As a go-to person for people who need PR advice or help, I often hear ridiculous reasons not to do your own PR. Of course, PR company’s don’t wanna lose their jobs so they’ll tell you it’s impossible to do it yourself let alone for free, but let me tell you: it’s not impossible and it can be done for free. Public Relations and especially free publicity can be done for free and without professional PR experience! Head over to my Ultimate Guide To PR & Free Publicity here to get started. But before you do, make sure you read these myths to make sure you’re not falling in the trap.
Hey you, blogger or creative entrepreneur, is your business ready for the next level? My new free email course is here!One of the things I want the most with N/M is inspiring others and helping them reclaim their freedom. Because freedom gives you time to do what you really love. For me, that’s traveling, watching movies and working on my blog/biz instead of working for a large company. What is it for you? I’m really curious because freedom is probably one of the reasons why you’ve started a blog or business right?
For me it was THE reason to work for myself and towards my dreams! A huge game changer for the growth of my business was pitching right instead of pitching a lot. Yes, sure, you can pitch to ever possible company but it’s more effective with the right email to the right company. And believe me, I have a lot of excel sheets of years full pitching, with a lot of the names marked with red, as in never answered or not interested. At least I kept a record, right? I did something right, but waaay before I got into PR I didn’t have a clue about pitching.
That’s why I created this free email course because now I know. To help you pitch right and get that job, assignment or press mentions like you deserve!
