People You Need to Know Proudly

Announces Staples Sponsorship

ATLANTA, GEORGIA, 18 February 2010 – People You Need to Know (PYNTK), Metro Atlanta’s premier business spotlight publication, is proud to announce Staples, Inc. as its official corporate sponsor.

Staples, Inc. is the world’s largest office products company, serving businesses of all sizes and consumers in 27 countries throughout North and South America, Europe, Asia, and Australia. It has more than 2,000 stores worldwide.

PYNTK’s relationship with Staples is a perfect match because they are both committed to helping businesses grow. Staples is dedicated to contributing to each and every community it serves.  Since 1986, Staples has been making the lives of business people easier when shopping for office supplies.  People You Need to Know has been making it easier for metro Atlantans to find first-class business professionals such as doctors, attorneys, dentists, real estate agents, and more since 1993.

To promote the partnership, PYNTK will banner the official Staples logo on its website, SparkPlugPeople.com.  The front cover of upcoming issues of People You Need to Know will also bear the Staples logo.  Furthermore, expect the Staples logo to be featured prominently at the People You Need to Know tent at business Expos, trade shows, and festivals.  These events are expected to attract more than one million people.

Sharing his thoughts on the partnership, Anthony “Spark Plug” Thomas, publisher of People You Need to Know says, “I appreciate this agreement with Staples. I’m sure it will be a win-win situation for both of our organizations because Staples is about supporting businesses and PYNTK is about promoting businesses.”

People You Need to Know publications are available at Publix, Kroger, Whole Foods, and many other retailers throughout metro Atlanta, as well as an online digital version.
