STARTUP MASTERCLASS - Inside the mind of the media: Getting your business in the headlines
What makes a headline-worthy business story? What do journalists look for and how can you make your news stand head and shoulders above the rest?

Top journalists receive hundreds or even thousands of pitches every day. This Masterclass will be hosted by an ex-national newspaper journalist and a Top 10 PR agency pro who know what journalists want and how to cut through.

Join the Masterclass to:

• Understand the key differences between PR and marketing and how earned media coverage can make a tangible impact on your business goals
• Get insights into the mind of a journalist and the pressures and priorities of the modern newsroom
• Learn how to identify the best stories in your organisation that will cut through the noise - and how to match the right story to the right journalist
  

Participants should come armed with:

• The burning PR questions you’ve always wanted to ask
• Examples of previous PR activity you’ve done or have been involved in (there will be opportunities for open discussion)
• Stories about your business that you think are newsworthy and want to amplify in the media that will cut through the noise - and how to match the right story to the right journalist
  

Run by Harpswood, Climate Connection's trusted partner for Public Relations.

PLEASE NOTE: Spots are limited for office hours and the Masterclass and are available by application only. You'll automatically receive an invitation to apply if you're a startup.
