New Berkshire business magazine to debut in fall '07
6.13.07
BERKSHIRE LIVING TO PUBLISH QUARTERLY BUSINESS MAGAZINE BEGINNING IN FALL 07
(Pittsfield, Mass., June 13, 2007) – In October 2007, the region will see the introduction of BBQ: Berkshire Business Quarterly, a new, full-color glossy magazine produced by the same team that introduced the award-winning Berkshire Living to the area two-and-a-half years ago.
In an announcement before a breakfast meeting of the Berkshire Chamber of Commerce this morning, publisher Michael Zivyak, who launched Berkshire Living in November 2004, said the timing was right for the addition of a high-quality, business lifestyle magazine that will showcase and support the burgeoning business climate in the Berkshires.
“BBQ was cooked-up, much like Berkshire Living, out of a dearth of high-quality, feature-oriented business journalism in the region,” said Zivyak, who pointed out that many general-interest regional magazines around the nation have embarked on similar business-oriented publishing ventures in the last few years. “We view BBQ as an Inc. or Fortune magazine for the Berkshires—something we believe will be another great addition to the region.”
Zivyak announced that Seth Rogovoy would assume the role of editor-in-chief of BBQ while retaining his duties as editor-in-chief of Berkshire Living. “I can’t think of anyone I’d rather have at the helm of this launch than Seth, whose magazine-editing skills are incontrovertible, and whose work at Berkshire Living has already garnered us two National City and Regional Magazine Association awards for general excellence in two short years.”
For his part, Rogovoy said he looked forward to the challenge of creating a new forum for profiling the efforts of those who have found ways to succeed in business while living in the Berkshires. “BBQ will shine a light on those people and businesses whose practices mesh seamlessly with life in the Berkshires, reflecting Berkshire values such as stewardship and sustainability, while at the same time successfully competing in the commercial marketplace.” Rogovoy added that all articles in BBQ will boast “takeaway,” lessons shared from other’s experiences as well as useful information that can be applied to the largest companies as well as to the smallest neighborhood moms and pops. He also encouraged all businesses to be in touch with him directly to pass on news and pitch story ideas.
Also joining the BBQ team is Berkshire Living production director Josh Getman and circulation director Stephanie Skinner.
BBQ will premiere in the fourth quarter of this year, featuring stories drawn from the region’s retail, financial, education, publishing, marketing, medical/health, legal, culture, manufacturing, and hospitality sectors. The magazine, geared to C-level officers, small business owners, and general readers interested in the business scene, will boast regular guest columnists, survey the latest in productivity tools, and forecast trends—all with the same high standards of narrative writing, beautiful photography, and state-of-the-art design familiar to readers of Berkshire Living.
Like Berkshire Living, BBQ is one of the few remaining independent, locally owned press outlets in the region. BBQ will be directly mailed to a circulation of 12,000 highly qualified business-minded individuals; business owners, presidents, and CEOs in the greater Berkshire region; a list of national site-selectors; a list of the best corporate prospects of the Berkshire Economic Development Corporation; and every member of the Massachusetts legislature; as well as be available for sale on regional newsstands.
