Why consistency matters when pitching the media

Why consistency matters when pitching the media

If you’re brand new to pitching yourself to the media it can be hard to develop the habit of being consistent with your pitching, right? 

Doing anything new and unfamiliar can feel like a struggle. 

Trying a new workout routine, eating healthier, regularly writing blog posts, drinking more water, routinely recording new podcast episodes…all of those things can feel hard to do when you’re starting a new habit if you aren’t used to it.

But I will share this: when it comes to basically anything in life, if you’re wanting to form a new habit and get into a routine of regularly doing something, you have to be consistent to move forward.

Tune in to find out why consistency matters when it comes to pitching the media.
