Booked in a Day is for creatives, consultants, and changemakers who want to reach more people with their message and mission, build authority, and finally put themselves forward for new opportunities.
You’ll walk away with:
✦ Clarity on how to leverage and shape your experience, expertise, opinions and stories to land PR opportunities
✦ Exciting (and specific) ideas to promote yourself beyond social media
✦ Confidence to put yourself out there and pitch authentically
✦ New connections and collaboration energy
✦ Zero homework (unless you ask for it 😉)
People buy from small business owners because they invest in the individual. With PR we can find spaces for you to share what you do in a way that feels natural and showcases the depth of your expertise or the meaning behind your work.
If you’re not sure where the right place is to share it – or you think ‘you have nothing interesting to say’ – trust me, I can shape what you do into compelling stories to share and promote.
You can share your mission + message by…
✦ Speaking at events
✦ Landing press features
✦ Guesting on podcasts
✦ Writing guest articles
✦ Collaborating with other amazing individuals
✦ Partnering with meaningful organisations
…if you put yourself forward for them.
PR is really super important for small business owners…
✷ PR is brilliant at reaching more people
✷ PR platforms the voice and person behind the business
✷ PR builds a reputation for what you want to be known for
✷ PR shares the impact of your work
✷ PR connects us with you on a deeper level
✷ PR doesn’t just get you in front of a buttload of randomers, it engages those people for a good chunk of time at the very moment they’re first coming across you.
✷ PR nurtures your existing community
✷ PR builds unshakeable trust in you
WORKSHOP AGENDA
✦ Touring you through different opportunities for your business: from press to guest podcasts, collaborations to public speaking, guest posting to guest workshops
✦ How to leverage and shape your experience, expertise, and opinions as well as pitch yourself authentically
✦ Find aligned publications, podcasts, communities, collaborators and opportunities you want to reach out to
✦ Craft the topics and stories you want to share and pitch
✦ I will provide individual support throughout the day to each of you with any aspect of your PR, e.g. key messages, finding specific opportunities, and pitch writing.
✦ You’ll also get ideas and support from the other attendees
You’ve had “get featured” or “do PR” on your to-do list for way too long – but every time you sit down to do it, there’s too many decisions, questions, and that oh lovely self-doubt.
😵💫 Where do I pitch?
🤨 What do I say?
🤦 Is this even the right kind of opportunity for me?
It’s time to take action with someone to guide you through it – I got you.
This isn’t a “watch me talk” kind of workshop where you learn and then have to go away and implement. It’s a roll-up-your-sleeves, in-real-time, supportive day of writing, thinking, and doing.
It’s a small group and I’ll offer personal support throughout so that when you carve out this time for PR, and make real progress by the end of the day!
The day was packed with practical tools, inspiring ideas, and expert insight that made PR feel not just doable, but exciting.
Bridie delivers the course with warmth and expertise.
I left with a clear plan and much more confidence.
Life & career coach, Bristol
Bridie’s workshop was a great insight into the world of modern day PR, how to find opportunities, how to respond to pitches and an opportunity to meet new people.
It was a really valuable, worthwhile day.
Life & business coach, Southampton
Bridie was so thoughtful, encouraging, and generous in sharing ideas and potential PR opportunities for us. I came away reframing how I’d been thinking about PR. I joined the workshop thinking “oh I’m a bit crap at this” but Bridie reminded me how much I am already doing. It was so good to spend time thinking about what I want to be known for, and where/who I can reach out to to be more visible. I hope to book in for more PR magic in the future.
Advocacy Consultant, Devon
Booked in a Day was a brilliant experience. I walked in the room with little-to-no knowledge about PR and walked out more confident, more ready to take action and with a great cheerleader in Bridie.

Bridie has an effortless touch in not only providing expert PR advice, but tailoring that to each person with such flourish and ease.

I find getting some fresh air at lunchtime is perfect to let the brain cogs whir and refresh our energy – there are delicious options aplenty along North Street.
