No news, no problem. It takes effort and practice to consciously position yourself to *be the news*:   Take note of upcoming events or significant dates relevant to your community and business/industry/niche. → Is there a holiday, season, or industry-related trend you could offer your unique insight? To stay relevant and engaging, plan your content creation and pitch around what’s happening in the news cycle. → Before sending your pitch, take a beat to ensure it adds value to the outlet's audience. It’s not about you. No journalist worth their salt will publish an ego piece. Connect the dots to the reporter on *why* your pitch is relevant to their readers or viewers. #Pitch #Pitching
