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 avenues.  We want to be a part of your supportive marketing plan. 

​We are here to serve our community.  It is our job 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 (Website:  thelakesidelife.com  |  Facebook:  @thelakesidelife  | Instagram: @thelakesidelife_smithlake or @smithlakebiz  | and other platforms like Pinterest & soon Houzz ).    We are the most comprehensive website for the Lewis Smith Lake Alabama area.  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 on Facebook or Instagram, or send us posts they wish to highlight.  

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 start with an affordable linked listing on the website, and do more as you need to.  

We seek to remain unique in our approach, enjoyable to our public, and 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 35 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.

NOTE:  Any time that our print AD list is full for a given quarter, we highly recommend that you be placed on our Waiting List for notification of open slots in a subsequent quarter.  The waiting list is on a first-come/first-served basis so that we can meet demand fairly.  Also, those who are on the waiting list are still eligible for other benefits and can participate in other marketing options with us often at a discounted rate while waiting.  Feel free to contact us at any time regarding the waiting list.
