FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: North Carolina’s Most In-Demand Social Media Content Creator, NC Eat & Play Launches Its Own Influence Magazine.
Raleigh, NC – NC Eat & Play, a widely popular social media brand in North Carolina reaching more than 500,000 locals a day, is set to publish a monthly magazine debuting in April 2024. NC Eat & Play Magazine will complement the brand’s beloved social media coverage that followers expect and offer an enhanced focus on family, fun, and food. Every month, readers and followers can expect a closer connection to Megan Nichols, NC Eat & Play’s Founder and Editor-At-Large.
Every day, hundreds of thousands of highly motivated locals and popular consumer brands seek out NC Eat & Play for its information sharing, scrumptious photography, and captivating storytelling – making it one of the most talked-about and fastest-growing “influence media” brands in North Carolina.
Megan shares, “I’m overwhelmed by the tremendous growth of NC Eat & Play. It’s been wonderful to connect with so many newcomers and long-time locals. North Carolina truly has my heart and has provided my family and me with meaningful memories and professional opportunities. I’m so grateful to begin publishing and giving my followers another version of my storytelling filled with local wanderlusting at its best.”
The magazine focuses on Greater Raleigh, but readers will enjoy coverage from other parts of the state that encourage more ways to love North Carolina. 10,000 monthly premium print and perfect bound copies will be available for free at select NC Eat & Play partner locations and at dedicated partners like The Butcher’s Market – which will provide shoppers a complimentary copy that includes a Cover-Turning Recipe from the market every month.
Digital copies are available at a low monthly subscription fee.
Megan adds, “We’re creating something special for NC Eat & Play followers. After years of success in social media, our weekly newsletters, and several sold-out events, we knew it was time to offer a new experience with the brand. My team and I want to create something unique for followers that feels different from other publications. We’re going to have a lot of fun with this!”
NC Eat & Play Magazine will be published by its brand management team at Llama House Partners.
Every issue will be called a carousel book in reference to NC Eat & Play’s history of Instagram success through compelling static visuals. Readers will enjoy seeing photographic carousels comprised of popular archived photos, unseen photos, and sneak previews of upcoming content.
The publisher states, “In a now cluttered social media world where creators go viral for chasing likes and followers with too many reels filled with trending music, captions, and comment hooks, it’s nice to go back to strong visual storytelling again. At NC Eat & Play, we know our followers aren’t here because of algorithm tactics but for pure joy in following Megan’s and her family’s adventures and storytelling.”
NC Eat & Play’s full media kit is available upon request by emailing info@nceatandplay.com.
