Dear Business Leader,
Now, more than ever, it is important to have a powerful marketing plan and continue growing current business relationships while also expanding new ones. With your help, we want to promote Illinois to those who play an integral role in shaping our industries.
For the past two years, we’ve partnered with Journal Communications, an award-winning custom publisher, to develop a marketing program that uses new media tools to shine a spotlight on what our region has to offer. The centerpiece of this marketing strategy is the Illinois: State of Innovation magazine, a high-quality print publication distributed to talent prospects, site selectors, and key economic development and government partners. The print magazine is accompanied by a companion website and digital version viewable online and on mobile devices. This provides advertisers with year-round exposure on multiple media platforms.
• Magazine: Promote your region’s strengths through the print magazine, which features stunning photography and engaging editorial content.
• Website: Browsers searching our area can find expanded content of the magazine, including
photos and more, on businessclimate.com/illinois-economic-development.
• Digital Magazine: View our magazine online anytime, expanding the target reach for potential
newcomers and businesses.
• Tablet/Mobile: Reach a growing segment of your target audience with content optimized for
Apple and Android devices.
I encourage you to take this opportunity to expand your reach and reinforce your brand to more potential customers through this annual promotional program.
A representative will be in the area for the next few weeks to talk about advertising options in the next
magazine. To request a meeting and learn more about advertising opportunities, please email sales@jnlcom.com or call (800) 333-8842 Ext. 292.
Thank you for your continued support in this joint effort to promote our great state of Illinois.
