| For Immediate Release | Contacts: Chip Magner (800) 633-5953, ext. 1208 Lmagner@randallpub.com | Commercial Carrier Journal receives prestigious award Tuscaloosa, Ala. (June 26, 2002) –Randall Publishing Company's Commercial Carrier Journal (CCJ) received the Silver Award for circulation excellence by Circulation Management magazine, a Primedia Company. The awards recognize outstanding achievement and innovation in magazine circulation, marketing and management."This award recognizes the hard work, effort and investment made by Randall Publishing and CCJ toward bringing qualified readers and advertisers together," Chip Magner, CCJ publisher, said. CCJ was recognized for its ability to accomplish many objectives in a short period of time. Having acquired CCJ in April 2001, Randall Publishing merged the magazine with its existing publication, Trucking Co., in June 2001. During that time, the CCJ staff combined circulation, published new truck ownership data in the marketplace and met the publishing goals - all while converting its database to a new fulfillment house. The CCJ team accomplished these actions well under the projected time frame and budget. "Our mission is to bring vendors and customers together," Magner said. "We accomplish this goal by combining our award winning editorial with premium qualified circulation, so when advertisers reach our qualified subscribers, ultimately, a transaction will occur." CCJ competed against other magazines with circulations of 100,000 or more. "We are very honored to receive an award in this category," Julie Puckett, CCJ circulation manager, said. "We believe that good circulation is the key to any magazine's success." CCJ provides complete business solutions for transportation professionals responsible for running trucking companies, operating fleets or maintaining equipment. The magazine serves for-hire and private carriers operating or maintaining 10 or more vehicles and is read by corporate officials, fleet managers and maintenance technicians.
