It probably comes as no surprise that we believe thought-leadership marketing is what we like to call "Modern PR." But that doesn't mean you shouldn't be focused on traditional PR, which involves gaining coverage by reporters for stories they're writing. In this episode, we speak to PR expert Helen Croydon, founder of Thought Leadership PR, about ways lawyers can pitch the media successfully. Jay and Tom speak to Helen about:
The importance of researching the reporter, editor, and/or publication you're pitching
How to craft a pitch
Why it's better to pitch one idea than a multitude of them
How to write thought-leadership content if you want it to appeal to a publication
And much more
