- OFFERS: Share resources about expanding outreach in a rural community. Share connections with a specific community that you'd be willing to share with certain groups who are looking to expand to that audience. Train other people about best newsletter techniques. Be available to journalists needing camaraderie.
- ASKS: Ask if for help converting new readers to subscribers during election coverage. Ask for the perfect language to explain to your boss why engagement is important. Ask for an accountability buddy to do your Election SOS homework.
