PR and visibility strategies for introverts

Today’s episode is all about PR strategies for introverts.

Before we dive into today’s topic, I wanted to share about a brand new service I have called the Pitch Power Hour. This is where you and me can chat for 1 hour all about your PR strategy for a specific program or product you’d like to get in front of more people.

Whether you’re wanting to start pitching yourself for podcast interviews to help you grow your email list or have a course launch coming up, I’d love to help you strategize the best pitching options for you! You also receive 1 custom pitch template. Head to link listed below to sign up for a spot!

NOW….onto today’s episode…PR strategies for introverts!

I, too, am an introvert so please know that these tips are coming from someone who knows how you feel.

An introvert may feel uncomfortable at large networking events, feel totally drained after being at a party with a lot of people, you may not enjoy being put on the spot (your mind goes blank)…overall you prefer less social interaction and recharge your batteries by being alone.

You may be thinking that pitching yourself for media opportunities is only for extroverts. People that thrive on being surrounded by a lot of people, being the life of the party, but I’d beg to differ…introverts, especially during these times right now, can thrive off of being visible in ways that aren’t anxiety-inducing.
