One-article package, valued at $3,000, which includes:

Articles Placement: This service includes getting an article, written by you, published in trade, industry, and business association magazines as well as their online sources. The article will be published and posted by multiple magazines. The article will be pitched, tracked, and followed-up upon during an eight-week cycle.

PR/PR will work in the pursuit of publicity opportunities for you, which will include:

  • Following a review of your website, blog and other collateral, a brainstorming session is held with the entire PR/PR team to lay-out your article topic.
  • Formatting and editing assistance is offered as you draft the article.
  • We will hone your marketing message and create an up-to-date resource box, to be included at the end of the article. The resource box is a brief bio that contains your background information, such as credentials, books, company, contact information, and a call to action.
  • Once the article is finalized, individual contact is made with each magazine (via phone or e-mail) to pitch the article topic. When the editor requests the article, we will send them the full text, author’s resource box and author photo (if requested).
  • We will follow up with any article requests we receive and consistently update you with information on publish dates, copies, website links and tear sheets. Any copies we receive from the magazine will be forwarded on to you. On rare occasions, the publication will send copies directly to you.
  • Ongoing coaching will be offered on how to best market yourself to the associations corresponding to the placements you are receiving at the national, regional and local level, as well as to related associations.
  • A monthly PR activity report will be e-mailed and/or sent to you. It details the public relations activity for your account, including any pitches, article placements and publish dates for the previous month.

And to add icing to the cake: Russell will give you a ride in his Mine is a 1972 Coupe deVille, vintage Cadillac if you stop by to visit him in Orlando.
