Welcome to Central Iowa Business

Central Iowa Business magazine is new to our publishing company, but it probably is not new to you and most of central Iowa’s businessmen and women. It was launched in 2005 and published by PAD Media Inc., (Urbandale, Iowa) as a viable alternative to the metro area’s other business publications. The launch was so successful and the potential so great, PAD Media Inc. President Patrick Klopf thought our custom publishing company might see the opportunity as well. It did not take us long to see his vision and develop a plan to welcome Central Iowa Business into our family of award-winning custom published local, regional and national magazines.

But why acquire Central Iowa Business when we already publish Iowa’s premier state-wide business magazine Iowa Commerce, the official magazine of the Iowa Association of Business and Industry? Good question... but the answer is simple. It fills a niche in the business community not currently being served by any other locally published business magazine, journal or newspaper and is the perfect complement to our Iowa Commerce magazine.

The niche Central Iowa Business fills is twofold. First, its targeted distribution saturates the golden circle marketplace making it available through over 300 high traffic locations throughout the Des Moines and Ames metro areas. Second, the content and information addresses a variety of topics to help you manage your business better and stay on top of what’s happening in the local business community.

Pioneer Communications, Inc., founded in 1996, celebrates 10 years of publishing success in 2006. Our success is due to our ability to identify magazines serving a need in the marketplace, and to design, publish, print and distribute them with exceptional quality.

We welcome Central Iowa Business to our Pioneer Communications’ family, and more importantly, we welcome you to Central Iowa Business.
