CRAPPIE WORLD MAGAZINE...Lets get it out in the open
First, let me introduce myself, I am BRAD UHL, and I have purchased Crappie World Magazine as of Jan 1, 2012. Some of you have read the current issue, and already knew that, some don't know why they havent seen an issue in over 7 months.
I have received several emails, about anything and everything bashing Crappie World magazine on this website. I wanted to give you all a chance to not only look a gift horse in the mouth, but have a chance to talk to him as well. I'll do you one better, that the last owners didn't do, 918-364-4210 is our office number, and if you want to call on my dime, its 800-554-1999, or direct email to me, [email protected]. Call or email your questions or concerns.
I have been employed by this publishing company for the past 12 years, on and off. I have had several positions here, including customer service manager. Taking that into consideration when I purchased this magazine, I took in everything complaint wise that I had heard over the years and tried to correct that. Mailings of the magazine being one of them. Other issues I am trying to address one at a time, like the print of the font is to small. No more stupid "you won a rod and reel" sweepstakes to be in a drawing. Bringing back the "crappie talk" section, hell, I one upped you, I am putting anglers like yourselves on the COVER!
Not being published in over 7 months, left a lot of subscribers wondering where, and high and dry. I decided to fulfill remaining subscriptions, althought I didn't have too. I worked 18 hour plus days, several weeks in a row, with no salary right now, and I built this magazine from scratch, by myself, to get it out on the newsstand and in the mail to the subscribers. Is it perfect? NOPE. I know more mistakes that you, I promise. BUT! A magazine went out. And it was my first. It was on time. It is on the newsstands, AND mailed to ALL current subscribers. Each one will get better, and adding over 8K new subscribers since JAN just shows some of you have faith. The next issue will be even better. There are several new sections in the magazines, and more are coming. Big changes including an updated website, facebook is open and you can friend Crappie World there, and twitter.
So I read a thread, of Crappie World has a new "GIMMICK" Well let me assure you its not gimmick, and other posters here that have ordered have verified. Yes, I am selling a lifetime subscription for $99, and you can be on the cover, have your crappie story published, receive a very large tackle pack, and other benefits. And you get a lifetime to BASSIN' included. Both magazines for $99. Tru story, search the forum and see.
I am here to publish this magazine, and make it the best ever. I have seen it in its prime, and unlike others, I do not golf and use this magazine to fund my other hobby, I am an angler, just like all of you. Comments and complaints and suggestions are absolutly welcome!
Thank you,
BRAD UHL
