Why would anyone want publicity?
Monday, December 28th, 2009
Regardless of what kind of business you are in, you should want, and strive for, as much publicity for your business and your products or services, as possible. After all, it’s “free advertising” that is essential to the growth of your business and with things tight right now, the more you can get for free the better off your bottom line will be, right? It’s important that your publicity efforts should be well thought out, and pre-planned for maximum results.
An effective way to plan your media attention is to have a PR calendar made up for the coming year. The first thing is locate all the holidays you can use as a hook for a story. Don’t forget all those non legal ones that happen everyday.
Here’s a sample website for such events, http://www.sldirectory.com/cal.html
Get a pad of paper and a pen and start brain storming, how your business or service can fit into these daily events.
