Do you want to learn how to pitch to journalists?

Hi all,

Great to be part of this community - really enjoying reading through all of your stories and tips!

So I'm an ex-journlaiist and also work in PR. I've noticed that over the years smaller startup clients have wasted a ton of money on expensive PR agencies and not achieved much coverage. I felt there was an appetite out there for a do-it-yourself-type course/resources so I put together www.moderndispatches.com

The main resource on the site right now is for entrepreneurs looking to get coverage for their startup without hiring an agency - the Ultimate Guide (you can access it when you put in your email address in the signup forms).

I've had good feedback from people I know, but would be GREAT to get your thoughts on this. As indiehackers I imagine at some stage you will want to get media coverage of some sort. As well as the Ultimate Guide (you can get this if you enter your email) I am thinking of putting together the following resources:

Best new AI tools to use to optimise content creation (the site also focuses on content production as part of PR)
PR templates
How to get coverage using tools such as HARO (Help a reporter out) email templates for this etc
The aim is to have full PR toolkits for entrepreneurs looking to do everything on their own, including social media/content creation.

Would be great to hear your thoughts - thanks

    Sounds really good, what's the latest on this? I've sent out quite a few responses to HARO queries now which I thought were pretty useful and well thought out but I haven't heard back from any reporters!
