Welcome to Flytedesk’s resource hub. Here, you’ll find all of the resources we have available for student media organizations. These resources will help you make actionable changes and see impact across your organization, but we focus on four core topics, based on the Local Independent Online News Association's pillars of sustainability:
We want to help student media organizations reach their core audiences and increase their journalistic impact. Here, you'll find materials about audience engagement, SEO, promotions and marketing, and more.
Student media teams face unique challenges like staff turnover, limited resources, and outdated systems. Our resources, tools and tips are designed to help you stay organized and adaptable through these common hurdles.
Building sustainable revenue streams is crucial for student media organizations. Whether through national advertising opportunities, local ad sales, fundraising or other avenues, we provide guidance to help strengthen your financial foundation.
Student media serves a dual purpose: delivering quality journalism while providing valuable learning opportunities. We offer resources that support both student leaders and professional staff in fulfilling this educational mission.
Here, you'll find the research and reports we've developed in collaboration with college students from across the country, with student media in mind. These resources offer insight into students' spending habits, behaviors, and values and provide guidance on how to apply this information to your student media operations.
