Are you the person who tells everyone what is going on? Where to buy the best meat? And maybe, people give you a hard time about it? I get it! I want to tell everyone the good things going on where I live. If I get a good deal on shoes, everyone knows it! Amazing customer service? You know it.
How does this help?
I started Positive News For You to let others know about the good things going on EVERYWHERE! And I can use your help.
“Hear ye, hear ye, hear ye.” (O-yez)
People who let others know the good things going on where they live. Making sure the world knows about the special things that are happening. The events that are upcoming.
Years ago, I had 3 printed newspapers. (Valley Photofieds, The Weekly Clarion, The Compass) and one of the most sought after pieces, were the writers who communicated everything from the births, engagements, weddings, and deaths and everything in between. (I know the world is a different place.) They also talked about what was going in their communities. They sent me pics of parades, events, and more. They were my Town Criers. My Ambassadors. The backbone of what we did.
The world needs those people again!
So…
What am I thinking?
I am thinking of building out community page. In 1996, I wrote about a town called Happiness. It received 100K views per month on my site. (We received over a million hits per month.) On some levels, this is what I am talking about.
What if that page did this?
