Changes coming to Columbus business section

Elizabeth Connor, who became the business editor at the Columbus Ledger-Enquirer in October, writes Monday about some changes coming to the section.

Connor wrote, “One of my goals as business editor is to have more local stories in the section. We will be making a few other changes to the business section — in addition to the weekly profiles — to help accomplish that goal.

“Our Small Business Challenge feature will run on the first and third Tuesdays of every month. Susan Miller’s column will accompany the main story on those weeks. When there is not a Small Business Challenge story, Miller will write a column on different business concepts. She will also take your questions for an occasional Inbox column.

“The Businesses on the Move feature will continue but move to the Friday section. This weekly feature is a wrap-up of news from businesses in the area.

“These changes will mean more local news in the business section on a weekly basis while we continue to break news and cover growth and changing business trends in the Chattahoochee Valley.”
