Downtown Newsmagazine produces a number of special sections
and publications each year, promotion for which you will find on this page
as these special print and online products are introduced.
We like to think of ourselves as trendsetters. We take an innovative approach to special sections and publications that we produce. Our readers are members of a unique audience in Oakland County – higher education and income levels – so they have come to expect a resourceful approach from Downtown Newsmagazine not found with other publications.
Over a decade ago Downtown Newsmagazine pioneered a monthly feature – FACES – in which we profile people who either currently live or grew up in the communities of Birmingham, Bloomfield Hills or Bloomfield Township – each with a unique story to tell. We took this popular feature to a new level in recent years with profiles of members of the business community serving the Birmingham/Bloomfield area in a special section – FACES: BUSINESS. For 2024, we are producing an edition of FACES: BUSINESS in our July issue. Printed in full color on a heavier glossy stock and run through the center of Downtown Newsmagazine, the special publication will reach 40,000+ readers. For further information, click here.
Although we consider ourselves innovators in many ways, Downtown Newsmagazine for the August 2024 primary election and the November 2024 general election will be producing a Voter Guide, a practice that we follow in all major election years as a matter of company policy to provide critical information for our followers. Each Voter Guide includes candidates’ views on important issues, from local township and city boards, county offices, state representative and senate to congress, as well as school board candidates when those elections take place. For the 2024 elections we will providing the Voter Guides in digital format on our website where over 20,000+ visitors turn to each month for important information. The Voter Guide for both the primary and general election will be available earlier than in past years for the benefit of those casting ballots in person or by absentee ballot under the new voting regulations approved by voters in past elections.
