Despite being relatively old by digital standards, this distribution channel and engagement technology remains the most powerful tool for building audiences, driving engagement, and growing subscriptions and memberships. Newsletters enable "greater direct engagement and relationship-building with a core audience, helping more folks down the audience funnel to become loyal supporters." And, advocates. This is true of not just media, but retail media and many direct-to-consumer businesses. Do you agree?

Why is it important for newsrooms to join platforms such as TikTok? "[Gen Z & Alpha] are much less likely to come to your site intentionally, so you need to be social-first," says the Valuable Young Audiences report. TikTok is structured to prioritize content that incorporates attention-grabbing and sensational elements, encouraging numerous users to share unverified assertions and inaccuracies. To tackle these issues, news outlets should focus on the root cause. TikTok frequently witnesses the propagation of misleading information, necessitating newsrooms to allocate resources for easily understandable, vertical video explanations. They must excel in establishing trust and credibility on platforms where such qualities are scarce. https://lnkd.in/gkjcbYFh

Head of CUNY's Engagement Journalism program | Media and Audience Strategist | Change Management Advisor | f. TED, WSJ, DNAinfo
Capitalism is here to stay, at least for now. But what if we could harness its power to support the lifeblood of our society and democracy: community news? When Melanie H. Figueiredo and S. Mitra Kalita shared the powerful idea for a new metric that celebrates the incredible work of BIPOC newsrooms, I knew I had to be a part of spreading the word. This "currency of impact" is a game-changer, rewarding genuine engagement over empty clicks and leveling the playing field for diverse communities in the advertising world. I am proud to have contributed to the recently released white paper. Diving into interviews with the trailblazing leaders of these newsrooms rekindled my passion for local and community news. In a time when hope feels scarce in the media landscape, these conversations filled me with a renewed sense of optimism. The incredible work deserves our support and recognition. Don't just take my word for it – read the white paper here. After years convincing news leaders about balancing scale and engagement, this sophisticated (yet simple!) model feels potent. Would love to hear how you might apply these same principles yourself: https://lnkd.in/eqtUQF4A
Vice President @ URL Media | Client Services & Retention, Media, Account Strategy, Upselling, Building Revenue & Community, Grassroots Outreach, Teams, & Opportunities
About 2.5 years ago, I was immersed in an endeavor: trying to make my first sale for URL Media and frustrated by the stale conversations I continued to have with media buyers about CPMs and ad tech. 🤖 📉 I began experimenting with a phrase in my pitch meetings, challenging some of these same media buyers and prospects to shift their lens on the value of community media publications. To not just consider scale, reach, and CPMs…but rather, IMPACT on audiences. What was the power of impact? What if impact were its own currency? 💥 💡 💵 I remember engaging with trusted colleagues like Junmian Sun, and Rachel Huff about my theory, and receiving enthusiastic feedback and encouragement. And then bringing this idea to our founders, Sara M. Lomax and S. Mitra Kalita. And very quietly, as they do with our most magical things at URL, they found a way to turn this into a much larger collaboration. With funding from Reynolds Journalism Institute to launch this project, and support from folks like William Lager and Kat Duncan we began a full-fledged conversation on how to pilot a new tool, and pioneer a new way forward for those involved in community media and needing more opportunities from advertisers. 💰 This work feels especially poignant as ad tech seemingly continues to implode and shift around us…And I’m incredibly proud to put my name, my stamp on this work that feels ahead of its time and also more urgent than ever.

News from the industry. Despite claims that X is becoming a more trustworthy source of news and information, social media users are relying on the platform less and less for such, with TikTok now a bigger source of news coverage in many regions. That’s according to the latest Reuters Institute Digital News Report, which looks at how people are accessing news content around the world, and the role that social platforms are playing in such. The report incorporates responses from more than 94k respondents, from 47 nations, providing the most comprehensive snapshot of global news consumption habits.
