5 Common PR Mistakes

The thought of contacting a journalist and media agency can be scary, but it doesn’t have to be! We’ve been around the PR block and learnt a thing or two about what NOT to do when trying to gain media exposure for you and your business.

Here is your 5 COMMON PR MISTAKES TO AVOID download. Get a peak at what to avoid with DIY publicity.

Want to learn more?

If you want to learn more about how to be a self-sufficent PR gun, hurry and book now for our ‘PR Secrets for Beginners’ workshop which is running July 14th, Syd with young PR and publicity extraordinaire Jonica Bray.

As busy people it can be tricky to keep a finger on the pulse in all areas of your business or organisation. So knowing how to continually promote you and your organisation through media channels can be daunting…unless you have the know-how.

Effective PR is important to any organisation for a number of reasons. Mainly because it raises your profile to your audience, positions you as an expert in your field, helps to build your database and most importantly INCREASES SALES and exposure for what you do!

Book Now to come to our engaging and highly effective workshop so you learn the Tips from Jonica who has worked on the inside of media for many years.
And of course like all Frank Team programs it will not only be HIGHLY useful but also VERY fun too with networking galour!

Look forward to seeing you there.
