50: How to get noticed in your business - PR for creative entrepreneurs with Meghan Ely

Welcome to the Build that Business podcast, episode number 50. Let me ask you, when you hear the word “PR” - what comes to mind? Is it something you’re implementing in your wedding business or do you brush it off and jot it down on the to-do list for “someday when I have more time?” I’ll admit, I was the latter for far too long but once I realized the power of PR, it opened so many new doors for my business and that’s why I’m excited to introduce you to our guest today.

In this episode, I’m sitting down with Meghan Ely of OFD Consulting and we are talking about all things PR - how to get press for your business. How to get visible to the people you want to serve, how to get people talking about you, and how to gain social proof. This episode is packed with tangible things that you can do to get noticed.

We talked about
- Where to start with PR if this is a new strategy for your business.
- How to create editorial relationships.
- How much time we should be allocating weekly to press initiatives and why it’s important
- When it’s time to bring in a publicist (this answer might surprise you)
- How to create SMART goals around your PR strategy.

Meghan combines in-the-trenches event experience with a love of wedding PR to empower her clients to take their business to new heights. This conversation was such a treat because I really think PR is an untapped marketing opportunity for so many creative business owners. If you’re not yet considering how to get press for your business, I want you to listen to this. It opened my eyes in so many ways. Without further ado, let’s dive in!
