Join Andrew Lees and guest Tracy Lamourie as they talk about why businesses should utilize media relations, the line between editorial and advertorial, and the problem with how people see who should and shouldn't be media covered.

Show Notes

Of course, anyone can be an expert in their own field. But because the media is doing a million other things, they couldn't share that until you tell them so. For Tracy, it's all about how you frame your story as good content when it comes to increasing exposure with PR and media.

In this episode you will learn:

  • Tracy's story on how she got into PR
  • Is it reasonable to scale a new business, with no traction, through PR?
  • Why are business stories hard to place?
  • The problem with how people see who should and shouldn't be covered in media
  • Tracy: On adding the zero.
  • …and so much more!
