WEBINAR: The Power of PR
By Creative Plus Business
PR, short for public relations, can open you up to incredible opportunities. It's an often-overlooked mode of telling your story—but when done well, effective PR can persuade others to tell your story, expose your work to a broader audience, and contribute to a positive and magnetic brand reputation.
PR isn't marketing nor advertising—but it's the perfect complement to them, working synchronistically to highlight your offerings, expertise, and unique flair. Importantly, it helps foster trust with your target audience by adding a layer of credibility to your communications strategy. However, for many of us, PR seems like a form of strange media magic that is reserved for big business and corporations. We're busting this misconception (plus a bunch of others!) to help you DIY your PR and build your business.
Lillie Brown will be joined by PR extraordinaire Odette Barry of Odette & Co to explore the value of PR for small business, building a list of contacts, and how to craft a compelling pitch that will leave media hungry for more.
What’s Included?
A 60 min panel webinar with our creative industries experts, plus lifetime access to additional resources and/or a special Dropbox folder containing more resources to support your learning.
Who should sign up?
Creative industries professionals and business people from start-up to established (Australia only, sorry!). We also welcome creative freelancers, soloists, students, start-ups and curious hobbyists.
