For business owners
Your business has a story. We report it properly.
A reported feature with professional photography, published in both English and Traditional Chinese — and read by the Dallas neighborhoods you actually serve.

Ten years in business, and the block still only knows what you sell.
Plainly: this is a paid interview. We do it by newsroom rules — reported on site, professionally photographed, published in both languages, and clearly labeled as sponsored. The business has no editorial control over the final text; we will not write something untrue to close a deal. Not happy? We don't publish it, and you get a full refund.
How it works
- 1
You apply — tell us about your business and pick a plan.
- 2
We talk — a reporter interviews you in person or by video.
- 3
We shoot — a photographer captures your space and your work.
- 4
You review — you see the piece before it runs; we correct facts.
- 5
We publish — your story goes live in both languages, permanently.
Scope and deliverables
What you get — and why there's no price list.
Every business needs a different amount of reporting. Some stories are half an hour at the counter; some are half a day on the floor with a camera. Printing a price here would mean charging you for a size you may not need.
So we agree the scope with you first, then send one written quote that lists exactly what it includes. No package to grow into, no line items that appear later.
What changes with scope
- Reporting time
- 45 min – 4 hrs
- Story length
- 800 – 2,500 words
- Published in
- 1 – 2 languages
- Turnaround

In every interview, whatever the size
- Reported on site
- A reporter comes to your business and spends real time in it — never a questionnaire emailed over for you to fill in.
- Photographed properly
- A photographer shoots your space, your people and the work itself. No stock images, no phone snaps.
- Filmed
- We record the interview on video and cut it for our channel, so the story is something people watch as well as read.
- A permanent page
- Your story keeps its own address on this site — searchable, indexed, and still there years from now. It doesn't scroll away.

Common questions
- Is this an advertisement?
- It's a real reported feature, edited by our newsroom. Because it's a paid partnership, we label it clearly as sponsored content — but you don't control the words, and we correct facts, not opinions.
- Do I get the Chinese version too?
- Feature Story and Cover Story are published in both English and Traditional Chinese. Spotlight Interview runs in English, with a Chinese version available as an add-on. Which one fits is part of the scope conversation.
- How long until it's published?
- Typically two to three weeks from the interview, depending on photography and your review. Rush timing can sometimes be arranged.
- Can I see it before it runs?
- Yes. You review the piece for factual accuracy before it publishes. Editorial voice and framing stay with our newsroom.
- How do I pay?
- For now, by Zelle, Venmo or cash, invoiced after we confirm the scope. Card payments are coming soon.
