I called the (516) 829-5883 number late last week and reached the VM. I did not wish to leave a long message, as I assumed you may have just been busy, and I thought this would be the next best method of contact.  I can just call back at a specific time.
  
I'm a journalist with US News and Business Report, and I would like to speak in reference to a positive piece I am writing. 
To be extremely clear, this is not a solicitation of any type. We would never require compensation to be involved with our articles. This is an editorial. (if you are not familiar please feel free to Google ir visit>  www.usnewsandbusinessreport.com)

This is an interesting series of ongoing “stand-alone” pieces that we are writing for local papers and news outlets titled “The Stories of Local Businesses ". 
Basically, we would like to hear about your origin story, experiences, opinions on different aspects of business, things to that effect. Happy to send a detailed overview, or we can just set up a prelim call, as it is a fairly straight forward piece. .  

This is my phone gmail contact, but all of my main contact info is below. The press contact can feel free to call me anytime as well.
