You don't need a big budget, a PR firm, or a Shark Tank appearance to earn real media coverage. What you need is a strategy, and the right story. In this episode of Strategy Talks, host Dorien Morin-van Dam and guest Mickie Kennedy dig into why 97% of press releases never generate a single piece of earned media, what the 3% that do have in common, and how small businesses can use tools like industry surveys, customer story arcs, and strategic press releases to build real credibility and visibility, without spending a fortune. You'll walk away with concrete ideas you can actually use, and a whole new perspective on how newsworthy your small business already is. → Join the NEW Strategy Talks community Mickie Kennedy founded eReleases 28 years ago to help small businesses, authors, and startups increase their visibility and credibility through press release distribution.
