5 PR Strategies For Summits
-
HARO
-
Do your research and find their editorial calendars to see what they are covering
-
Following reporters and outlets in your industry of interest and seeing what they're talking about and then having a conversation with them
-
Keep track of the 10 questions you're asked in one week that you see yourself always being asked, that's what you should be pitching to people
-
Have a media list
Building A Media List
-
Mine your audience and do research about what they're reading, writing and listening to because those are the people you want more of
-
Creep on every single press page, every single website and do a Google search of your competitors to see where they've popped up
-
Do a Google search on your expertise/niche
Utilizing The Media List
✔️ Find the right context
✔️ Make sure you have their email address
✔️ Make sure that you can describe in one sentence who you are and what your summit or your podcast or whatever you're pitching is about
✔️ Introduce yourself
✔️ Do NOT blind pitch
KJ's Parting Piece Of Wisdom
“They need to be working as their own publicist because there's no one else that's going to do it for them. They have to be out there promoting and putting themselves in front of others because it's the best way to extend their reach and the breadth and so best way to help additional people, but also to get the best summit speakers and guests.”

I want to end this episode by saying,
"I believe in YOU & YOU can do this."
Summits are by far one of the most powerful ways to quickly grow your list, launch your platform & make more money! (Even if you are just getting started).
Don’t get caught up in Analysis paralysis, because the world needs to hear your message & there are people who are waiting for you to help them.
So just get started. Imperfect action is always better than doing nothing!
