PR mentoring for small businesses

Spotlight Season

Four months of dedicated action and accountability to land features on you and your small business

This is a collaborative, done-with-you experience for founders who want to get out there, build awareness, and nurture trust.

If you have a message to share but need help working out how to say it, and where, you’re in the right place.

PR is way more than press coverage.

There’s all sorts of features and opportunities to use PR to grow your small business including podcast interviews, guest articles, public speaking, guest workshops, collaborations, and partnerships.

Get seen, heard & trusted

You know that getting booked to share your expertise – for example on podcasts, in the press, and at events – will build your reputation, attract your ideal clients, and generate opportunities.

But you’re struggling to get going and take action, and you’re not sure what’s worth your time.

Let’s change that.

Spotlight Season is a four-month experience where you’ll finally put yourself forward for expert opportunities, and build lasting visibility habits.

It’s your time to dedicate a season to your outreach – with my guidance, strategy, and support – to build momentum and get seen, heard, and trusted.

Let's finally tick PR off your to-do list

🥴 You know PR would benefit you but you haven’t yet found the time to be proactive about it.

😵‍💫 You don’t know where to start with finding the right opportunities worthy of your time.

🍑 You need a (gentle) kick up the bum to put yourself out there with confidence.

💭 Everyone’s telling you to share your excellent POV but you’re too busy to even think about that.

Who is Spotlight Season for?

I work with a diverse range of small business owners, including:

Product businesses, artists and makers, especially those who have a theme or narrative to the work they create

IRL or online service providers who are creative, and this includes anyone from a copywriter to a makeup artist, a photographer to a life coach

Community leaders and educators who run networks, events, and workshops

If you’re not sure if you fit in, feel free to email me.

Are you ready for PR though?

Let me reassure you that your voice is important and you deserve it to be heard.

You do not need a rags to riches story. I know how to shape your experiences and expertise into interesting, impactful insights to share with people who would love to hear them.

You do not need a big audience, a big business, or all your ducks lined up to benefit from PR.

You do need to understand who you are trying to reach and how you want to be perceived.

I work with you to build a media kit and leverage each and every feature that you get.

Build your profile as a trusted voice with PR

PR gives you the opportunity to share your expertise, stories, and opinions in more depth to help your clients tangibly visualise the difference your service, events or products will make in their lives.

Because what you do deserves more space than the words we can fit on the grid 👀 and you can use PR opportunities to help us understand and form a connection with you.

PR also creates a ripple effect – one interview often leads to more opportunities and new clients.

So if you want to become recognised as the go-to for what you do, let’s work together.
