The purple page

Publishing the purple page has been my occupation for the last week. The purple page is our monthly newsletter. It has a feature article, vendor reviews and advertisements. It has been very busy, as I had to write the articles and find the right people to the production.

The feature article for February 2010 is about having a one-stop wedding ceremony and reception at home. This could be a residential location that would preferably be offered by a family member, relative or friend. This concept is not yet common in Uganda, but can be very beautiful and cheaper. The newsletter also has six vendor reviews focusing on wedding stationers.

Distributing the copies at key super-markets in Ntinda Kampala, was a success, and I have already had a meeting with a business owner that has been very eye opening.

A link to the newsletter will be placed on the blog in due course.
