New Sunday biz section in Rochester

The Rochester Democrat and Chronicle said in Tuesday’s paper that it would introduce a new Sunday business section this weekend.

The brief stated, “Look for BusinessLife, a brand-new business section that debuts in the Democrat and Chronicle on Sunday. You’ll find BusinessLife full of local, useful and relevant news and information that captures a new momentum being felt in the Rochester-area business community. More up-and-coming companies, more entrepreneurs, more business people on the move — the section will be alive with the people, products and ideas that make Rochester a fascinating place to do business.

“We’ve also started a daily local business newsletter that’s available by e-mail. To sign up for the newsletter, visit DemocratandChronicle.com and click on ‘E-Newsletters’ on the left side of the home page.”

In addition, the Appleton Post-Crescent in Wisconsin said it was moving its business section out of the back of the sports section and into the A section during the week. Read about that here.
