Ahead of the 2023 Social Media Day celebration, Chinedu Hardy Nwadike has said that conventional media outfits will have to face the inevitable future.
Chinedu said that against what so many people think, social media is a tool that will boost their reach and finances of the conventional media and not one that will take them to the sideline.
He said that there are organizations in Nigeria who are taking advantage of social media, but media houses in Imo state will have to step up to ensure they join others in the future.
“There is no point in playing little and being in the past because we have absolutely nothing to gain from it. Most people say they are conservatives and have refused to embrace social media and what it offers”
“Social media has come to stay and there is nothing anyone can do about it. The best thing is for us to understand how it works and it doesn’t matter if we tag ourselves local or modern media”
To get practitioners close to the reality, OtownGist Media is organizing a one day webinar tagged ‘the Future and Finance’.
The webinar which will be taking place on Friday, June 30, 2023 will have speakers like Esiri Grant (MC Ominimini), Chidera RoseCamille Aneke (Certified Camille), John Okoye and Chinedu Hardy Nwadike.
Chinedu who is the founder of OtownGist Media said that the webinar will bring solutions against the regular complaints that the finances of conventional media houses are dwindling.
“We have a solution here and we have picked people who are in the media; who understand the ethics and who understand the alternative finances and contents that will change the fortunes of media houses”
“They have also practiced in Imo State, meaning they understand the dynamics of the business in the state”
Registration for the webinar is done via the link (CLIK HERE) and it is free of charge.
