Brewing Up Creativity

In Episode 21 of Brewing Up Creativity, Danielle is joined with Gloria Chou.  In this week's episode, Danielle & Gloria discuss how early stage founders get press without spending any money, when the best days and times are to pitch, the do’s and don’ts of pitching, her advice to those just starting to get familiar with PR, elevating your elevator pitch,  the platforms that allow you to track your emails, and engaging in platforms like LinkedIn.

About Gloria:
Gloria Chou is a PR mentor and pitch guru who teaches early-stage founders how to "hack their own PR" with her proprietary 3-step CPR Pitching Method™, one that’s helped thousands of bootstrapped small businesses get over a combined 1 Billion organic views in top tier outlets such as the New York Times, Vogue, Fast Company, Forbes and more. As a former U.S. Diplomat that’s never worked in PR or had any industry contacts, Gloria’s mission is to make PR more accessible so all founders can learn how to get traction and build credibility without hiring an agency to do it for them.
