Have you landed podcast interviews, guest blogs, etc. and then felt like they did nothing for your business?

Garnering publicity for publicity’s sake isn’t how you grow your business.

It’s about SO much more than simply landing the opportunities and then sharing each one on social media or adding a logo to your website!

Follow these steps to leverage PR

Here are 3 important steps to ensure you’re landing the right publicity and positioning yourself to leverage PR so you can grow your business:

You don’t need to be on the biggest, most well known platforms out there – niche sites and podcasts can be much more successful when it comes to generating leads for your business.
