Sandra
and Don feel that their business is a success. According to
Sandra, "I think that we're doing something with the
newspaper that is important to the community. We keep track
of events and we have an amazing file of photographs of the
town's history. We've managed to survive even though it's
hard work. We're also financially able to do things that we
want."

Don
agrees and adds, "We have come a long way with the material
things. We're very proud of our building. Newspaper offices
are usually messy, crowded, disorganized places that are fire
traps. We made our space clean, organized, and friendly, with
a positive character. We're always expanding in different
areas of business that are fun and exciting. We're doing a
good job at it and making money, which is our recipe for success."
