A very helpful reader asked for a listing of what they can do to help as The Local Insider grows in its opening months, so here’s my response.
• Purchase an affordable ad package by emailing . Several of our pages have sold out through the September primary, but there are still some great ones available.
• Make a one-time investment or become a regular contributor to strengthening local news. This money helps pay writers for their work.
• Tell your friends that they should reach out about advertising to .
• Share our Facebook page with your friends and family.
• Share and comment on the stories you love.
• Pay close attention to ads such as those from United Way of Rhode Island and others, especially those featuring a call to action.
• Read, read, read, to understand what’s going on in your community.
• Email with great tips, feedback, and frequent letters to the editor.
