Fractional CMO For Maddyness UK | Expert in Marketing & Digital Transformation | Startup Investment Specialist |Former CMO at CityAM | Scale Up Investor | Founder Impact AM & We Are Rebel Media | Board Member and N.E.D.
A Sign of the Times: Is this the Death of Daily/All Print Media? I ran a publication printed on recycled paper because I LOVE THE FEEL of turning a page BUT DOES THAT MEAN IT'S RIGHT? I then went on to launch Impact A.M. so I feel informed enough to ask this question Publishing is a small industry - disappointing for readers and the team at Evening Standard whom I have no doubt will have made every effort to keep it going - looking forward to reading a new successful weekly. It's hard not to see the Evening Standard's move as part of a larger trend – are we witnessing the end of daily broadsheets altogether? With City AM's fresh funding and new game plan, I sincerely hope this marks the beginning of a new chapter that positions us as a dominant force in the market. Reflecting on my time with Lawson Muncaster, which was one of the most career-defining periods, I believe City AM remains one of the premier brands across the Square Mile and the City. The Future is Digital – or Is It? There’s no denying the shift towards digital consumption, where morning news updates come straight to our phones with a simple tap. However, this raises a critical question: can print media still be viable in an ESG-conscious world? Can it remain authentic, competitive, and sustainable? Gihan Hyde and Julia Streets would love your thoughts on this along with Nim Haas Tracy W. Dr Jane Thomason and Amy Lewin who has pioneered Sifted into being one of my go-to publications for research and updates, last but by no means least the grafter,mover, shaker and hustler that is my new/old boss David Johnson as we will be shortly announcing a new exciting move with me rejoining the Maddyness UK team with official maddyness.fr email it is all very exciting. Innovative Distribution: A Strategic Advantage City AM’s 00's distribution model, reminiscent of my father’s pioneering days from Greenshield to being a founding team member of Argos, utilises a network of dedicated but skilled distributors. This old-school approach ensures cost-effective and efficient delivery, highlighting how print media can adapt and thrive even in challenging times. Amid rising paper and distribution costs, our industry faces significant hurdles. Balancing Tradition and Innovation As we navigate these changes, it’s crucial to strike the balance between embracing digital transformation and maintaining sustainable print practices. City AM's unique model proves that print media can still play a vital role if managed innovatively and sustainably. #Publishing #ESG #PrintMedia #DigitalTransformation #Sustainability #Innovation
As many in our industry will feel, it's disappointing to hear the news of the Evening Standard moving to become a weekly publication. I've been a keen reader of the Standard since we launched City AM in 2005 and often admired its editorial initiatives and crossed paths with members of the commercial team - we have had an amicable rivalry - albeit at opposite ends of the day. Inevitably, we had a couple of calls about plans for our print publication - the answer to which is business as usual. Circulation figures are positive and we’ll be investing in print distribution this Autumn, alongside our ongoing digital transformation. Publishing is a small industry - disappointing for readers and the team, whom I have no doubt will have made every effort to keep it going - looking forward to reading a new successful weekly. https://lnkd.in/e8ntHgpf

It can be extremely difficult to justify publishing stories and photographs from The Associated Press in premium, paywalled publications when that same content is available for free on the open Internet. So, it is not surprising that Gannett | USA TODAY NETWORK and McClatchy would take this approach. #newspapers #publishing #news

As the local journalism economy struggles, some rural papers are building on their assets: location, community connections, and innovation. "Small-town newspaper editors around the country – many of whom are overseeing their publications in their second or third century – who were interviewed for this article cite widely varying practices that have helped their publications, online and in print, stay relevant and stay in business. On one thing they all agree: the fate of small towns and their newspapers are inextricably linked and their prosperity is mutual – or not at all."

The newspaper folded… I never expected to be sad to hear that the Evening Standard’s last paper edition had rolled off the presses. But then, I never expected to hear that at all. After all, London has its own Mayor, it’s own transport system, its own police force, it’s own cultural life, its own economy, its own problems, its own solutions, it’s own people… banded by the M25, London has, in every way, it’s own distinct identity. You’d think it would have its own newspaper. Surely every city of note around the world has one. And they do, from the Boston Globe to the Kolner Stadt-Anzeiger. Except for London. Maybe it’s because so much of our national media is London-based and London-centric. There’s some truth in that. But the Standard had its own space, in the afternoon and evening, splashing stories of the day, through the day. The demise of the Standard is mostly self-inflicted. It had become more and more trivial in recent years. Whereas in times gone by, it had serious insight from heavyweight journos. The pink city pages with Chris Blackhurst, then Anthony Hilton, were in depth and at length. (And worth reading even for a non-finance person like me.) The headlines, the foreign news, the sport all had a perspective that being one city’s paper required and, for me at least, became required reading. But I’m writing this because, as someone in advertising, I think we’ve lost an important feature on the media landscape. The Standard delivered a very specific audience, at a known time of day, in a particular frame of mind. Most of them would be on the tube, able to concentrate on the paper for 30 minutes plus. What a resource! To engage them, the paper had to be lively, combative, campaigning, knowledgeable, insightful… and it had stopped being that, throwing in the towel as phones took over. As an industry, we’re losing more and more of the options we had to communicate with people. And it looks like we don’t care that much. Soon, online with all of its fraud and misinformation will be the only option… and advertisers will be poorer for it. It’s interesting that the Government are sufficiently interested in who owns the Telegraph to investigate the sale of that paper, yet seem unconcerned about the Standard’s ownership and demise. Both have/had circulations around 300,000. As Londoners we should have a paper to hold our city leaders to account and to represent our interests. As ad industry people, we should be interested in having a varied choice, in form as well as style, of media. With the Standard folding, we lose both. Yes it’s a case of use it or lose it… let’s exercise the choice we have to use the things we value and by doing so forcing them to improve before we lose them all to the algorithms.

Owner of NBR.co.nz, The National Business Review in New Zealand & NewMediaSolution.us & NewMediaSolution.co.nz a global, out of the box SAS media platform.
I agree with the need for change in the local news landscape. The shift from print media was inevitable, driven by the decline in advertising support that sustained many regional titles. Rather than embracing the potential of the Neighbourly platform, Stuff chose to shut down operations. It's clear that a new strategy incorporating technology and community engagement is crucial for the future of local news. Let’s work together to explore innovative solutions and ensure the continued relevance of local journalism. It’s not too late, this platform was created to solve the problem. NewMediaSolution.co.nz
The loss of the likes of Newshub, Sunday and Fair Go have understandably dominated discussion about the challenges in the media industry. But this story here - the end of one man's part-time role as a local reporter in the Tararua district - speaks to the less visible demise of community journalism. We all know local council decision-making becomes opaque when there isn't a reporter in the room listening to the arguments of councillors and officials. This alone is reason enough to mourn the loss of local papers. But something also goes missing when the little stories aren't being told. My first ever story I had published when I was studying journalism was 150 words on a preview of a fundraising secondhand book sale in Tawa. (I came prepared to the interview with questions written down in a notebook, spanning everything from the number of books on sale to the range of titles.) It's the type of story that rarely gets a look in anymore... see also beach clean-ups, business initiatives, student awards, neighbourhood policing, local sports results, foodbank drives and more. Community papers provided an impartial written and visual record of our suburbs and the people living there. Reporters like Dave Murdoch showed off the best of our character, as well as the ordinary and the quirky. Yes, I know, I should move with the times. Advertising revenue has fallen. Cost of printing is up. Facebook community pages are here. Market forces something something. I get it. But the loss of reporters like Dave Murdoch is still a blimmin shame.

As part of our Media and Journalism Research Center newly launched Global Media Finances Map project (thank you, Dean Starkman for providing inspiration, again:), for the name of the project), we're out with an analysis of the funding fueling the news media in print and online in Romania. Authored by Iulian Comanescu, a pleasure working with him on this project. #globalmediafinancesmap #online #politics #romania #printmedia
As part of the Romanian chapter of the Global Media Finances Map, our expert, Iulian Comanescu, conducted a thorough analysis of the print and online media landscape. His findings reveal a substantial decline in advertising revenues for both mediums, plummeting to just one quarter of their 2008 levels in 2019. This stark reduction has had discernible impacts on the quality and political integrity of these media outlets.
