Before you start launching any public relations campaigns there are a few details that need to be ironed out first. Without an established brand, public relations will do you little good.
Here are some popular questions about establishing your brand with quality public relations campaigns:
How do you build a personal brand for yourself when you’re not yet an expert in your field or industry?
How long should it take before you see your first press feature?
When does publishing a book make the most sense?
KEY TAKEAWAYS COVERED IN THE PODCAST
● The Public Relations industry is largely broken
● Publishing a book will not make you wealthy
● Your content is the building material of your brand
● It’s normal to feel overwhelmed by options
As always, I’d love to know what lightbulb moments you take away with you and what you think, so please feel free to connect with me on my social media!
THE ONE THING YOU NEED TO REMEMBER ABOVE ALL ELSE:
Make your mistakes early on before you gain a huge audience. Knowing where to start is far more important than seeing rapid results. If you know where to focus (on quality, not quantity) you set yourself up to be aligned with micro-influencers and values that legitimately lead to sustained growth and an engaged audience.
What steps can you take today that will set up your business for effective PR in the future? What is the most important and what do you think is distracting you?
