The Business Owner
Tulsa-Based Award-Winning Business Publication The Business Owner Is Getting a Whole New Look and Feel and Will Soon be Available Electronically Free of Charge

Tulsa, OK, March 16, 2009 – The Business Owner, a multiple award-winning periodical, is getting a fresh new look and feel, and will soon be available in an electronic format Free of Charge to its subscribers. Awards the publication has earned include: 2008 Hermes Creative Award for Best E-Journal and Overall Writing and Publication; 2008 Apex Awards for Excellence in Writing and Best E-Journal; and 2006 US Small Business Administration Oklahoma and Region IV Publication of the Year.

The Business Owner has been in circulation since 1977. It serves as a credible source of relevant information and expert advice that is easy to read and applicable to a wide range of industries and company sizes. It is written with owners in mind—ones who are committed to growth, resistors of the status quo and who are determined to succeed even in economically challenging times. Owners are busy people who need information that is straight-to-the-point and values their time, which the publication does in an outstanding way.

The Business Owner is currently receiving an exciting new facelift, transitioning from a one-way communication tool to an interactive resource where business owners are invited to receive as well as contribute their insight, knowledge and advice on an endless range of business topics. For those who enjoy reading a hard copy of The Business Owner, it will continue to be made available for an annual subscription fee of $299. This version is also undergoing a fantastic redesign and will be printed in four-color, on heavy stock, glossy paper. It’s certainly a publication subscribers will be proud of and look forward to receiving every other month.

The Business Owner will soon have completely new branding and all the currently printed expert advice will be available on a fresh and exciting new website. The site will provide access to a wide range of information in one location and most importantly, when business owners need it. If cash flow is a concern, owners will be able to simply search for cash flow topics and read current and past publications that deal with the subject. Tax season is upon us, so by simply searching for tax advice, owners will have multiple articles on the subject available to them. Subscribers will no longer need to collect stacks of journals and wonder which issue contained the information they need today. All of the articles will now be held in one location: www.thebusinessowner.com.

In addition to a new website, David Perkins is also very excited to introduce a brand new electronic version of The Business Owner which will be made available to its subscribers Free of Charge. Qualifying business owners who subscribe to the periodical will be invited to participate in an online forum. This forum will provide a place for owners to connect with fellow owners, at times offering advice and insight to situations that arise on a day-to-day basis, as well as receive advice from others who have successfully navigated some of the challenges every business owner encounters. Qualifying participants will also be invited to attend monthly hour-long board meetings where they hear from experts on a wide range of topics, and speak to subjects where they have personally achieved success.
