| Article Title :: What You Know Can Work Just As Well As Who You Know |
| |
| We all know the saying in business, "It's not what you know but who you know", right? This saying is definitely true when it comes to small business and on occasion, the same can be said in media relations. However, what you know can sometimes get you just as far - especially if you're trying to tell your story to the local press. Some time ago, a small-business client approached me about handling public relations for her firm. She had been writing her own press releases and submitting them to the press but all of her efforts had generated no press.

I receive hundreds of emails a day, lots of spam and lots of genuine advertisements. The genuine ones come from people that I do business with, from subscribers to my ezine, from ezines that I subscribe to, from affiliate programs that I am associated with and from potential prospects and advertisers.
