Why you Should Advertise your Business

Advertising your small business is important for a variety of reasons. First and foremost, it helps to increase brand awareness, which is crucial for attracting new customers.

Another benefit of advertising is that it can help to drive sales and increase revenue. By promoting special offers or discounts, you can entice customers to make a purchase or try out your business. Advertising can also help to reach new audiences and expand your customer base, which can lead to long-term growth and success.

Seeking Justice for Radiance Peoples

Seeking Justice for Radiance Peoples

On Thursday, July 13, 2023, Lee Peoples, husband of Radiance Peoples was interviewed on the Refocused & Informed Radio Talk Show by show hosts Angela K. Chambers and Francetta L. Mays. Lee Peoples wanted to share his concern regarding the suspicious death of his wife, Radiance and plea with everyone to call and remind the Department of Justice (D.O.J.) of her case.

Peoples described the contact that was made with him by law enforcement. He described the information and updates were very vague and missing of pertinent information. Yet, some of the regular tasks and processes, which should have taken longer appeared to have been rushed. Peoples stated that he was contacted to pick up his wife clothes with no positive confirmation of the case status.

Radiance’s body was discovered in July of 2022 in Garfield County in Oklahoma.

Check out the replay on the replay below:

If you have any information regarding the death of Radiance Peoples, you are urged to contact the local authorities or the D.O.J.   A Google search for information resulted in one story was found regarding her death.
