ICYMI: Our previous newsletter can be found here.
One of the wonderful things about starting from scratch is that we can throw away all pre-conceived notions of what a media business should be and build something completely new. I’ve always believed it was more effective to be different rather than better, so please expect that this will largely be the case in our new cycling media title.
This is where we’d like your help. We’re not out to reinvent the wheel, but I do want your input in how we differentiate and what you feel is missing or underserved from cycling media coverage.
Also, since our funding model will primarily based on membership support, I want to understand what you feel is a fair and reasonable price that you’d pay for the value we bring to the ecosystem (assuming we deliver on our promise of covering a gamut of cycling stories and information from road all the way to XC mountain biking).
If you would be so kind to take 3 minutes to answer this survey I’d greatly appreciate your input. This will help us understand where we can add value to the cycling media landscape and deliver something worth your attention.
Thank you.
Wade Wallace
I would like to add this to the survey....what I am looking for in cycling media, or any media, is to feel like we are all sitting around a table at a pub or bar, talking about the day or the news, sharing stories, making each other laugh and leaving feeling like I’ve been with friends and learned something.
I don't know Steve Maxwell or The Outer Line, but he just wrote an interesting article that relates to this survey in this week's Beyond the Peloton.
