Meet the Press panel discussion 10 Nov 2022

Meet the Press

Nov 10, 2022

You’ve got a newsworthy story, but how, when and who should you pitch it to?

A PR campaign with timeframes, messaging and visuals tailored to your targeted media outlets is far more likely to generate the media coverage you desire, rather than a mass mailout of your media release.

Meet the Press is a two-hour networking event, which includes a 40 minute panel discussion with local print, TV News and radio journalists to provide valuable insight on how to pitch your story to the media.

You will gain a clearer understanding of:

  • Which media outlets you should be targeting
  • The lead times required for different media outlets
  • How to capture the journalist’s attention – fast!
