Happy Hour Hustle

As a PR professional, your days are filled with research, media lists, interview coordination, segment rundowns, media kits, pitches, press releases, follow-up, emails, client calls and more. What we often put last is ongoing education and learning. It needs to be a top priority, and these kickass PR newsletters are a great place to start.

Listen up. Cold emailing, LinkedIn connecting or calling is NEVER going to work in your favor, and it is time you learned a few things about building a network.
