Advertiser Testimonials


I have a great deal of confidence in the effectiveness of advertising with Natural Awakenings. Our company has experienced noticeable results from our print-based ads. We see a significant surge in incoming calls whenever our ads are printed and hands down sale increase significantly. We are WOWED by the results and I think you will be too. I Love Natural Awakenings of Charlotte and Shannon McKenzie.
While it has been suggested that we convert to online advertising approaches like Google, we have found our current method with Natural Awakenings to be so successful that we have no intentions of making any changes. The impact that this advertising structure has had on our business is unquestionable and Shannon is easy to reach and always adding value.
If you have any further question about my experience with Shannon, I would be more than happy to discuss them. I wholeheartedly recommend her and her work.

I have advertised with Natural Awakenings for years and am happy with the results, but particularly pleased when I upgraded to a larger ad as the ROI was fairly immediate. I wished I had done so earlier. Natural Awakenings does a great job of bringing in patients that are a good fit for our practice and I know this because the conversion rate to patients is higher than other forms of advertising.

My ad in Natural Awakenings Charlotte magazine is my number one way of gaining new clients. Google comes in second. Natural Awakenings has been my most effective form of marketing my business in Charlotte and I am so happy with the results.

Dillon Natural Health has been advertising well over 10 years with Natural Awakenings Charlotte and I couldn't be happier with the results. The credibility of the Natural Awakening brand has strengthened our brand and it has allowed us to build a meaningful long-term relationship with our targeted audience. Upon first advertising, I remember wondering if anyone would call. The Publisher at the time assured me to give it time. I'm so glad I did because we have experienced a steady stream of clients as a result of years of advertising. It has been my best ROI.

Okra Charlotte and Gumbo have advertised with Natural Awakenings Charlotte since 2015 and have found it to be our most effective return on investment because we reach the natural health and wellness audience that is interested in our products/services. We haven't been able to replicate the same results through any other advertising avenues - digital or social media.

I am very happy with the results of my ad in Natural Awakenings Charlotte. I went in with the goal of obtaining one job (which would have paid for the ad), but in the end, obtained five - far exceeding my expectations. The clients themselves also impressed me: people who genuinely value and support small businesses.

One of my goals in 2021 is to invest in and build my business. I decided an ad package with Natural Awakenings was an important component in my overall marketing strategy to do so. I am so happy I made this decision as 2 1/2 months later, I have 10 new clients and my 12-month ad package investment is almost completely paid. I did not expect such a quick ROI.

Natural Awakenings has been a blessing for our practice. Without NA, we would not have grown our practice the way we have in the years we have been open. I would say about 1/3 of all of our patients hear about us through our ads in NA, or come from the referrals of those that did. It is a great way to target a specific Audience that is interested in health, wellness, and natural living.
- David, Two Trees Acupuncture

Natural Awakenings has been a great source for us to generate new patients. We are able to utilize features like the calendar and local health briefs which really create great growing opportunities for us. The magazine markets to the type of patients we are searching for.
