Editor's Notes
- You saw the circulation revenue number for 2010 when we reviewed the financials for the year. This slide gives you a sense for the department’s revenue’s contribution over the past five years and where we expect it go in 2011. The spike in revenue from 2007-2009 was primarily due to increases in subscription rates. More recently, in the jump has been due to a combination of price adjustments as well as aggressively targeting commercial delivery partnerships, with other Puget Sounds area daily newspapers (Tacoma and Everett) and with national publishers – The Wall Street Journal, New York Times and Investor’s Business Daily. You can see the 2011 number is tracking higher yet again, this is due to a new single copy delivery relationship with USA Today (starting this month), the annualization of our late 2010 circulation arrangement with the Everett Herald and a planned modest 2011 price increase. Questions?
- In print and online, 7 of every 10 adults in King and Snohomish counties read us in a typical month. 80 percent of adults in Seattle read us. 76 percent of adults on the Eastside read us. And, perhaps most surprisingly to those naysayers, more than 50 percent of young adults read us.
- But we don’t take that audience for granted. That’s why we’re working hard to deliver our content to readers how they want it, where they want it, when they want it. With our printed paper to our Web site to our Twitter feed to our Facebook page to our iPhone app, we believe we can be a 24-hour news-and-information companion, tailoring our content to take best advantage of each medium. In print, we emphasize in-depth reporting, perspective and context. On Seattletimes.com, we stress multimedia and interaction. On mobile devices, it’s all about immediacy and ease of use.
