Newspapers, Jurgensmeyer said, are in the influence business. He goes on to quote Jurgensmeyer:“A newspaper produces two kinds of influence: societal influence, which is not for sale, and commercial influence, or influence on the consumer’s decision to buy, which is for sale. The beauty of this model is that it provides economic justification for excellence in journalism.” “This is true because a news medium’s societal influence enhances its commercial influence.

An influential newspaper will have more readers, be more trusted by those readers, and be worth more to advertisers.” Posted by richgor at April 20, 2007 10:48 PM Posted by Michael at April 23, 2007 1:44 PM Rich – thoughtful and comprehensive post.

Seven Strategies for Marketing in a Web 2.0 World. Cover Story Seven Strategies for Marketing in a Web 2.0 World By Darlene Fichter When you start to talk about marketing library products and services, the four P’s of marketing come to mind: product, pricing, promotion, and placement. Traditional marketing plans identified the product or service features that would satisfy the wants and needs of consumers, as well as the right price, the method of promotion, and the merchandizing or distribution.
