What's Happening ...

Virtual Marketing Monday is set April 12

This free event, “The Do’s & Don'ts of Telling Your Story to the Media” is set noon to 1 p.m., Monday, April 12.

Public relations is meant to establish credibility, introduce a new product, position an individual or company as subject matter experts, and create brand recognition. But how do you stand out when only 2% of stories pitched are actually picked up?

Presented by Kim Bode of 8THIRTYFOUR.
