Surprising Ways PR Can Build Your Business

Surprising Ways PR Can Build Your Business

What makes public relations so fascinating is the unexpected. Once you get the story out there, you never know who is going to see, hear or read it. It can result in totally surprising and unanticipated results.

I always start a campaign with certain objectives in mind. I have a target market I want to reach and I have some objective that I want to achieve. But because of the powerful nature of the media, I have witnessed some amazing results that neither I nor my clients envisioned. I have seen companies and careers built in record time, have had clients
offered their own radio and TV shows after having been seen on the media. I've had clients offered positions in other companies, larger companies have offered buy-outs or mergers, and one client was offered complete financing on a new business venture after appearing on one talk show.

One client was getting ready to self publish a book, but the media we garnered help catch the eye of a major publisher. A deal was struck and the book was published.

I'd love to say that I had intentionally masterminded all of these results, but I’m generally as surprised as my clients when these offers and proposals come in. That's what makes it so fascinating. When you start a campaign, you have your objectives, your target markets and your benchmarks, but, you never know who's watching or listening, and you never know where that last story or interview will lead you.

Leanne Hoagland-Smith
Are your sales where you want them to be? Will you be one of the few who achieves sales or business success or one of the many who have failed to change? Are you tired of being told you are like everyone else? Then you may find my first book on sales of interest. Be the Red Jacket in the Sea of Gray Suits, The Keys to Unlocking Sales available at Amazon or at http://www.processspecialist.com/red-jacket.htm. This book is a reflection of my no-nonsense approach to improving sales to overall business results. If you are truly committed to making sustainable changes, then I can help you secure a positive return on your investment because I focus on executable solutions not telling you the problems you already know you have. From training to corporate (group) coaching to executive one on one coaching, my approach is to assess, create awareness, build a goal driven action plan and then execute. The bottom line question is "Not do you or your employees know it, but do you or they want to do it?" Please call for a free strategy session at 219.759.5601. - Visit Leanne Hoagland-Smith's Website
