So now, we’re adding another tier of consistent mediasupport. It’s called:
The Expert’s
Publicist Program.
WHAT IT DOES FOR YOU:
Studies show that if your brand message is consistently delivered across print, web, and other modes of communication, your marketing results will exponentially increase.
Everyone likes to see their name in the news, especially when referred to as an expert and quoted. Equally important, the media needs to quote experts. In fact, every day
journalists search the globe for experts on specific topics to add content and credibility to their articles.
But, journalists are busy, harried folk, working impossible deadlines to get us the news. Cold pitching your publicity interests to an over-booked writer on a tight deadline is like throwing gold nuggets into the Grand Canyon, aching for dreams to come true.
If, instead, you tap into what reporters need, when they need it, you’ll hit platinum with a whole lot less angst.
Here’s what brandUNITY’s Expert’s Publicist Program does for you:
• helps the media find you and quote you
• builds awareness about your expertise
• increases perceived value of your business
• decreases price sensitivity about your offerings
