The One is going strong!

Rest assured, The One is stronger than ever and is growing. The staff at McLeod Creative spent a great deal of time getting our systems and processes streamlined and working like a well-oiled machine. With increasing costs of operations for the parent company, McLeod Creative, we decided to restructure the business, reduce our full-time staff and go back to basics now that those systems are set up. Monica Sawyer is still full-time, dividing her time between the home office and the downtown office. Monica will be handling all advertising. Sara Martisek and Bettie Billings are freelancing, helping with wedding fairs, deliveries and such (stop by our booth at The Engagement Party at the Ortiz Center this weekend to see Sara and Bettie). And Ashley Rippke is still designing the magazine. Dan Gaines found a new home at Texas A&M Kingsville. They are lucky to have him and we’ll miss him!

Please excuse our dust as we make this transition. Reducing costs for us will not affect the quality of the magazine or our future. In fact, we are still working on expanding. These changes mean our prices will not go up as our costs have inevitably gone up – good news for our loyal advertisers!!

We’d love to hear from you! If you have questions, please don’t hesitate to call me at 361-887-5054 or email me at [email protected]. Thanks for your support!
