How to navigate a niche Social Community and Social Network

I'm still surprised at the number of brands that invest hundreds of thousands of dollars to directly reach a community, and then don't show up for the party. This is where that early planning you did with your social media, PR, and other teams really pays off: Plan for dedicated resources to ready you to participate in the conversation and give your campaign greater legs.

I'm still surprised at the number of brands that invest hundreds of thousands of dollars to directly reach a community, and then don't show up for the party. This is where that early planning you did with your social media, PR, and other teams really pays off: Plan for dedicated resources to ready you to participate in the conversation and give your campaign greater legs. People want to know the brand they're gathering around is hearing them, and they aren't just being used for some case study. If you're holding a contest within a publisher's community, get your social media team in there and collaborate with the publisher's. Be ready to respond if your oil and water communities end up in a catfight or if less-than-positive comments start to appear.

Live events are changing and not just becoming more innovative, but more sustainable. From stadiums to festivals, venue operators are under pressure to reduce waste, lower carbon impact, and streamline operations. But the truth is: meaningful sustainability doesn’t start with recycling bins… it starts with better systems. At Wicket, we’re seeing first-hand how frictionless access, digital identity, and efficient event operations can significantly reduce environmental impact: - Eliminating disposable wristbands & plastic passes - Cutting down paper ticketing and manual check-in - Reducing queue congestion (and the staffing + energy demands that come with it) - Creating smoother, cleaner, more predictable event flows - Minimising unnecessary hardware and operational waste When events run efficiently, they run greener. And when you layer in privacy-first biometric technology, the experience becomes both sustainable and sensational for fans. We’ve shared insights on why the industry is shifting and what major venues are doing right now to make live events smarter, faster, and more eco-conscious. Smarter access = better operations = more sustainable events. This is the future of live events.

ISGA (International Social Games Association)
The International Social Games Association (ISGA) recently submitted testimony to the California Senate Appropriations Committee in support of Assembly Bill 831. Our submission highlights the need to combat illegal real money sweepstakes casinos, which have wrongly equated themselves with free-to-play social casino games. We believe it is important for legislators to clearly understand the difference: Social casino games, such as those offered by our members, are designed purely for entertainment and do not allow redemption of virtual currency for real-world value. Real money sweepstakes casinos attract players through the prospect of cash or prizes, operating in a legal grey area that skirts state gambling regulations. ISGA recommends that legislation maintain a clear distinction between free-to-play social casino products and real money sweepstakes casinos.

MARC Radio Expands Florida Footprint With Five Stations MARC Radio has expanded its Florida presence with the acquisition of five mid-coastal radio stations stretching from Melbourne to Stuart, extending the company's reach to more than 100 miles along Interstate 95. The deal brings MARC Radio's total station count to 16 and adds a mix of AC, Country, and News/Talk formats serving Florida's Space Coast and Treasure Coast regions. The newly acquired properties include AC WGYL-FM (93.7), WJKD-FM (99.7), and WOSN-FM (97.1), Country WPHR-FM (94.7), and News/Talk WTTB-FM (105.7) and WTTB-AM (1490). "As a Florida-based company, we've had our eye on this market's potential," said Scott Miller, Chief Revenue Officer of MARC Radio. Miller cited population and economic growth moving north from the Miami-Fort Lauderdale area as a key factor in the purchase. He added that the company plans to invest in the stations to support their growth and better serve both listeners and advertisers. According to Miller, MARC Radio takes a selective approach to acquisitions, focusing on properties it believes will contribute to the company's long-term growth strategy.
