Thank you to everyone who came out to the Puget Sound Release Party last week. What a great night! Between the perfect weather, great conversations, and an amazing turnout, it really felt like one of our best yet. We counted over 270 attendees just based on the stack of business cards—hopefully, you made some new connections and had the chance to catch up with familiar faces too.

Earlybird Discount Is Live
If you haven’t reserved your ad yet, now’s the time. The Earlybird discount saves you $300, and spots are placed in the guide based on size and reservation date—so the sooner you lock it in, the better your placement. Meghan has already sent agreements to current sponsors, and we’re always open to referrals if you know someone new we should reach out to. No payment or ad copy is needed yet—just the reservation.
