On Tuesday, January 26th, FPRA Space Coast Chapter VP of Resource Development David Waters will be a panelist of the Founders Forum Marketing Madness program: Talking to the Media.
Good publicity can be the catalyst for business success. But don’t expect the press to come knocking down your door for a story about your latest widget or service. You have to grab the attention of reporters and editors with preparation, presentation and persistence.
