Public Relations

Public Relations is a job all entrepreneurs need to master.  The most important components of a public relations campaign are:

Audience Targeting — Know who you are trying to reach so you can speak to them in a language they understand.

Messaging — Messaging that is built to satisfy your audience’s needs and solve its problems.

Key Word and Trend research — Understand what people are searching for by using tools like Ubersuggest.com or Google Trends.

Location, location, location — Find your audience where they are most likely to need you by determining the best media targets and platforms to use.

Pitching — Creating specific media lists that identify who or what outlets are covering the types of stories you are telling.

As a public relations agency we are applying these best practices every day.  Our clients can expect that we will manage their social media and digital public relations efforts as well as their media relations with national and regional television, radio, print, online news sites, podcasts, and influencers.
