Hey /biz/ i need some advises and tips, im trying to start a newspaper in my uni, how can i make it profitable and create the need in students to read it, it will be free btw
Create a website and have ad spaces. No one fucking reads newspapers, let alone a couple A4 pages from some random, creepy student with 0 social skills.
Also, clickbait. A lot of clickbait.

I don't see how this deliver success in my country people still reads newspaper, i had the idea of banner ads but not filling the website this lame publicity that makes people hate it, and nobody browses web pages anymore, people nowadays thinks that facebook is the whole WWW

I don't think a free startup uni newspaper is going to be profitable
to actually make money you'd need to get it through advertising but who's going to pay you to put ads on a newspaper no-one has heard of that's only going to be read by students at a university?
if you're wanting to write something in particular you're better starting a blog and really as >>1045344 says doing anything without the internet in 2016 is dumb.

The trick here is that is going to be in most of all unis in my country and there are a lot of companies that will pay the a decent fee, fyi the cost of printing monthly for me it will be around 1000$ if i can gather that sum and have a surplus im good
get grants or print borderline pornographic pictures and racy sex advice columns

>A lot of clickbait.
-Are Humanities degrees devaluing education?
-This Maths Major made $300K starting, and he'll show you how!
-I can't believe what Affirmative Action is doing to our universities!
-The cafeteria doesn't serve halal, and that's not ok.
And so on and so forth. OP might be able to pick up Jezebel readers.

Then start a facebook page and sell ad space.

Those headers will catch some people i need to work on that writing.
How will you guys recommend, as the best ways to sell space on the physical paper to companies there will be some interested like bookstores, phone, internet, cheap cars, some unis with courses, how can i sell then looking confident ?
