Own a Business? Support Our Street-Level Journalism By Joining Our Biz Membership Program

How do we fund our independently owned community journalism?

This is a question that we ask ourselves every morning. Our loyal members have kept us alive for the last two years. Their monthly payments are the reason you are reading this story right now. You all have backed us up in the best of times, and also in the worst of times. In an effort to keep our daily original news and food features covering all communities of Los Angeles going, we are introducing our brand new Business Membership program. This initiative is aimed at business owners who love our journalism and want to continue making Los Angeles a better place while also expanding their audience.

There are three different levels to join for all business sizes.

We estimate that you will get five times the value of what you pay in the form of impressions, custom articles, social media posts, and more that reach directly to our deep readership in all corners of Los Angeles county.
