Welcome to School Leader Soundbites, a podcast dedicated to empowering K-12 leaders with the latest insights and strategies in marketing and communications! Today, we are discussing What Makes A Great Back To School Media Pitch. Getting ready for back to school is the perfect time to invite the media in, and having your school media pitch ready is appreciated.
Interview preparation
-When we think about the first day of school, people don’t always think about what it takes to get ready to go, invite the media in to see the process and drop in data points of how many schools that staff supports.
Interviewees ready to go
-Have names ready to go and permission in place of people you want media to talk to
-Invite media for convocation or new teacher training
-Share about new teachers that have come from within your school system
Visuals and Data
-Visuals and data make the reporter’s story more robust
Emotion
-Celebrate your long term staff, school bus drivers and crossing guards and share their stories
The first few days of school are hectic but if you can manage to sprinkle in some positive media, it is a great thing to do.
