| | WED 7 JUN: Masterclass: Engaging with Journalists REGISTER NOW (FREE VIRTUAL EVENT) Building an audience is fundamental to business success. Why? Your audience gives you feedback on your products and services, is your biggest source of advocacy and most importantly, are your customers, One of the most effective but least understood routes to building an audience is through the media. Journalists are the gatekeepers – they decide who is useful and how they should be used. Working with journalists is no different to selling to customers, or to raising investment – it’s all about relationships. This masterclass will help you to: - Gain a greater understanding of the media
- Learn how to engage with journalists
- Help you build an effective press release
