Five Public Relations Tips for Small Businesses

You’re a small business that might not have the resources for a full-blown PR team. That shouldn’t stop you from accomplishing the things you need to build your brand. So here are five tips from Atlanta marketing consultant, Jenni Hilton:
Number one: Get local with search. Hilton says to make sure your company is listed in google and yahoo local directories. She says they’re free and you can even link to your website.
Number two: Get local in business/service directories. Hilton says with directories like Angie’s List and Citysearch popping up, to make sure your business is listed in the relevant local directories. And make sure you remind customers to write a recommendation for your company as well. Number three: Build a local media list at smaller newspapers and start a relationship. Hilton says local media is easier to reach and if you’re doing special things with the community, be sure they know about it by taking a reporter to lunch. For something like a charity event, she suggests sending a media advisory. Number four: Start a blog on WordPress and talk about your industry, not just the company. Hilton suggests giving tips, advice, general and observations. Number five: Sign up for help-a-reporter.com’s newsletter and get PR queries from journalists looking for sources. Include contact info in your email and links if needed. For more on this visit: https://www.Jennihilton.Com/small-business-marketing-blog
