Today marks the two year milestone for Bucking Stock Talk Magazine. Back in 2017, as I published the first articles, I could only imagine how big a response I would get. Or how far the outreach would go as a publication marketed on word-of-mouth and search engine promotion only.
I am happy and proud to say that the response has been nothing short of great with readership growing by the day. The Bucking Stock Talk Group has numbers heading towards three thousand members from all over the world and the requests to join are coming in at a steady rate.
As an online publication, part of BST’s success lies in the easy access of articles, both past and present, from anywhere at any time. And the use of shares on Facebook allows people to share their favorite articles with whomever they choose. It’s a win-win situation.
Thanks to everyone who has helped to make BST such a success. I look forward to year three with much anticipation and enthusiasm. Great new articles are in the works with a list of topics I can’t wait to develop. This is a magazine for the bucking stock industry and ideas and comments are always welcomed and encouraged.
One of the additions in this third year will be advertising space. Information to come!
Here’s to Year Three!
