don’t think I’m going out on a limb when I say print is here to stay. I’ll admit that I may be a little biased because I am fortunate to work for the best B2B print publication in Alaska. Some of you may be reading this in our exceptional digital edition (digital.akbizmag.com), but many of you are holding our physical, print magazine in your hands to browse this issue.
Combining print magazine advertising with digital options is powerful, and research shows it. Alaska Business continues to evolve, offering creative ways for clients to target their message through a combination of print advertising, responsive digital ads, Spotlight Digital Profiles (akbizmag.com/spotlights/), the weekly Monitor, (digital.akbizmag.com/media-kit-2024/#newsletters) and Industry (akbizmag.com/industry/) banner ads on our website.

Tonya Powers, Director of Marketing Production at Print Solutions, writes in Adweek that “print can play a strong role in any multichannel campaign. And in many cases, it can outperform digital channels because, as recent research indicates, the human brain does a lot better with information that’s presented in a physical format.”
Ask your Alaska Business account manager to show you how to get your brand in front of our audience with our print and digital options. It’s all in your hands.
