Les Loggins Marketing Launches Blog To Cover Marketing News Affecting Northeast Florida Businesses

Jan. 2, 2012 - PRLog -- Jacksonville, Fla. – With increased business activity, such as the expansion of JAXPORT and manufacturing companies locating to the area, Les Loggins Marketing has launched a blog to provide information regarding marketing activities affecting businesses in Northeast Florida.
   The blog’s name is NEFlaBusinessMarketing and has the URL address of http://neflabusinessmarketing.blogspot.com.
   The author of the blog is Les Loggins, president of Les Loggins Marketing. He is a 35-year veteran of the advertising/public relations/marketing industry. He currently runs his own firm that serves clients in the areas of retail, manufacturing, financial, insurance, medical, real estate, automotive, packaged goods and trade associations.
   “While the market has suffered during the recession, even worst than most of the state, Northeast Florida is showing indications that it is poised for a major comeback,” Loggins explained. “Jacksonville’s port has been aggressive in engaging major Asian carriers. They have a new director dedicated to port expansion and deepening of the port.
       “Along with the port, manufacturing and logistics, a natural business extension, is also looking at promising growth. The area has recently seen two major manufacturers commit to Jacksonville - Saft America, a battery manufacturer from France, and Embraer, a plane manufacturer from Brazil. In addition, North Florida Shipyards, GE Aviation and BAE Systems Southeast Shipyards have landed major contracts.
       “Backing this business growth effort is Florida Governor Rick Scott, new Jacksonville Mayor Alvin Brown and the First Coast Manufacturing Association, now led by its new president, Florida State Representative Lake Ray. What may be for the first time in many years is a cooperative coalition of state and city government leaders working with private sector leaders.
       “So with the economic potential increasing in a favorable business climate as Northeast Florida, I thought it was a good time to start a blog covering the area’s business marketing,” Loggins added.
