This is the first book I’ve read twice.
The first time I listened to it.
This last time, I read it with a highlighter.
Today, I will let you know what I highlighted and why in part one of this series.
I’m doing this selfishly because I think this is a great way for me to retain what I read.
I’ve read so many great non-fiction books, but when I try to remember what I learned, I’m blank.
So here’s hoping reading it...

When I published my book, Become a Media Maven, my friend and past podcast guest Jessica Terzakis invited me to co-host a LinkedIn Live event with her.
She asked me a bunch of questions about the most overlooked and free way to find more clients.
Unfortunately, LinkedIn Live audio events don’t automatically save on the platform, so I recorded it and am playing it here on my podcast for you to listen to.
Today, we’re walking and talking about my book launch. I’ll tell you about how I came up with the idea to write this book, why the focus changed, when it was hard for me to sit down and write the book, and every little thing I did to market the book when it went live.
If you’ve thought of writing a book to traditionally publish or self-publish, this podcast episode will give you a lot of value.
Thanks for rolling with all the n...

So many people want to know how to do their own public relations… when they’re ready.
It’s shocking how many excuses I hear from people on why they’re not ready.
Not big enough. Not well known yet. Not making enough money. Don’t have a team. Still have a full-time job.
The beauty is, PR is what makes you all of these things.
Here’s how.
1. Not big enough? Low on money. Need sales, need leads… need attention. Tha...

I consider a flywheel a system. It’s an order of doing things that once started, should keep going. One thing leads to the next.
You can have a sales flywheel, a marketing flywheel, an operations flywheel, and more.
I decided to create a content flywheel on paper.
It was always in my head, but making a design in Canva to actually see makes a big difference for me when it comes to execution.
Why content?

Before I tell you how one media placement led to 1,600 customers for a business, I want to remind you that public relations is not sales. It’s marketing. The sales come afterward.
I don’t like it when people rely on media placements to get sales. Can it happen and does it happen often? Yes. But it’s not sales. It’s marketing… and sales are a side effect of getting attention in the media.
This issue has been plaguing the media and public relations industries for years. It’s paying for editorial placements, also known as paying for placement PR.
Any professional will tell you this is wrong and unethical. But the people who want you to hire them will tell you it’s safe and a way to make sure you don’t waste your money. When they say that, they’re just trying to get your money with little regard for their reputation or...

This is an episode with show notes from the Duct Tape Marketing Podcast.
Back in the day, you know ten years ago, I built some form of media relations into every marketing plan. As digital channels have taken more and more attention, it’s easy to push traditional media coverage aside, but do so at your own risk.
