Newsagents feature on 612 ABC Brisbane this morning

I have just pre-recorded a long interview with Steve Austin of the morning program on 612 ABC Brisbane today. We covered News Limited’s T2020 trial, the 80 cent price hike for the Adelaide Advertiser, the ATO Tax Pack situation, Australia Post corporate store competition, politician engagement and the migration of print to digital.

One of Steve’s questions was what’s the future of the newsagency? It’s a tough question, one I feel optimistic about as regulars here would see.

If you’re in Brisbane try and catch the program. I am not sure when this morning the interview will run.  I’ll look for a link later in the day.

    I’ve had quite a few positive comments from customers this morning who heard the entire segment. I did laugh when one customer told me how a lady had rung in from one of our neighbouring suburbs to complain about how her newspaper deliveries had gone to the dogs since QNP took over the organisation of them.

    It’s been quite good to hear alot of people vocalising strong support for us as a local small business after hearing the radio show.
