All Access To Close Its Doors In August

/by

AllAccess.com has announced it is ceasing operations on Aug. 15 after 28 years in business.

The shuttering of the longtime radio and industry publication comes due to a marked decrease in revenues that makes moving forward impossible, according to a statement on the company’s website, which will remain online for an undetermined amount of time.

“This is without question the saddest and most heartbreaking moment of my professional life to have to tell you that AllAccess.com will cease publishing and will be going out of business,” says Founder, President/Publisher Joel Denver. “All Access began nearly 28 years ago and with the help of an amazing staff of professionals, the best in the business. We’ve weathered many changes and obstacles in the industry over these years. We’ve carved an incredible path and have taken each part of our operation to amazing levels of success through honesty, hard work, and passion for the radio industry, the music, the artists and our many readers, marketing partners, clients and our many contributing editors. Thank you all so much—we could not have done any of this without you.

“The goal has always been to provide cutting edge content for all sectors of our business. We’ve strived to provide the best and most credible Net News coverage, help people find jobs and stay connected. We have been blessed with wonderful partnerships and have created many valuable services for all parts of the radio and music businesses and have the support of nearly 100,000 active users.”

All Access has four Nashville-based staffers: Nashville Bureau Chief Phyllis Stark; Contemporary Christian Editor Todd Stach; Country Editor/Promotion Jeff Lynn; and Associate Country Editor Charese Fruge. Denver reports although the company is closing, he is not retiring from the business and will focus on new opportunities.
