“To think creatively, we must be able to look afresh at what we normally take for granted.” – George Kneller

I posted this quote on Thrifty Nickel’s  Facebook page earlier because it really spoke to me. As humans we can’t keep doing things the same old way if we ever want to achieve innovation. Humans and companies need to be constantly evolving in order to keep up with the everyone else. I think Thrifty Nickel has done very well in this regard over the past two years. We’ve rebuilt our website from the ground up to make online ads easier to place than ever! We’ve also grown our Facebook page and have obtained over 6,000 likes since the time I started. Not to mention we may be the only Thrifty Nickel paper in the country with its own dedicated blog! However we’ve only reached these heights thanks to the continued support of all our amazing fans who we really do appreciate!

A great paper simply can’t exist without the help of great sales representatives. The sales team at a Thrifty Nickel works their butts off everyday to make us the best paper we can be. So next time you see or talk to your representative, be sure to thank them for all the amazing work they do. We all work hard because that’s the only way to produce a weekly paper in the Permian Basin for over thirty years now! That’s why people trust Thrifty Nickel with their advertising needs, our paper just works!
