PR for Creatives seminar
Learn the secrets to getting traditional media coverage from a top arts publicist - and never pay for PR again.
Traditional PR agencies charge between $3,000 and $20,000 per month for publicity - with a minimum sign-on period of six months. Even freelance PRs cost anything from $2,000 to $5,000 a week.
Now you can get the coverage yourself with the PR for Creatives seminar, taught by top arts publicist, national newspaper journalist, and BBC broadcaster, Boo Paterson.
This unique one-time-only teaching session will save you time and money.
There's no 'padding' with weeks and weeks of Zoom calls providing hardly any content. Just one seminar, where you'll get all the information you need to do successful publicity, condensed into three hours.
