Greater Fayetteville Biz Journal editor promoted to associate publisher

Faith Hatton

Faith Hatton, the editor of the Greater Fayetteville Business Journal, has been promoted to associate publisher.

A story on its website states, “With this new role, Hatton will be continuing to work as editor while overseeing continued growth, expanding the Journal’s team in 2025 and developing marketing strategies to help strengthen brand recognition. She will also be working to develop partnerships with existing sponsors of the Journal as well as new relationships  with local businesses and professionals.

“‘I’m very excited to continue my work with the Greater Fayetteville Business Journal in this new role. The Journal serves a very niche purpose to local business owners and I think it’s a very underrated resource for an often underrated community,’ said Hatton. ‘I love my work, and continuing to connect with the local business communities and expand our brand will be top priorities for me in 2025!’

“Working alongside current assistant editor Stephanie Meador, the two have expanded the Journal’s coverage, introducing new genres such as Business Profiles and Business Education, extended outreach to all seven counties under the Journal’s coverage area, grew the Journal’s audience and provided business focused stories and coverage to over 10,000 readers.”
