Thank you to Joe Garofoli from the San Francisco Chronicle and Mark Calvey from the San Francisco Business Times for a great conversation at our August PRSA SF event 🌟

A few key takeaways on how PR pros can get their stories told:
- Pitch the reporter, not just the publication
- Exclusives and being first are powerful
- Give reporters the “so what” by making the impact tangible
- Credibility compounds with every pitch

A great reminder that thoughtful pitching goes a long way in building stronger relationships and better stories!

What’s your favorite way to build relationships with reporters? 🤝
