Nashville Biz Journal unveils redesign

Lori Becker, the editor of the Nashville Business Journal, writes Friday about the redesign of the American City Business Journals paper.

Becker writes, “Business leaders need information fast. They can’t wait until Friday to get the news they need to make decisions. The NBJ fills that need. Our print, online, mobile and social media reports work together to bring you the news — when, where and how you want it.

“The NBJ newsroom is breaking news every day online and through social media, delivered to your inbox with our morning and afternoon digital editions. We then continue the conversation on Friday with our print edition, filled with analysis, top headlines and profiles of the power players leading Nashville’s business community.

“It’s about more than telling your stories. It’s about leading the conversation.

“That daily conversation in our newsroom revolves around one central question: Why does this matter to our readers? If we can’t answer that question, we haven’t done our jobs.”
