PR for small business event
I recently attended another Tameside Business Family event. This time it was about ‘Maximising your PR opportunities’. It was delivered by Mike Dinsdale (marketing Director of the Tame Valley Partnership and Communications Director or Brother UK.
I think the main thing that I got from it was that I could get interest in Whistle Ink or at least get Whistle Ink mentioned for free. Mike gave examples of how much it would to place adverts in papers etc but whereas it you had something interesting to say about your small business - you could get coverage / space for free.
Am I going to do it? As always it’s great getting these tips for free - but they need to be acted upon too.
He’s even helped us by giving us a template to write a press release!
I think I just need to find an interesting angle - that might be worth reading about.
