ads. Just one sponsor a day!

For my regular rate, you can sponsor up to 3 days a week for a three month commitment.

And if you want to take over a whole week, I have special rates for that, too, based on availability.

So how about it?

Ready to engage in a unique, modern and digital way to market your business in a growing community.
