Abstract

A strong brand drives revenue, especially in local markets. As it has been documented, a strong brand needs credibility and trust to be conveyed to the consumer. The purpose of the following workshop design is to provide the ethical, journalistic, packaging, writing, technical, and other brand-impacting skills to potential media contributors, and also to provide the basic understanding of how to market and cobrand content with other media outlets.
