Coming Soon – The First
“Made in USA” Magazine!
Get ready for the first-ever magazine that is dedicated
to telling the Buy American story as it relates to American jobs and
manufacturing, outsourcing and offshoring, and just about anything else that
affects the American middle class and the prosperity of this nation.
Julie and Adam Reiser have more than just a great marriage and family. They
have a belief that given a choice, American consumers would rather buy
American-made products to support American jobs instead of those of other
nations. As we all see and hear about fellow Americans losing their jobs,
Made in USA Magazine (www.madeinusamag.com) promises to raise the awareness
of the American consumer, telling the stories, struggles and accomplishments
of large and small domestic manufacturers.
Their belief that Americans prefer to buy American products is right on
target. Several surveys and polls have consistently shown Americans would
rather buy products made in the USA and talk to another American when
connecting to a call center for customer service about those products. Their
patriotic passion for this country begs to ask the question “why should we
use our dollars to build the economies of other nations while our fellow
Americans continue to lose their jobs here at home?”
Made in USA Magazine will debut its first bi-monthly issue in June 2005 with
a distribution of 300,000. To subscribe to the print edition of the magazine
or online edition of the magazine or both, simply visit the website
www.madeinusamag.com to sign up. Their website includes a search engine, an
online catalog for Made in USA products, Made in USA business directory
listings, up-to-the-minute business news and headlines and more. It also
includes a Business Registrar that is offered for free to any company that
manufactures in the U.S. You can subscribe for a full year to both the print
edition and the online edition for $36, or for six months for $18.
The magazine will provide thought-provoking articles and editorials
showcasing American companies and manufacturers and the men and women behind
their compelling stories. As a subscriber myself, I look forward to a
magazine that will concentrate on what many publications have missed in
telling the American story of the issues and problems facing Americans,
their jobs and the economy. There simply is no magazine in print today that
concentrates and focuses on the issues that both directly and indirectly
affect each and every American, their jobs and prosperity.
Julie and Adam Reiser are well-qualified to spearhead this effort. As most
of us know, it is the common American that is oftentimes more qualified to
take the true pulse of the nation’s economy than the schooled economist who
can’t see beyond the idealistic lines of an economic textbook. Adam Reiser
grew up watching his friend’s parents lose their jobs as the local Ford
plant closed its doors during the gas crisis of the 1970s. Julie Reiser grew
up in the Midwest and watched some of her parent’s friends prosper while the
American farmer quietly struggled to stay afloat.
Just as any parent would want their children to grow up to be free,
independent and self-reliant, we risk losing the ability to make those
dreams a reality unless we stop relying on others to supply our nation’s
basic and everyday wants and needs.
I’m happy to be receiving the first issue of Made in USA Magazine as a
subscriber because we not only need to support the American companies and
jobs that make America work, but also those who create the awareness to
steer patriotic consumers to the right products and services.
