[PR] TuneUp: What To Pitch The Media This Month July 2020

What To Pitch The Media This Month: July

OMG - you GUYS! It's time to start pitching Holiday Gift Guides that print in November or December.

It's true. The presses are still printing. Magazines are still getting produced in the pandemic. People may be working from offices, or remotely from homes. Creativity and problem solving is rising above the panic, and we are moving forward.

Tune in to this planning TuneUp to get ideas for what you can pitch during July. This doesn't mean it's going to print in July. This means that people in print magazines are planning for November/December and need to hear from you now.

In this TuneUp, we got ideas for:

  • Magazines (Long Lead)
  • Regional Magazines (Medium Lead)
  • Social Media (Immediate Lead)
  • TV (Short Lead)

HOW TO WATCH

Anyone can watch a Tin Shingle TuneUp from their computer, mobile phone or tablet. The process is different for premium members and the public.

[PR] TuneUp: What To Pitch The Media In May 2020

How in the heck are magazines working to produce print magazines while remote working and unable to congregate for a photo shoot? Things are getting creative, quality is adjusting to the new normal of gritty, real-life, and print media is being produced. With a lot of digital.

This TuneUp focused on the future, but it will change this time to focus on right in May 2020 - how you are following up with any reach-outs you have made to the media, the types of ideas you are having, etc.

Topics Covered:

  • The state of the media right now - as COVID coverage is unrelenting, all anyone can think about, but nothing anyone wants to think about at the same time.
  • Types of story angles you could be pitching right now.
  • What does it mean to "pitch a story." Isn't that just for PR people and journalists? Guess what - it's for you too, Business Owner!
