Worldwide the consumption of news continues to esculate and New Zealand is not immume
There is an old saying "you can't see the wood for the trees" which something we all suffer from at various times. Now I have had such an attack, its not painful, not even frustrating, no physical signs at all and in fact I didn't even know I had it until now.
Fortunately the remedy is nearly at hand with no prescriptions, pills or vile medicine to take , just a dose of goodwill is all thats required. And this could very well come from you, yes it could.
Now this is a remedy of many parts each of equel strength and importance. Each part will compliment the other yet be completely different in their individual make-up. Some will be responsible for what is being made every day on the factory floors and workplaces country wide and others will be aware of what is happening.
However there is one common element - each part has an interest in sharing information with the others thus completing the remedy.
So if you have an interest in what is happening in the productive sector in New Zealand, and by that I mean an interest in any of the many engineering disciplines (including digital apps and games development), any of the trades, manufacturing, construction, those who have seen an opportunity and gone for it, then you can help me recover. You see the answer is simply this - would you like to become a contributor to MSCNewsWire and share what you may already post on social media?
The bad news first: it dooesn't come with an annual salary, or even an hourly rate for that matter or payment by the word, no company car or expenses and you have to provide your own mobile, laptop or tablet, social media account and bursts of coffee!
But the good news is that your contributions will be viewed on MSCNewsWire that presently enjoys over 50,000 views a month plus you will be helping promote our productive sector to an interested global audience. A thought - if we do this right together then there is absolutely no reason why commercial opportunites can't be developed. You just never know what tomorrow will bring.
So thats it really. With a bit of luck I'll get the medicne to fix the condition and you'll get to start what could be an interesting and rewarding journey, along the way contributing to the growth in the consumption of news in a positive way.
