Louisiana paper remakes Sunday biz section

Brian Tolley, the executive editor of the Lafayette Daily Advertiser in Louisiana, writes about the paper’s changes to its Sunday business section.

Tolley writes, “We’ve given our old Growth & Business section a facelift. Each Sunday, this section will now be called Jobs & Money, with a primary focus on career news.

“Best of all, the cover will be all local, every week.

“You’ll now find the People in Business feature, one of our most popular offerings, front and center on the cover now, highlighting local business people and their promotions, career changes, awards and other announcements.

“You’ll find a new Sunday Buzz column by Jeff Moore with quick snapshot looks at some of our core economic drivers. This week Jeff talks with IberiaBank’s new Lafayette market president, takes you inside EatLafayette and updates you on construction at Westwood Shopping Center and Lady of Lourdes Regional Medical Center.

“We’ll also bring you a somewhat offbeat look inside someone’s job. This week, it’s Mike Johnson, the head custodian at Carencro High School.”
