‘Introduction To PR’ Toolkit

July 2023
Marketing

Intended for managers or employees at English, tourism-focused SMEs (small or medium-sized enterprises) who are not marketing professionals, this PR Toolkit advises you on how to secure media coverage in a time efficient manner.

It divides into four main sections: who to contact, what exactly to say, how best to say it and when to say it. Two additional sections then cover the incorporation of social media and ‘influencers’, plus suggestions on how best to evaluate or measure your PR campaign.

Included throughout are case studies from SMEs who have successfully scored media coverage without spending lots of time or money.

Remember that coverage rarely ensues organically: instead, it pays to be proactive, and to tell the right journalists why they should cover your business.

Contents:

  • Introduction
  • Who?
  • Choosing targets
  • Case Study #1: Adventures for the Soul
  • What?
  • Local, national or international?
  • What can you offer?
  • Case Study #2: Letheringham Water Mill Cottages
  • How?
  • Q&A
  • VisitEngland & VisitBritain marketing opportunities
  • Case Study #3: Fore/Adventure
  • When?
  • The art of chasing
  • Best-practice evaluation of your PR efforts
