For Milton businesses
Reach Milton, the city — not Milton, the algorithm.
The Roundabout is the Milton, GA media company behind the hyper-local civic newsletter, the Milton Homes directory, and the Milton restaurants guide. Sponsorship puts your business in front of an audience that actually lives here — affluent Milton residents, ages 35-55, reading on their phone over morning coffee. Two independent surfaces, one editorial voice, real performance reporting.
Two sponsorship surfaces
Surface A
The newsletter
Tuesday, Thursday, Sunday mornings. One sponsor per issue — no banner stack, no interstitials. Sub-niche exclusivity for founding partners (e.g., one HVAC, one dentist, one residential realtor).
Single issue · monthly · quarterly
Surface B
Milton Homes vertical
One featured-realtor slot across the entire Milton Homes directory + monthly market report. Sole presence on every listing page, every school-zone page, and every neighborhood page. Lead form routes inquiries straight to you.
Annual founding-partner program
Surfaces are sold independently. A realtor on Surface B does not block a realtor on Surface A (different sub-niches), and a newsletter sponsor on Surface A does not occupy any of the directory real estate.
One sponsor per issue.
Never three banners fighting for attention.
Inline, not interstitial.
Tasteful placement that respects the reader.
Real reporting.
Opens, clicks, geo, weekly digest — not a vanity number.

That's it. One block, clearly labeled Sponsor, placed after the lead story. Brand voice matches the issue's tone. Links are tracked so you see real engagement.
Become a founding partner
We work with a small number of Milton businesses — one sponsor per issue, reserved category exclusivity, full creative production included. Only the first five lock in 50% off Year 1 (held twelve months from signing, in exchange for case-study rights as the audience scales). We're selective about fit: this is a trusted morning read, so a placement here reads as a recommendation, not an ad. Tell us about your business and we'll see if it's a match.
