Media Coverage

In this article

    B2B companies often believe they only need publicity in their industry trades. While taking such a highly targeted approach to your media outreach makes sense, remember that top decision makers rarely limit their media consumption to the trades. Many also are avid consumers of business media because they want to become familiar with other top influencers and learn from their successes.

    Sharing your story in local business media is a smart way to broaden your reach and possibly uncover even more interest in your product. Media stories build your credibility. Other movers and shakers learn to trust you and to see you as a business leader in the community.

    This Finance & Commerce podcast gave Hilmerson Safety President and CEO Deb Hilmerson more than 20 minutes to share her story with 10,000-plus listeners. She described her interesting career path and what motivates her to design products that solve some of the construction industry’s most serious safety concerns.
