Steve Schappert, Publisher THE GOOD WORD

A Social Business Enterprise, multimedia platform that includes printed publications, web, social media & video.

We provide inspirational stories about the good things people do to help other people and the planet. THE GOOD WORD features the good, green, cost-effective things people do to make our world a  better place. Poetry, stunning photography and inspirational quotes will give  the piece a unique look and feel. THE GOOD WORD was conceived in Brookfield, CT. Our print publication was born at GreenFest 2012 in Danbury CT with 100,000 copies distributed, making it one of the largest publications in the state on its first day.

We learned alot about distribution, design, logistics and competition in the following months, and spent 8 months developing this site, that now receives about a million hits a day.  Future issues won’t be as time sensitive, offering timeless stories of inspiration in a quarterly print publication.

The new format will reach 500,000 over a 3 month period of circulation. We plan to launch 5 editions in our first year in Connecticut with a total circulation expected to reach 2,500,000.

A strong message of hope and tolerance is promoted in THE GOOD WORD. Copies will be distributed in the news paper, to local business, hospitals, high schools, rehab centers, and  elderly housing complexes.

Who doesn’t love good news? We believe there is enough misery in the world, and our  minds need a breath of fresh air. THE GOOD WORD is here to provide just that. THE GOOD WORD will promote the BIOS Concept, which is the belief that promoting green, healthy, holistic, organic, sustainable, energy-efficient living can make a change in the world that will bond all race, creed, color and religion. Teaching the world to do well by doing good.  Together we can create a better life for all by understanding that we are all connected by mind, body, spirit and earth. In addition to the environmental focus we will provide information on art, literature, music and most of all humor. THE GOOD WORD is here to put a smile back in your day!

The Green Marketing Company is developing THE GOOD WORD as a printed publication that offers local business the ability to target their community and spotlight the good things they have done to become successful.  Spreading THE GOOD WORD lifts spirits, increases your business, and simply makes the world a little more  pleasant.

“We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.” ~ Buddha

  1. Are you really a non profit organization? I checked with the IRS and you are not registered as an non profit organization

    • We operate as a social business enterprise, the guidelines in CT are very new, almost non existent. We have completed the paperwork to create a 501 c3, but I honestly think we are going to pass on that in our first year. Are you familiar with Social Business Enterprises?
