New statewide e-newsletter debuts – The North Carolina 100

Featuring 100-word articles on topics of interest to North Carolinians

S&A Communications, a full-service marketing and communications company, has launched The North Carolina 100, a free bimonthly statewide e-newsletter featuring 100-word stories and 100-second videos on intriguing topics such as business, travel, history and the digital age. The North Carolina 100 joins The Atlanta 100 and The Oklahoma 100 as part of the The 100 Companies publishing network.

On April 7, nearly 60,000 business executives and residents across the state received The North Carolina 100’s inaugural issue in their inboxes. In addition to 100-word stories, the premiere issue also includes a 100-second video of North Carolina Chamber President & CEO Lew Ebert reflecting on the state of North Carolina’s business environment. Ebert welcomes The North Carolina 100 as a way to keep residents updated on the state’s progress.

The e-newsletter and accompanying website (www.thenorthcarolina100.com) seeks to provide quick and concise content with no advertisements. Readers will also be introduced to a column titled The NC Guy written by S&A Communications Principal and Owner Chuck Norman, APR.

“North Carolina’s business leaders and decision-makers can now cut through the digital noise and quickly get a glimpse of the businesses, people, places and events that make us all proud to call ourselves North Carolinians,” said Norman. “Our goal is to educate and inspire around business topics of interest while encouraging our readers to explore new cities and towns, and the rich culture and history that have made our state the ninth largest and one of the fastest growing in the country.”
