In practice, you quickly notice that printing high-quality school newspapers is not a really easy project. So what steps should you definitely take to ensure that the project is a success?
The editor-in-chief:
It is very important to first entrust a truly reliable person to manage the editorial team. This is responsible for coordinating and monitoring all processes and decisions, it always has to keep an eye on everything and is the most important institution for all types of information. The editor-in-chief should have enough free time and also be resilient. It is advisable to always have a contact person for communication with classmates, the companies involved and of course the sponsors. Above all, so that no information is lost and no problems arise.
The year list:
What is needed is a list containing the name, current address, cell phone number, email address and date of birthday of all classmates.
Set up the email account:
It is helpful for the editorial team to set up an email account that the entire team has access to. At the beginning of the project you can set up an email distribution list with which you can send circular emails. You can also use the email account for questionnaires or your classmates can send pictures.
The workspace:
The team needs a suitable work space where they can meet at regular intervals and work together on the project.
Set up a bank account:
In order to generate money for the school newspaper, it is good to set up a bank account that everyone involved can transfer directly to. But it also makes sense to set up such an account if you want to sell advertisements. This makes it much easier to manage incoming payments from advertising customers. But the school newspaper shouldn't consist of too much advertising space, after all it's about the past years that the students have spent together.
