How to hire a publicist for your products

You will get a better response to your product messaging when someone else says nice things about you than when you say nice things about yourself. That’s just one big benefit of media coverage. How do you get started? Hire a publicist. Product media coverage is more attainable and cost effective than you may think. You could say we operate like a dating service: We match companies with reporters. And the best part is with our Pay Per Interview® pricing model, we charge per story we arrange, not by the hours we work. That means you always get coverage for your money.

We have put more than 1,000 clients in touch with reporters who were eager to talk with them. If you have the right product or service, news stories can create a brand quicker and cheaper than any other promotional method. Get enough news stories, and your product may achieve a celebrity status that has a monumental impact on sales.

News stories offer the opportunity to talk about your product while your audience is at ease. When folks are reading a magazine, perusing the internet or watching TV, you have their attention. It’s much different than when you advertise. People have become so jaded towards ads that many disregard them. Running an ad is like stepping up to the plate with three strikes against you: You never have a chance.

When your product becomes the content, people are interested in what you have to say. Give us the chance to become the publicists for your product or service. Most business-related news stories are no accident. They happen because people like you hire publicists like us for their products.

Do your products have a publicist? They deserve one. If you have a product or service you would like to see in the news, complete our online form or call us at 952-697-5269

Heather is a multi-faceted leader. She’s part marketing strategist, part consumer psychologist and part motivational cheerleader. “I love understanding what drives people to take action, especially when it involves getting the media to run stories about our clients,” she says. With more than 25 years of experience, she has the keen understanding and insight to know how to run an integrated campaign and what it takes for our clients’ stories to become the news. She enjoys leading campaigns for complex industries such as medical devices and technologies, as well as fun industries such as hair salons. She thrives on pursuing creative ways to educate consumers about clients’ products, and ultimately inspiring them to buy. “I appreciate becoming a part of each client’s marketing team. I cherish the long-lasting relationships, and successful marketing programs we have created together.” Heather also finds joy in her daily collaborations as part of our creative team. “I am grateful to work with publicists, writers, designers and other marketing experts, all enjoying what they do because they are using their God-given strengths. Our publicists have great instincts because they all have media backgrounds. When things get hectic, it’s often Heather who cracks the first joke. “We encourage people to be a little goofy and unique. Some of the best ideas and solutions emerge because we know how to have fun,” she grins. “I may say something like, “Remember this is PR not the ER. Now, lighten up and go book a great story idea with the media!”
