Wouldn’t it be cool to have a newspaper all about engagement. There are loads of great stories on websites, in magazines, and on blogs about trust, co-creation, talent, making your workplace great, and much more. I thought it would be great if we could bring some of the best stories and research together. I said to myself, I’m going to make this happen.
I had heard about this fantastic company called The Newspaper Club so I got in touch and sure enough, they were able to help me out. They will print anything from 5 copies of the newspaper you design. Over a few days I compiled content, and edited like I’ve never edited before.
Finally, I was ready to print. I pushed the button. Nothing happened. Well I guess it wouldn’t, this real old fashioned newsprint idea takes a while you know. Seven days later, whump! 100 copies of Engaging Times hit the doormat, just in time for us to give them away at our Engagement Conference. And I can now add newspaper publisher to my skills list.
You can get your free copy of Engaging Times by clicking the link below. I really hope you enjoy reading it. If you would like to contribute to future issues or make a contribution to the cost of future issues (in return for some prime editorial space) then just let me know. I have a handful of copies of Issue 1 left. If you want a piece of engagement publishing history (steady on) then drop me a line from our contact us page. First come, first served.
