If a business is only as good as its employees, then business is booming right now at AY Media Group. While our readers and advertisers are the foundation to AYMG’s success, our hardworking employees are the engine that make us go.
Several of our team members were recognized on June 30 in the 2020 Arkansas Society of Professional Journalists Diamond Awards, and I couldn’t be more proud. Their work in both AY About You and Arkansas Money & Politics magazines were recognized. Our products look great and have quality content, too. Well done, guys.

Mayor Frank Scott Jr. is on our July cover. Not only is he a good guy, but Scott has done a good job guiding Little Rock through a turbulent 2020. Inside, we talk to him about his vision for ensuring that all businesses are operating on a level playing field. Scott tells us that he thinks the city has admirably maneuvered through a spring consumed by pandemic and protests.

I know there are a lot of lists out there. We hope the Future 50 list introduced in this issue will stand out from the crowd. Our vision was to recognize those business and community leaders in Arkansas, regardless of age, who will drive our future. These are the folks who will still be making a difference down the road. The honorees who made the list were nominated by AMP readers, so you know they’ve made significant impressions on their communities. Congrats to everyone on the list.
