I’ve been contacted by a major media outlet looking for a story about the changes a town/city/neighborhood has seen as the result of The 3/50 Project. They aren’t looking for interesting promotions, neat ideas, or single-business success stories. They want an entire community where the Project has made a difference.
If you’re a participating business and can report specific widespread impact due to The 3/50 Project in your city or town, email me using the subject line MEDIA/TOWN.
Deadline: ASAP
Only responses including stories about actual community-wide results will be considered. They want the “effect” side of “cause and effect” for this one.
Thanks!
