What's New at Your Company? Tell Us!
Every day, Graphic Media Alliance members are accomplishing great things. New equipment is being installed. Employees are being recognized. Companies are expanding, innovating, giving back to their communities, and reaching important milestones.
The challenge is that we don't always hear about it.
That's why we're excited to continue building the GMA Newsline, a simple and effective way for members to share company updates, achievements, community outreach efforts, workforce development initiatives, promotions, retirements, awards, and other newsworthy accomplishments directly with our team.
By submitting your news through the GMA Newsline, you help us tell the story of our industry and showcase the strength, innovation, and impact of Graphic Media Alliance members throughout Ohio, Michigan, and Northern Kentucky. Your submission may be featured in The Communicator, highlighted on the GMA website, shared through member communications, or included in future industry spotlights.
With the next issue of The Communicator just around the corner, now is the perfect time to share your story.
We look forward to celebrating your successes and sharing them with the GMA community.
