I've done PR for a long time and understand the frustration some have around not securing press. Sometimes the fix is simple: #1 Have a professional headshot ready to send quickly and make sure the receiver can download it. It is fine to provide a link to a photo or photos centered around your pitch. Your aren't helping your chances by having people search for photos of you. #2 Have a short bio prepared and ready to go. No, you don't need to list every award or accolade. Keep it simple and focused on what you do and how you do it. #3 Ensure videos aren't grainy or distorted. This will save you time from having to go back and forth with sending videos. Also, send it via email whenever possible. #4 Make sure all your information is correct. Check the address, phone number, times, bus routes or whatever information is associated with your event. #pr #branding #media

Hands-on Creative Strategy My dad was a firefighter for 35 years. From him I learned that when the bell rings, no matter what you encounter, you need to be prepared to act. That means being able to diagnose the problem and get to the heart of it quickly. That’s how we approach our work. We believe most companies don’t want to pay for strategy alone or wait months for action. They want results and positive outcomes. Hands-on creative strategy is the process of aligning goals & expectations with strategic thinking and execution simultaneously.  That doesn’t mean fast and cheap. We’ll assess what you have in place, what’s missing and agree on what needs to be done. We’ll transparently determine the budget and timing, develop the approach and execute with seasoned professionals. And we’ll do it with a process of gratitude and appreciation for your personal stake in what happens. #Creative #Gratitude #ALS #FuckALS #agency #PR #Creativity #PublicRelations #Advertising #GraphicDesign #Events
