SUBJECT:
MIAMI BEACH INSERT IN MIAMI BUSINESS MAGAZINE
In August, the City Administration and the Miami Beach Chamber of Commerce met with
representatives of Miami Business Magazine to discuss the possibility of including a discussion of
the Miami Beach economy in a future issue. As a result of that discussion, Miami Business offered
to produce a 24-page Miami Beach insert in their November/December 2000 issue.
Miami Business Magazine was created three years ago to fill a void of local business information
for the Greater Miami area, In that time, while continuing to cover the overall economy of Greater
Miami, they have shown great commitment to the City of Miami Beach. As an example, the City
continues to use reprints from the December 1999 and April 2000 issues as part of its business
recruitment and relocation packages.
In addition to the 24-page insert, Miami Business Magazine has also provided the City and the
Chamber of Commerce with 10,000 copies of the Miami Beach insert for use in future economic
development activities, at no cost. Furthermore, if you are not currently receiving Miami Business
Magazine, they have extended an offer of 15 complementary subscriptions to the Mayor and City
Commission and members of the Administration.
