I have been interviewing PR practitioners from all over the world as part of my interview series called 20:20 Vision. The concept of these interviews is that I ask each practitioner 20 questions about themselves and they give us a brief glimpse into their working lives and what makes them tick.

As part of an effort to get smaller blogs to write about the film, I contacted blog owner, Jamie Bullock, of Project:Women and told her about the film. I suggested she post a story that we would write, to not only help the film – but to help her add valuable content to her blog about women going after their dreams.

In times past, the goal of a publicist was to get their clients featured in media like newspapers, magazines, radio, and television. PR in its traditional form refers to networking with journalists in a bid to get featured in print publications. With the advent of the internet age, there seem almost infinite avenues to promote a business.

Many blogs focus on media relations through the lens of news releases. I’ll skip the dictionary definition that often opens a blog post and put it bluntly. I’m not here to say stop writing news releases. I am here to say write fewer, better ones and spend more time leveraging your best kept secrets – your thought leaders.

As a toddler (4-ish), I wondered what was inside that thing on the wall where, if you plugged in a lamp, there was light, or if you plugged in a radio, there was sound… music… people talking. Then, in my early teens, I constructed a battery-powered transistor radio. So I did the logical (in my mind) thing. Very basic, but it worked!
