Portland Picks is Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice. If we can’t say anything nice, we don’t say it at all.
Portland Picks is a free, subscription-driven weekly publication, sent out every Friday via email and then updated on our online homepage. It’s a fun and sassy format for “City Secrets,” delivered in a timely and unique manner to a highly targeted market. Portland Picks reaches mostly women who are busy and well-educated “influencers” that want to know about businesses, products and services that enhance their lives.
Portland Picks’ founder, Kathi O’Neil, started her career in Manhattan with Hearst Magazines and The Hearst Corporation. A native Oregonian, O’Neil and her husband returned to Portland in the early 90s. There O’Neil started Westover Media, a full-service marketing firm whose partial list of clients includes: Elle, In Style, Lucky, Tom’s of Maine, Oprah, Gourmet, The New Yorker, Town and Country, Vogue, Vanity Fair, Conde Nast Traveler, W and Health, to name a few.
