Google News and Chalkbeat

Challenge

Insight

Find the right form (in this case, online workshops) to find your audience (journalists, who are online).

Solution

Grey Horse created a series of virtual workshops which publicized this resource to journalists, and the panels live on – and are finding a second audience – through YouTube.
