Newspapers, a case study in disruption, in 10 slides and 2 minutesPeter Winter
Newspapers are dying because they were unable to create genuine new digital products, born on the web. Their digital failure is instructive for any company confronting disruption. Here's the story of what happened - in just 10 quick slides and 2 minutes.
Earlier this month Twitter released the most popular global hashtags used worldwide in 2016. Tragic, triumphant or controversial as they might individually be, these events captured global attention and dominated news headlines. Here at Version 2.0 we have formulated our own "Hits List" of news, campaigns and promotions that helped our clients rise above the noise in their respective industries.
“Hyperconnectivity” is a term that describes a defining feature of contemporary society. Thanks to the Internet, mobile technology and increasingly the Internet of Things, people, places, organisations and objects are linked
together like never before.
More than a technological trend, hyperconnectivity is a cultural condition to which businesses have no choice but to adapt. But what does is it mean for companies,industries and consumers?
This complimentary seminar brought together some of Toronto’s top experts in each of these essential fields. Sales executives from across Toronto listen to George Albert and learned how to attract that next top performer that will bring in the ‘A’ accounts everyone is targeting.

Presentation on how traditional business models for news do not work online - and the possible alternatives being explored, including freemium models, selling services, and events.

The days of purely ad-supported media are numbered. Declining print circulation and dirt-cheap online CPMs (not to mention ad blockers) are precipitating a new model for news organizations. And it’s a good one, much more dynamic, but also more stable, with more evenly distributed sources of revenue. This presentation offers a better understanding of the trends so that viewers may come away with hands-on strategies for identifying and selecting the revenue models that best match your current and future reader base.

Startup Secrets - Game Changing Business ModelsMichael Skok
In our industry, it’s not uncommon for entrepreneurs to become so mono-focused on the novelty of their product that they forget to innovate sufficiently around their business model. A disruptive business model can be at least as important as a discontinuous innovation.

Publishing Problems
All businesses must be concerned with the rapid pace of change we face today. No company is secure, not even the largest and most profitable. Coping with change has been a business concern since people began doing business. Recall how the arrival of automobiles put buggy whip manufacturers out of business.
Today’s pace of change is unprecedented. Consider what has happened in the retailing arena. Online retail sales went from nearly nothing in the mid-1990s to a projected $242 billion in 2010. Traditional retailing stores have been heavily affected. eBay has become a retailing behemoth enabling individuals to buy and sell goods online with total annual sales in the billions of dollars.
Or consider the fate of many dot-coms. One of the most spectacular dot-com stories – the rise and fall of AOL – illustrates how technology (telephone-based online computing) created a huge success story, and how technology (Internet email) led to a reversal of this success.
A major goal of strategic planning is to anticipate environmental changes (economic, business, political, governmental, social) and prepare the organization for dealing with them. Clearly, in this age of rapid change, all business entities should engage in some measure of strategic planning. Without it, they will have difficulty negotiating today’s turbulent business environment.
One industry that is currently suffering the destabilizing consequences of the Internet revolution is the publishing industry. Included here are textbook publishers, trade book publishers, newspaper publishers, and magazine publishers. All publishers are facing serious challenges. Revenues are down across the board. If these challenges are not handled properly, there is a good chance that a large portion of the publishing industry as we now know it will go out of business.
One challenge publishers face is dealing with the fact that information traditionally controlled by them is now freely available to the public through the Internet. Not long ago, if a homeowner wanted to place tiles on his bathroom floor, he would purchase a How-to book. Today, he goes online and encounters several sources that show how to lay tile – some even provide a video clip to illustrate the process. As a result, sales of How-to books are plunging.
Case Study
Susan Feinman is publisher of
The Chronicle Gazette
, a leading newspaper in a major metropolitan area. Her paper has a paid circulation of 225,000 customers. It is a first-rate newspaper and over the years, its writers have won awards for their work.
Susan’s big problem is that there has been a steady decline in subscriptions to the newspaper. In the past eight years, subscriptions have fallen by a total of 35%. Because subscriptions have fallen, advertising revenue has also dropped – by 28%. Susan knows that declining subscriptions and revenues are affecting the entire publishing industry. Even the great newspapers – such as the
New Yor.
