challenge
The Positive Community is the only faith-based lifestyle magazine targeted to the African American market in the new york / new jersey area. as its tagline denotes, the magazine focuses on the “Good News from the Church and the Community.” Developed through the joint vision of Mr. Al Koeppe (The Newark Alliance), Dr. Clement Price (Rutgers University), Rev. Dr. M. William Howard (Bethany Baptist Church) , and in celebration of the 10th Anniversary of The Positive Community magazine, Newark Leadership Roundtable Series (NLRS), consists of three roundtable discussions on Education, Business, and Health and Safety, a November Town Hall Meeting and Small Business Expo and The 1st Annual Positive Community Awards during MLK Weekend in January 2012. NLRS is an invitation only event, but the discussions will broadcast live via the website.
solution
We developed a web and social media presence that will allow the general public to participate in the discussions via the web. the website is focused on presenting the various aspects of the series, while engaging visitors. During the event, the site features live streaming video of the event, along with live social media stream which allows visitors to login via their twitter or facebook profile and join the conversation. Our social media moderators will be on-site at each event relaying the public’s questions and comments to the panel, and posting their responses in real-time.
