Be a part of our team...
We would be honored to have you join our team and become a more integral part of the Smith Lake community by advertising in our magazine and through our extensive social media and other digital avenues.  We want to be a part of your supportive marketing plan. ​
We are here to serve our community.  We seek to place participating local businesses in front of the lake community.  We don't stop at a printed AD, we continue to advertise businesses by utilizing our reach on several social media platforms and other digital methods.  And, we're always open to ideas to fit your plan.

Website:  thelakesidelife.com
Facebook:  @thelakesidelife and the "Smith Lake Community" Group
Instagram: @thelakesidelife_smithlake or @smithlakebiz
...and other platforms like Pinterest & soon Houzz .  
 

Why us? Here are a few things...
  • We are locals, a small family living right in the middle of the lake for over 25 years.  Our company is locally family-owned & operated, so a large percent of your AD dollars is not going to pay a franchise headquartered out of state, it all stays here in the community.
  • We are the most affordable advertising option in the area and offering the most high end product and services.
  • ​We are the most comprehensive website for the Lewis Smith Lake Alabama area with over a million of hits annually.  
  • ​We execute complimentary social media pushes for our yearly contract print advertising businesses as part of their yearly committed package, and in order to benefit from this feature, our customers need only TAG us (this means to use the "@" tag) on Facebook or Instagram, or just PM/DM/send us posts that need to be reposted or highlighted.
  • We offer many other print and digital packages outside of our regular Media Kit, and we pride ourselves on working with every budget in any way we can to make sure any business can afford to be a part of our team in some way.  We recommend you at least start with a FREE or affordable linked listing on the website, or an AD on our Facebook group header:  Smith Lake Community, plus more - just ask or fill out the form below.
  • We seek to remain unique in our approach (we are not a cookie cutter franchise operated out of state).  We strive to be enjoyable to our public so your input is valuable and your contribution is desired at all times.
  • We pride ourselves on being very competitive with other advertising avenues in the area.
  • We distribute our coffee-table worthy print magazine not only in the tri-county area around Smith Lake, but also into Alabama areas of Birmingham, Huntsville, and Decatur, as well as Nashville, TN.
  • Our subscription base reaches into over 36 states and growing.  Our digital magazines are enjoyed by readers from all over the world.  
  • We have a wide reach on social media with several active accounts, and a fast growing Facebook group:  Smith Lake Community.​
