PR Strategies for Events

How do you get your event noticed? With a savvy media relations strategy!

Join us in the White Dove Room for a special panel with experts from the PRSA of Southern Arizona. In this session you will learn how to attract media attention for your next event—whether you're new to working with the media or adding to your toolkit.

Our experienced panelists will share best practices, tips and trends for working with various media outlets—from traditional outlets like TV and radio, to bloggers and social media influencers. Learn the advantages (and disadvantages) of earned media and tips for writing a press release that gets results.

After the presentation we'll open the floor for Q&A with the panelists, so come with your questions and gain essential knowledge in a supportive atmosphere.
