Let's Talk About: Hidden Costs of Press Trips that May Mean Writers Can't Afford to Attend (Part 3 of 5)
Plus: I'm offering 25% off annual subscriptions for the month of May!
Good morning!
You may remember that last month, I held a press trip-focused AMA session co-hosted with my work wives and travel writer colleagues Alice Dubin and Aly Walansky.
That session was SO jam-packed with content that we’re still continuing to roll out the highlights. Today, we’re going to be sharing some content from the section of our webinar that covered the hidden costs of press trips.
(BTW: This topic is such a hot-button one that it was actually the impetus for the entire session - so you absolutely won’t want to miss this one if you are planning on hosting a press trip any time soon.)
We firmly believe that the ROI you get out of a press trip is directly proportional to the thought and care you put into your press trip planning and execution — and that’s why we’re sharing all this insider info!
And as we said in previous emails and sessions, we’re all very much aware that press trips definitely aren’t a free vacation. (Truth be told, we often lose money by attending.) But often we receive invites that seem to suggest what the hosts consider to be a “free vacation” - it’s not a vacation, it’s work. But it’s also not free.
Oh shoot, you’ve hit the paywall? These industry insights are a perk for paid subscribers. Upgrade now to get all the insider info, plus you’ll get access full access to my archives of paid content and upcoming Ask Me Anything sessions.
