Here is a good author publicity story for you.
One day, an expert (perhaps just like you) signed up with our PR firm. Through our author PR media campaign, Brian was a featured expert in the Wall Street Journal. The placement also included a photo. This spread was life-changing for Brian as it doesn’t get any better than this. Brian got lots of exposure, new clients, a major media bio addition, added clout, influence and brand empowerment.
Brian worked with us for a while building up his media bio significantly.
As you know we do not charge the traditional monthly retainers so time passing is not equated to money draining from your pocket month after month. Here at our firm, you pay for secured media events of course, but you do not pay simply for time passing.
No monthly retainer PR means that you can play the publicity game for as long as you want. You can cap your monthly fees.
With a ‘no retainer, performance-based publicity’ model, there is no cost for time simply passing you by month by month. Our PR firm keeps working for you consistency over time building strength and momentum around your brand making you stronger and more bookable every single day. You are not paying for these publicity efforts and benefits. they are happening behind the scenes.
Remember, you pay only for secured media placements here at Annie Jennings PR.
So Brian was able to work with us for period of time before he earned the attention of one of the biggest media journalists in the business. And then one day, he was in the path of this journalist and a high-powered, major media opportunity. The Wall Street Journal article.
I want to emphasize “earn”. Brian earned this placement. Brian did the work. He put in the time. And best of all, Brian was appreciative of all of our work on his behalf. We truly loved that about him. Brian was an excellent client. Inportantly, this in turn, encouraged us to keep pitching him so that we could be in the right place at the right time for him.
Getting media publicity is simply what we do.
Our PR firm has a strong and provable history of success in booking experts in influential media that includes TV, radio talk shows, online media and print media.
Brian was able to secure this media placement based on a couple of factors. Not only is he a great client, easy to work and respectful of the process, he is a true gentleman. And he got lucky. He chose Annie Jennings PR. So we would up working  with one of the best publicists in the industry. Our publicists’ have a key eye, meaningful connections to the media and a savvy, experienced, media friendly pitching style. All of which Brian was the recipient of and much to his benefit.
Brian’s Wall Street Journal feature story in the print edition (that included his photo) is life-changing for him. A media place that prestigious brought him tremendous value to his brand, his reputation and his business. But again, he was working with the right PR firm that knew how to get the job done for him and he earned his spot through his ongoing work with us.
