#MVJ2021 Day 2

The interactive live discussion will help attendees to identify their niche, cultivate and serve a dedicated audience, develop a revenue portfolio, and sharpen their negotiating skills.

MVJ has spent the past two years helping veterans to build careers in established legacy newsrooms, but there is a growing understanding of how essentially our community needs journalism entrepreneurs to improve the diversity of media content. We need more of them to cater to underrepresented communities, and we need them to be able to earn a living through their ventures. 

Jeff Jarvis will bring his visionary ideas to this webinar on how to shape, support, and serve this emerging, diverse group of “armies of one” by helping them with the complex process of carving out a sustainable niche for their product.
