The same goes for Linkedin requests. People always want me to introduce them to someone in my connections and if I don’t know the person asking me to make the introduction, I ask them to do the same thing, create a blurb about themselves that I can pass along.

You’d be surprised at how often the requester never responds further. I heard a speaker at a tech conference say to do that and as a publicist who pitched celebrities to red carpet events for years, I always had their pitch finessed so the receiving publicist had all the information they needed to determine whether or not my client was newsworthy.

Publicity is publicity is publicity whether you’re pitching a person, a product, or company. Brevity packed with facts is key.

Thanks for the info. Enjoy your blogs.

Best,

Joy Kennelly
