Great ideas shouldn’t stay siloed. In this open conversation, stations will share practical, replicable concepts that have strengthened their content, operations, revenue, audience engagement, or community impact. This session is built around quick case studies (i.e. real experiments, smart pivots, small wins, and big swings) so attendees can walk away with strategies they can adapt immediately.
Rather than a formal presentation, this is a collaborative idea exchange. Presenters will briefly highlight what they tried, why they tried it, what it took to make it happen, and what they learned along the way. The goal is simple: equip stations with proven, station-tested ideas that can be lifted, tweaked, and applied to meet local needs.
Learning Goals / Key Takeaways:
- Identify proven, replicable ideas from peer stations that can be adapted to their own environment, regardless of size, capacity, or market.
- Understand the practical steps behind each idea (including staffing, workflows, timelines, partnerships, and costs) so they can realistically plan similar efforts.
- Spark cross-station collaboration by connecting with peers pursuing similar goals, challenges, or experiments.
