“
The articles written about our family business in the pages of Forest & Bluff have been well researched and the photography also captured the beauty of Tangley Oaks, our headquarters in Lake Bluff. Forest & Bluff also makes a lasting impression—we still receive positive comments about the Terlato Wines article that was published in the Fall 2004 issue.”

The colorful pictures printed on high-quality glossy paper make it ideal to showcase their properties in a venue that goes to every home and business in Lake Forest and Lake Bluff, and even hangs around that very home sometimes for weeks on end! We have been using this vehicle happily since it first came to life!”

“Everywhere I go people comment on the profile article that was written about me. Advertising in Forest & Bluff and Sheridan Road as helped me to connect to the people who had no idea as to who I was -- it brought me to life in their eyes! The advertising that I do is definitely noticed heavily within the community. There is no better place than Forest & Bluff and Sheridan Road magazines to keep your face continually in front of the local public!”

“Every single person in Lake Forest reads Forest & Bluff magazine. Most people who come into my store are already knowledgeable about it – it has helped us really get our name out there. We consistently put an ad in every month. That way the constant message of our store and its services is programmed into the public’s heads.”
Jordan Aron, Imperial Motors,
Lake Bluff and Wilmette
“We have been consistent advertisers for approximately two years. We continually receive feedback that our ads are seen in your publications. To me this means people are reading your magazines, seeing our ads and remembering that they saw them: that is a tough thing to do in an age when people are bombarded with ad messages all day long.”
Mary Ann Hart Beardman, Bailey & Hart
“When I opened Bailey & Hart it was right around the same time John started Forest & Bluff. It was very serendipitous. The timing could not have been better. My business was promoted in such a professional way and our ad in John's magazine really helped create an awareness of my new business. Everyone at Forest & Bluff is a pleasure to work with. I have been advertising for 7 1/2 years with John and I will continue to do so.”
