Magazine Publishers of America has announced that they are partnering with Google to host “Magazines 24/7: Google Day NY”. Here are details from the MPA blog:
Google team leaders will discuss digital strategies for magazine publishers to improve websites and build audiences. Topics include: how to maximize revenue with your website; growing your digital audience; and new opportunities for selling subscriptions online. We’ll announce more specifics on the May 14 event in the coming weeks, but it’s free to the first 200 people from MPA-member companies who sign up for the March 3 “Magazines 24/7” conference.
This event is a companion to the MPA conference being held in New York at the same time. The is considerable work being done within US magazine publishing houses to leverage online opportunities. Newsagents risk finding out about this activity and impact late in the day. This is another reason we need flexible shopfits.
