To Whom it May Concern,

I am writing on behalf of the Northwest Animal Rights Network’s (NARN) Compassionate Consumers Circle of Seattle—C³ Seattle. We are compiling the 5^th edition of “The Compassionate Consumer’s Animal Services Guide,” a free, comprehensive directory of Puget Sound service professionals, businesses, and organizations that are animal friendly and environmentally conscious. The Guide is part of a campaign to promote increased consumer awareness of the compassionate and planet-friendly choices available.

Our last edition of the Animal Services Guide had a print run of 50,000 and was distributed to veterinary offices, grooming clinics, shelters, pet sitters, etc, as well as directly to consumers. The Guide is in very high demand; we get daily calls for additional copies. Our new edition will also have an initial print run of 50,000 and will also be displayed at our website, www.C3Seattle.com, which receives an average of 200 unique visitors every day. As before, the Guide will be distributed free of charge to listed businesses and interested consumers.

The Guide will be useful not only to consumers seeking compassionate alternatives, but also to businesses seeking to attract this growing market. This is an exciting opportunity for your business or organization to stand out in our community as a service or resource provider that cares.

When we printed the last edition, the Northwest Animal Rights Network took on the majority of the cost of the publication ($10,000 in total). Unfortunately, we are unable to do that this year, so for our new edition, we are asking each business to contribute $50.00 for a standard listing (this amounts to a tenth of a cent per Guide produced). If you wish to advertise in the Guide, we offer a choice of three sizes: full page for $500 (7½ inches x 3⅝ inches), half page for $300 (3½ inches x 3⅝ inches), or quarter page for $200 (1¾ inches x 3⅝ inches).

We will also gladly accept additional contributions to offset the cost of printing. For a donation of $250 or more, your business will be listed on our “Sponsors” page.

To order an ad, listing, and/or to make a donation, please complete and return to us the attached form in the enclosed envelope along with your check or money order made payable to “C3Seattle.” The listing form is also available online at our website www.C3Seattle.com.

The deadline for receiving your ad and/or listing is October 31, 2007. You may also pay by PayPal at our secure website, www.c3Seattle.com.

If you would like to learn more about the C³ Seattle campaign or to discuss any aspects of your listing in the directory, please contact us at info@C3Seattle.com. We expect the Guide to be a handy reference for tens of thousands of compassionate consumers in the area. We look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,

C3 Seattle Staff
