How to Get PR in Australia: Publicity Expert Shares Tips with Small Businesses on How to Get into the Media

Historically, society has told business owners that they need to allocate thousands of dollars to an advertising budget in order to develop and grow their brand, increase sales and improve their customer or client base. Yet, what many of these small to medium businesses aren’t aware of is the potential influence from the power of media in communities, especially communities that are small or niche. www.freemediafortune.com
 
The benefits of publicity can be extraordinary for any business; news travels fast, and through the media, key messages can become stronger and marketing opportunities louder and greater by using a credible vehicle of communication.
 
Public relations veteran, Kate Engler shows hundreds of small businesses how to get PR in Australia every year, to reap the benefits of free publicity that the larger companies enjoy. “Public relations agencies continue to pedal the myth that writing a media release is really difficult, and only corporate companies with a PR and marketing department – who have great relationships with several journalists – are important enough to appear in the news,” says Kate. “But that’s simply not true! With the right tools and media knowledge, getting media coverage for small business has never been easier.” www.freemediafortune.com
 
Kate Engler is passionate about showing small businesses how to get into the media. Her passion takes her around the country revealing media insider secrets with small businesses to empower them.
 
“Knowing how to get PR in Australia doesn’t need to come from a lengthy media contact list. If you have a great angle and a solid story, it will trump a media contact every time, because that contact has someone they still need to answer to so the story needs to be a fit for the publication or outlet,” says Kate. “Two of the most common doubts I hear from entrepreneurs about publicity is, they don’t think they have a story, and they don’t think their voice is important enough. But small businesses are the heart throb of any community; they can see trends and feel energy shifts long before a disconnected corporation.”
 
Kate teaches savvy small to medium businesses how to get PR in Australia through a one day workshop – Free Media Fortune – which she holds in different locations all over the country. For more information on how to get free publicity, visit www.freemediafortune.com.
