Florida paper to print chamber content

The Daytona Beach News-Journal in Florida will publish content from the local chamber of commerce, according to a story on the paper’s website.

The story states, “The joint effort was announced in September by Chamber chairman Garry Lubi and Daytona Beach News-Journal publisher Ron Wallace.

“‘The Voice’ will be available as a four-page pullout section and the Chamber will provide all editorial content, including business-related articles, a calendar of events, member profiles, lists of new and renewing members and photographs from recent events. Advertising will be handled by News-Journal account executives.

“‘We see this partnership as a tremendous opportunity in which two of the most dedicated business advocates in Flagler County work hand-in-hand to help improve the quality of life for all, through support of economic development, education improvements and job creation and by sharing the many great stories that result from these important efforts,’ Wallace said in a news release announcing the partnership.

“Lubi said the partnership will complement the organization’s efforts to increase awareness of the Chamber and its programs.”
