One of the hardest parts about running your own PR campaign is the pitching of the media (aka, emailing a reporter or editor with the reason you want them to cover your business). After you email them - what then? When and how do you follow-up? Whether you're getting crickets (aka no response) or getting responses that you're unsure about answering, knowing how and when to act can mean the difference between a "GO" for a press story or a pass.
