WHEN HE IS NOT TRAVELING ON THE road for business, Edwin V. Avent can be found at his home in Hanover spending time with his wife and two sons. Since his purchase of Heart & Soul magazine in 2004, the 45-year-old has found ways to increase readership of the second-largest African-American women's magazine in the country, through a Web site, conferences, and product branding.

Avent recently launched a brand of products called the "Heart & Soul Healthy Weight Plan," and is working on creating a television show.
