Newsagency of the future workshops encourage growth

Opportunities for new shopper traffic, higher GP% and greater per visit value.

We invite you to a new free business management workshop for newsagents where I will share an insight into trends in current trading data, trends for core categories overseas and opportunities for growth as we all recast our businesses.

We will ask some tough questions and through these navigate to challenges that sit at the root of some newsagency channel core categories and work through, with you, several opportunities growth in these.

What we explore together will be relevant to any newsagent in any situation, large or small, city or country. The sole focus will be on creating a brighter future, even if that means for you your own business exit strategy.

You will receive valuable takeaways you will be able to use right away as well as thought-provoking questions each of us in retail will have to answer.

While some examples will be newsXpress related, this is not a newsXpress sales event. It is a continuation of our Newsagency of the Future Workshops, which we first ran in 2004 and have evolved ever since.

I will also share newsXpress case studies where business owners have recast their businesses through change. These will include city and country businesses. Large and small.

Please, join us as we invest in a stronger, but different, newsagency channel.

newsXpress hosting in-store marketing events

newsXpress is continuing to host traffic generating marketing events for newsXpress members to help uncover new traffic opportunities in and around their businesses.

Here are a couple of photos from a recent event in regional NSW where we helped a newsXpress attract new shoppers from the region to check out new products and engage with the business for the first time.
