It is not a question in anyones mind that newspaper circulation is down and that newspaper marketing agency have their work cut out for them. Newspapers have the option to learn from their past success and convert that into higher revenue.

In the last 10 years newspapers have been slowly losing more and more customers to online news sources and advertisers shifting revenue. Newspapers enjoyed decades of high profit margins and were slow to adapt to the changing world around them. Now the time has come to change the way they do business before it is to late.

How can the newspapers stop the slow bleed and increase their revenue before it is to late? The number one way to increase revenue will be for newspaper advertising to diversify their revenue model immensely. Then the newspapers will have to expand their brand in a big way.

Newspaper sales were a direct result from newspaper marketing. Newspapers used their brand and recognition to sell subscriptions to more and more people. The product they commoditized was information. People could now know all of the things that transpired throughout the world.

Revenue was generated via newspaper circulation subscriptions and through placed ads within the content of the paper itself. With the advent of online marketing and advertising newspapers sale are in decline along with advertising revenue.

The plus side to all of this news is that newspapers have the ability to learn from their past success and make positive changes. The first change newspapers can do is encourage more and more people to use their websites for a source of local news and information.

The second thing newspapers should do is leverage their brand by co opting other successful models such as Craigslist and eBay. By offering a platform for people to exchange goods for little to nothing in limited quantities their website would see a drastic boost in traffic. As demand grows newspapers can charge additional fees for listing position, images, bold fonts, colors and the like.

Thirdly, newspapers handle most of their marketing internally. With the technology available newspapers could bring in advertising revenue by brokering advertising across all platforms of media. Newspaper could profit by offering advertising packages that cover print, billboard, radio and digital.

Newspapers have the ability to increase their revenue by changing their advertising and circulation model. The old ways of doing business for newspapers has passed and the future holds ample opportunity to rake in stray advertising dollars.

The ability to adjust business models is still within reach of newspapers. The changing model will reflect the need to branch out into more markets, across multiple platforms and expanding their brand online. The key will be to match their existing local brand to a brand that is recognized on the worldwide internet platform.

My niece will have just turned five by the time she gets in town for a visit. So far in life we are her very favorite place to visit. I think it is because we have a million kids and a crazy dog for her to play with, but selfishly of course I say it is because she loves us! I think it is also because we let her be crazy with us too! Last year when she came for a visit I introduced her to the art of powder sugaring your chocolate chip waffles! It was indeed truly priceless! Now, I make my waffles out of whole wheat of course, so that when we add all the sugary stuff to them we still can feel healthy about them! But, for her the best part is the powdered sugar! I first let her make her own waffle and then it happened! I let her put on her own powdered sugar with a powdered sugar shaker that I have (it works like sprinkles). A few sprinkles and she was hooked, line and sinker! She wanted to shake more and more on, and because I am the world’s best aunt, of course I let her. What cracked me up to pieces though is when she took the shaker from my hand and informed me “I’ll clean that for you” and before I knew it she licked all the sugar off the top of the lid, over and over until it was clean! And, again….because I am a good aunt, I let her!

When I leave my children at home alone with my husband I always have to prepare myself for the fact that when I return there may be some amount of chaos going on. Now, this chaos that I speak of is not necessarily a bad thing, but it is indeed chaos none the less. Some friends of ours called the other day and asked if we would like to take on their one hundred gallon fish tank. Well, seeing that we had to leave ours behind when we moved across the country, I said yes. So, the tank arrived and after much cleaning and a new set of fish, it was set up nicely in the corner of our living room. I had left to do some shopping and they had all decided to stay home and watch a movie. Sometime during their movie watching experience the light on the tank apparently had started to flicker. The men folk then decided that we needed a new light. After a trip to the store they decided to change out the light. This is the story I got when I came home and found water all over the carpet. The meat behind the story was that one of the boys held the new light while my husband and the others directed him on placement. The light then apparently “jumped” out of my son’s hand and into the water, while it was not only plugged in, but also while it was still in his hand! Of course he is being shocked while they all laugh. The light submerges itself into the tank and of course also shocks and kills half the fish. Needless to say, chaos at its best, and we still need a new light!
