Why We Chose the Name "NewsMakers Club"
New organization invites experts, authors, speakers, journalists, podcasters and communicators to join a community built around visibility, credibility and influence
GREENSBORO, N.C. — After considering dozens of possible names, organizers of a new national media and communications organization announced today that they have selected NewsMakers Club as the name of their new community.
The decision was intentional.
"Many organizations focus on reporting the news. Our focus is helping people become part of the news conversation"
— Mitchell P. Davis, Founder, NewsMakers Club
"We wanted a name that reflects achievement, expertise, leadership and visibility," said Davis. "NewsMakers Club says exactly that"
According to Davis, the organization is designed for people who create ideas, lead organizations, write books, launch products, influence public policy, share expertise and contribute to public dialogue.
"Whether you are a journalist, author, speaker, consultant, entrepreneur, nonprofit leader, podcaster or subject-matter expert, our goal is to help you become more visible, more credible and more connected," Davis said.
