About Us

The Santa Clarita Valley Business Journal (SCVBJ) is a premier business-to-business and consumer resource publication of The Signal, the Santa Clarita Valley’s daily news source since 1919.

Published on the last Thursday of each month, the SCVBJ is a full-color premium publication that is printed on a combination of glossy stock and bright-white, heavy-stock paper. It has a total monthly distribution of 20,000; 12,000 copies are inserted inside The Signal for delivery to paid subscribers and 8,000 copies are mailed to CEOs or owners of individual “unique” businesses.

Every month the SCVBJ publishes featured industry profiles or business-trend stories; news stories about opportunities available to SCV businesses; marketing and tax tips and other useful news; a business resource guide and a comprehensive business calendar for the month.

Monthly graphic features offer statistics on commercial vacancy rates, local stocks, unemployment rates, new housing starts, median home prices, residential home sales statistics and commercial real estate statistics.

The SCVBJ also publishes monthly columns, many written by SCV business leaders, on economic development, business consulting, human relations or business insurance, construction-related news and news from the Santa Clarita Valley Chamber of Commerce and the Valley Industrial Association, as well as “People and Places” features about promotions, awards, new businesses or new business services; and “Out and About in the SCV” featuring photos of local business activities.
