Business in Focus is published both as an online magazine and a high quality printed hard copy. By publishing online we are able to extend readership beyond simply a one-month cycle by keeping our articles online and Google indexed for a minimum of two years. We never hide our content behind a subscription paywall, so our clients and readers can easily access and share content, and reach the widest possible audience.

We also work closely with our content partners to create a digital stand-alone document, with a front and back cover, for clients to share or print locally for their own promotion independently from the full edition of the magazine.

With today's audience gravitating more and more towards consuming content online and through mobile and digital devices, our growth strategy and focus of distribution is connected closely to that medium.  What separates us from most of our competitors is that we still believe in providing a quality printed product to ensure a wholistic approach to distribution and subscriptions. We print and distribute a full gloss printed edition every month, and provide a complimentary copy to each of our valued advertisers and feature companies.

Important Collaborations

I Build America

Construction professionals build our nation – literally. I Build America (IBA) works to give these men and women the recognition they deserve. The national movement instills pride in the construction industry, educates the public about value of construction, and recruits the next generation of construction professionals. I Build America is a place to share stories, ideas, and information that value and show pride in construction.

NGen Canada

Next Generation Manufacturing Canada is taking the lead in forging new and creative pathways to long-term success. NGen brings companies together. It links companies, researchers and investors so they can efficiently collaborate to develop new manufacturing technologies, invent or refine production processes, adapt better to demand and market conditions, and create reliable domestic supply chains. We worked closely with this proudly Canadian organization to produce an in-depth article sharing their objectives and principles centered on creating a flourishing advanced manufacturing landscape in Canada.

Specialized Carriers and Rigging Association

With the Specialized Carriers and Rigging Association being one of America’s oldest and venerated trade organizations, we were excited to work with them on this. The SC&RA represents 1,400 members from 46 different nations speaking for the industry on key issues affecting safety, profitability, and efficiency. From small family-owned businesses to large multinationals, SC&RA’s members are active in the specialized transportation sector, crane and rigging operations, manufacturing, industrial maintenance, heavy machinery moving, erecting, and other support industries.

 

Giving Back

Business in Focus is firmly committed to providing complimentary exposure for Associations, Unions, and Conventions in the sectors we represent. We value the thought leadership that comes with the responsibility of running those organizations and want to ensure our magazine is strongly linked to their agenda. 

We also sponsor a number of charity and non-profit organizations by giving them free full page ad placements, appearing alongside our other industry leading clients. It is important that we show the full picture of industries we serve, not just the largest economic presence.

 

Environmental Accountability

Environmental accountability is important to us, as it is for many of the businesses we represent. At Business in Focus we work to minimize our carbon footprint in all areas as we grow. By focusing on subscriber growth digitally, we reduce environmental impact not only by using less paper and ink, but by dramatically reducing the environmental cost of logistics involved in distribution.

We are also committed to a paperless environment and focus on digital platforms to organize and manage our business.  Some of these capabilities include Sharepoint servers for document management, digital signatures for document signing, email contracts, fax to email services, electronic invoices and receipts.

We encourage our content partners to download and distribute their marketing brochures electronically and educate them on how to reach a broad audience leveraging social media, email campaigns, and their own websites or blogs.
