TORRANCE, Calif. — LCT Magazine changes the industry’s information game with its new website at LCTmag.com. The new site features more content than ever before.

It provides users with easy access to all industry news and features, with categories focusing on the most relevant industry topics:  technology, vehicles, people of the industry, regulations, industry research, and operations.

For those new to the industry, there is a section called “New Operator” that contains everything newcomers need to know.

The redesign allows for a continuous flow of information that will be posted more often than before. The user-friendly navigation will allow users to easily find informative articles, such as the new publisher’s page about how limo operators can attract more meeting planners, and the cover feature in the upcoming June/July article about how new technology tools can help operators gain more business in the meetings market.

Other content offerings include more photo galleries and summer vehicle tips from Executive Limousine.

Users can search through a comprehensive vendor and manufacturer directory and browse upcoming events.
