Janet Murray on Mastering PR and Getting your Story into the Media – MPAF93

Good PR can be perfect for your business growth.

If you have a story to tell journalists want to hear about it.

But there’s more to success than just bunging out a press release.

In this episode, I talk to Janet Murray, a journalist who helps people master PR and the opportunities it brings.

Listen to Janet’s tips on building relationships with journalists, how to pitch your story, and how to get it into the media.

That’s all right here in episode 93 of the Marketing Protection and Finance Podcast.

Janet Murray on Mastering PR and Getting your Story into the Media

Who is Janet Murray?

Janet has 15 years’ experience as a national journalist & editor working on The Guardian, The Times and The Huffington Post. She’s also in business to teach people how to get high-profile press coverage.

She doesn’t do PR for people, rather she prefers to  teach  her clients to do it themselves.

Janet believes this can be more effective than hiring a PR Agency for businesses of any size.

Alan and Kathryn Knowles on Special Risks Protection and Bold Zombie Advertising – MPAF91

In this episode I talk to Alan and Kathryn Knowles from Cura Financial Services.

They specialise in insurance for people who have existing conditions or take part in extreme pastimes or hazardous occupations .

The Financial Services industry call this  “impaired lives”. Alan and Kathryn have a much less gloomy term for it which we’ll discover in the chat.

But this small firm recently launched a bold marketing campaign for protection insurance using The Walking Dead’s Zombie theme. It’s hard-hitting. Striking. And not what we’ve come to expect from financial services firms.

Alan and Kathryn talk about why they’ve decided to be bigger and bolder and braver than most of their peers and where they are taking their marketing next.

That’s all right here in episode 91 of the Marketing Protection and Finance Podcast.
