Rustan Burton
Rustan Burton has been hired as the new advertising director at The Daily Republic in Mitchell, S.D., a Forum Communications Co. newspaper. He joins the newspaper May 2.
Burton previously was the retail advertising manager at the Anchorage (Alaska) Daily News. Prior to that he worked in sales, property management, project management and independent real estate ventures. He is a native of Rexburg, Idaho. He and his wife, Anna, have four children.
“Rustan comes to us with a diverse background, which should give him a head start in his new position in Mitchell,” said Korrie Wenzel, publisher of The Daily Republic. “But what’s really intriguing is his interest and evident passion for media sales, both in print and online. He said he’s excited to be in South Dakota and we’re excited to have him here.”
The Daily Republic also has promoted Lorie Hansen to the position of assistant advertising director. Among her new duties, Hansen will oversee sales for the Advisor Advantage, another Daily Republic publication.
