Questions

What is GoodTimes?

GoodTimes is the events side of NewsBlend. It lists what's on in a town this week. The same events can go in your newsletter. Town pages live at goodtimes.now.

What if my town has few events?

An issue needs at least two events. If there aren't enough that week, it goes out as your usual news issue instead of a thin one.

Can I still send news?

Yes. Pick News, Every other week, or Both in one. You can change it any week.

Do I have to enter events myself?

No. We read the public calendars for your town. If your business has an event, tell us in your note.
