Learn how to get some ink on your brand—in all the right ways.

Magazines, blogs, TV spots, and podcasts: you know your creative small business is good enough to deserve some media coverage ... but uh, how do you make that happen? 

How do you write pitches that turn heads ... and when should you send them?

After working as a publicist both in a full-service communications firm and then for a chef and his 11 restaurants, I pitched and secured media coverage for brands I represented in publications from USA TODAY to Bon Appetit, local magazines and TV stations down the street.

Not only that, but as a journalism major, I've freelanced for outlets like Southern Living, Style Me Pretty, and about.com—so on the writer's side, I learned what info I needed from brands and businesses I wanted to cover.
