Figuring out on how to get the media to cover your event can be really frustrating 😣 But don’t worry. I got you!
FIRST…. FOLLOW me to get all my media tips that can help you just like they helped B. Sherrie get media coverage for her amazing event.
As you’re planning your event, here are some things to consider to make it more likely to get media coverage.
🔐 Timeliness: Is your event related to a topic that’s hot in the news right now? Is your event connected with an anniversary, holiday, or other event that journalists will be interested in?
🔐 Visuals and audio: What can news camera or photographer expect to see at your event? What will make your event visually appealing and grab a reporters attention? What special guests will be there?
🔐 Scheduling: Will it be easy for media to make it? Typically, reporters work dayside (9-6) and nightlight (2-11) shifts and gathering elements at the beginning of their shift to right a story for the evening news or on a 5pm deadline for print.
🔐 Avoid competition: Is your event competing with any big local events or elections that will likely dominate coverage? If so, balance your expectations and aim to get coverage in advance of the event to help promote and attract people.
If you need more help, register for my upcoming LEVERAGE YOU SUMMIT!!!

Career Pivot
I recently had the absolute pleasure of speaking at a Women's Empowerment event organized by the amazing Ms. Laquita Brooks. 💖 During my talk, I got real about my journey, sharing that pivotal lightbulb moment when I realized I couldn't keep doing something I was no longer passionate about.
That decision to change everything has since allowed me to help others amplify their voices and share their incredible stories. I'm so grateful for the chance to connect with and inspire other women on their unique paths!

Getting the media to take notice of your important work can be really frustrating, but I can help!
But first! FOLLOW me to learn all about my media tips and programs to support you!
With so much information online and people saying different things...it can become overwhelming and confusing.
Do you need media exposure to showcase your work?Do you need to generate new funding and donations to help continue your work?
Well I'll tell you this! All of the nonprofits that l've worked with or provided strategic communications support to have been 100% successful at getting media exposure!!!!
And how were they able to do that? I have a very specific strategy that can get you your first or your next media interview!
On average it takes up to a month to get you booked, and sometimes even just a couple days!
Booking a media interview can have major impact on the growth and development of your nonprofit, expose you to potential funders and further validate your important work!!
And you won't have to waste time trying to figure it all out on your own!

Leverage You
People ask me all the time about the process to write my book— When did you find the time? How did you get started? How did you publish it?
Truth is… it was a long process that required some vulnerability. This book was two years in the making and in the beginning I had no clue where to start. I’ve always been good at writing everyone else’s stories, but what was my story? What did I have to say? I questioned if I had anything meaningful to share and wondered if people would even care.
Here’s a look at what the process was like and what it took to get Leverage YOU published. What I’ve learned is no matter how much of an expert you are at one thing there are still some things that will challenge you, make you feel uncomfortable and take you out of your comfort zone.
But if being a mom to my beautiful boy has taught me anything, it’s to constantly explore and learn new things. So let this encourage you to do the same.
