We want to hear from you! You, the readers of Columbia Metropolitan
magazine, are the center of our publication. You are the reason that we
do what we do, and we want to know what you think about the content and
look of these pages. Each issue we brainstorm story ideas – some
submitted from our readers, some submitted from our advertisers and
some that we dream up in our own heads. We constantly critique our own
work and try to improve the editorial with every issue because we want
to make sure that our product meets our readers’ high standards. After
all, if you are not enjoying our magazine, then we have no reason to
print it.
Our reader demographics tell us that overall you are a
highly educated, affluent group of people who enjoys live concerts and
theatre, visits museums and enjoys the outdoors. You are involved,
active in your community and experts on the city in which you live, and
we want your opinions.
