Do your own PR

Recently I had Tessa Harris, Editor of Berkshire Life as a speaker at my SHEplc event. Tessa adviced everyone in business to get into the habit of writing their own press releases and keep sending them to all the local papers and magazines. They may not all get published but media will call upon reliable people and those who always have something to say. Check out how well you are doing by putting your name into Google and see how many spaces you take up on the first page.
Do not underestimate the power of the pen – it is still strong stuff and can be free of charge. You can sent your CV to Berks Life, they are always looking for new information. Check out the advice from Tessa on their website: www.berkshire-life.co.uk and get into the habit of writing down what you do and sharing it with the business community. If you are not in print – it is your own fault, so do something about it.
