Public Policy Communicators NYC is an informal group of nonprofit and foundation communications executives that has been meeting roughly bimonthly over the past five years to explore contemporary, practical topics to improve our work. Whether it’s looking at macro issues like FCC policy on “net neutrality” or micro issues like how to make the most of low-cost multi-media, PPC-NYC meetings bring members into close contact with experts for full conversations that generate new ideas.
**This is a brown bag lunch series. Come early and network with your colleagues while you eat your salad or sandwich before the program begins at 12:30 PM**
This Session: What It Really Takes to Build an Audience for Your News/Blog
Many Philanthropy New York and PPC-NYC members now have blogs and/or serial news publishing capacity on their websites. They are working hard to produce relevant content for their audiences, but are feeling that the “if you build it, they will come” axiom hasn’t come true. Many are wondering if there are secrets to bringing in larger audiences — or at least little-known best practices — that they still haven't figured out yet.
We are gathering a panel of foundation and nonprofit communications leaders who have successfully developed large audiences for their blogs and news sites to learn from their experiences.
