Looking for New Ways to Build and Maintain Relationships with Writers and Editors?
Sign up now for next week's "Become a Journalists's BFF" workshop
Happy Thursday, everyone.
With all the news of editorial layoffs lately, it’s more important than ever to build relationships with new writers and editors and solidify your relationships with the ones you are already connected to.
That’s why Nicole Pajer and I are hosting our super popular Become a Journalist’s BFF: Networking and Relationship Management workshop (it’s back by popular demand from several 2023 Top Tier Consulting sessions).
We’ve timed this to coincide with Valentine’s Day of course, as February is all about relationships … and we think that extends beyond our romantic partners!
Here are all the details:
What: Some publicists seem to have a transactional “wham-bam-thank-you-ma’am” approach to their work, but highly successful publicists know that building long-term relationships with journalists is truly the gift that keeps on giving. Learn how to meet new journalists, and discover best practices for staying in touch, following up, and creating meaningful relationships.
Format: 1-hour workshop via Zoom with Jill and Nicole includes:
45-minute formal presentation of our best relationship-building and management tips
Learn how to meet new journalists and develop a lucrative working relationship with them
Discover best practices for staying in touch
Learn the finer points of following up that will increase your response rate
Discover how to become a writer’s go-to source
Learn how to stand out when answering a writer’s call for sources (whether that’s on HARO, a FB group, Twitter, Substack etc.) — there is definitely an art to this and we will walk you through our magic formula!
Discover how to avoid common writer pet peeves that may make someone want to pass on working with you again.
Opportunity to network with and learn from your colleagues
15 minutes for Q&A: Anything and everything is on the table for discussion here and you will walk away with your questions answered (if we have to stay on a little longer, we’re happy to do so).
Date: Wednesday, February 7 at 10 am PST/1 pm EST
Pricing: $199 per person for Top Tier Paid Subscribers; $259 per person for Free Subscribers (prepayment is required to hold your slot)
(Note to free subscribers: The TTC annual subscription fee is only $99 — so, upgrading would save you $60 on this workshop, PLUS you’d get access to ALL our paid content — including our vast archive of content — and monthly Top Tier Talks for just $39 more for the year.)
