The Magpie Project - News Product & Audience Strategy for News Organizations
PROCESS
Finding out if this will work for you is simple. There is no sales pitch or demo. If you reach out, we'll have a conversation about your needs and budget. From that conversation I'll draft a proposal that makes the costs and deliverables clear. If your project is large, complex, or multifaceted, I'll propose a small, affordable discovery effort designed to help me construct a proposal that is accurate in terms of timeline, scope, and cost.
As we find the right partners to work with you, I will present resumes and schedule interviews or, if you prefer, simply assemble a team that best suits your needs.
ABOUT
Hi, I'm Matthew. I started the Magpie Project to help news organizations find success with their digital product and audience efforts by accessing talent and expertise that may not otherwise be within reach. I partner with each organization and find the right people to help them grow, cultivate, and better serve their audiences.
I've been working in news, nonprofit, and platform technology for almost two decades. I have deep experiences in news product development, AI, content management systems, ad tech, building native applications, selecting donation and fundraising tools, and many other things but, as it turns out, the thing I'm best at is making connections between people who are passionate about the success of news and information ecosystems.
Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to tell you about what we do. I look forward to working with you.
