Why make the news?

As a knowledge entrepreneur, author or expert, day in and day out you're busy with your business. Your clients, marketing, staff, administration... everything & everyone demands your attention. And meanwhile you see that other expert, or competitor, well-spoken on a high-profile radio programme and shining in a national newspaper.

And what are you doing to grow your brand awareness? A few posts on social media will get you a long way. And you know that isn't enough. Because nothing is as powerful as free publicity; getting free publications in (professional) magazines, on the radio or TV. Nothing is as powerful as an expert status.

In my latest e-book "Can I make the news with my business?", I explain to you through some basic principles what your story needs to meet to attract the attention of journalists.

Here's how I can help:

Linda advised me to deepen the personal story in my marketing because I sometimes came across as a bit 'slick'. I was almost offended: I'm supposed to be good at that shit! As a copywriter, I focus on storytelling, and I help my clients inject entertainment to resuscitate their half-dead marketing. Curious, I booked a VIP day: spending a whole day talking about myself to someone who listens extremely well.

New assignments and growth in brand awareness

Linda helped us to make the news with an opinion piece 'Let the human touch lead in discussions about robots', in a renowned national newspaper. That same day I appeared on BNR news radio on the same topic; putting humans at the centre of technological developments. The reactions were overwhelming... It brought us new assignments and a huge growth in our brand awareness. Do you understand that we recommend her to everyone?
