Are you having a tough time finding news to report 🧐


Are you having a tough time finding news to report?

Try a spokesperson pitch instead.

It could go something like this:

"Hey XYZ,

I'm reaching out because I'm a regular reader of your articles in XYZ about XYZ topic.

I'm an expert in XYZ who could be a valuable resource for your future stories.

Below, you'll find my bio and a list of topics I’m well-versed in.

πŸ“ Your short bio

πŸ“ A brief list of relevant, hyper-specific topics

πŸ“ž Contact information to get in touch

Thanks,

Christina"

Including that quick list of *specific* topics is important because so many journalists use the search bar in their emails to search for sources.

You want YOUR source to stand out when they're looking for specific keywords.

Think of it like email SEO.

You might not land an interview right away, but writers often circle back for future stories weeks, months, and even years down the road.

Wow, baby! A lot has happened since we last chatted. I went to Madrid, my first European trip to see Taylor Swift. TWICE. Yep!

It’s been a minute. I’ve been a busy bee with a new role as the PR and Communications Manager at StoryBlok - a company that has a culture I am obsessed with. It literally checks all the boxes. #luckyme I’m still filling up every Little Free Library I spot. (Watch here!) I also hosted a non-profit event to help get dogs adopted.
