You’ve seen the expert guests on television, in publications and online. And you’re thinking to yourself, How did they get that nice exposure? Well, it wasn’t magic and these folks weren’t “discovered.” Rather, they took specific steps to get the attention of media outlets that could help spread their message to relevant markets.
We’re so lucky to have PR & media superstar Jill Salzman, speaker, author and founder of FoundingMoms.com as guest host for our March 2013 Sobcon chat on Thursday, March, 21. We’ll be discussing these questions about working with the media:
- What are first steps to developing a PR plan for your business?
- What’s the best way to approach the media?
- Tips for working with bloggers?
- Any “don’ts” when dealing with the media?
- Should you have a press kit? If yes, what should it include?
