Hey you wild women!

Why do public relations agencies require retainer-based clients to sign a six-month or one-year contract? Working with a PR agency isn't as simple as throwing together a pitch and throwing it out there. There are nuances to consider, and there's so much more to the story than you might think.

In this episode you'll learn why it's important for clients to work with a PR agency over a greater stretch of time. Great PR agencies need time to get to know the business, customize the approach, personalize the pitches, and more.
