Reading Mountain

Susan Spelic is a school teacher who has created a new range of books for children who are reluctant readers. During the PR Accelerator she prepared a number of different media-friendly angles for her publicity campaign. She also brainstormed some story ideas with the PR professionals at the event and approached TV news producers on the second day of the course, with the contacts provided by the HYOPR platform. She was invited to go on the Channel 9 news the day after the Accelerator finished. What a result!

The coaching hours can be as flexible as you like, obviously depending on our schedules. We can either work through the campaign preparation very quickly (it could be done in 1-2 weeks) or more slowly over 3-4 weeks. Just let Jules know the pace you are comfortable with.

During this time, she will help you:

• work out the right newsworthy angle/s for your PR goals
• consider what, if any supporting material you should have (research, client comments etc)
• teach you how to use the PR platform and give you free access for the duration of the coaching + 1 month
• write your media release with advice along the way and tweaking where necessary
• put your media pitch together, including the accompanying email or what to say if you call
• help you build your media contact lists
• be on hand as you start to send out the emails
• work out alternative angles if the first one doesn’t work (it happens!)
• work out a 3-6 month plan for your ongoing PR campaigns

Melbourne Headache Centre

Roger O’Toole from the Melbourne Headache Centre is a physio who treats patients with an amazing technique to eliminate migraine. He had some one-on-one coaching with Jules to understand the process and his newsworthy angles. After writing his media release, he pitched it to the Herald Sun.

The journalist loved the story and it ran in the first few pages of the paper along with a big photo. Then things started to take off! 3AW called and he did an interview for them, and then an interview for each of the nightly news programmes during the course of the day.

From that point on, he got about 1 inquiry per minute for the next two hours on his website and the inquiries kept coming by phone and online for the next few days. By the end of the second day, Roger had received 7 months’ worth of bookings. The publicity he got from just one media release took his business to a whole new level!

If you want to learn the basics of PR and then implement what you have learned, at your own speed, then this option could be perfect for you! It includes:

• 6 part video series (recorded at our popular online boot camp – each episode is 35-55 minutes long)
• eWorkbook – designed to take you through the process but with examples aFFnd space for you to start to put together your campaign
