PR for small business: How to get your brand in the media

The Noosa Small Business Series is excited to announce our next workshop:

PR for small business: How to get your brand in the media

Want to see your business in print, online or on TV … for all the right reasons?

Good PR can be a game-changer for small businesses. It builds your credibility, expands your reach and can even lead to sales, without spending big on ads. But how do you actually get media coverage?

In this practical workshop, you’ll learn how to craft a compelling story, connect with journalists, and put your brand in front of the media – even if you don’t have any contacts (yet). You’ll leave with clear, actionable steps you can take straight away to boost your chances of getting noticed.

Men and women welcome.

You will learn

• What makes a story newsworthy (and how to find stories in your own life)
• The biggest mistakes small businesses make when trying to get coverage
• How to write a media pitch that actually gets opened
• Tips for nailing a media interview
• How PR can lead to more visibility, more traffic and even more sales
