I did an interview a few days ago and this was the opening question.
What does the future look like for Australian newsagency businesses?
While we won’t know the answer for years, what we know today is what we offer the local communities in which each of us serve.
The question from the journalist was rooted in a belief that our future relied on the sales of lottery products, newspapers and magazines.
Thankfully, for many in our channel that is not the case. Many of us have followed paths on which we do not rely on these legacy products while, at the same time, continuing to offer these products.
More of us in our channel to do more to spread the word that the local Aussie newsagency is evolving, and that the future looks bright because of this.
My newsagency software company serves more than 1,700 newsagents. That’s why we created this video and other collateral supporting the Aussie newsagency channel. I grateful to newsagents for their support.
