In this episode, we analyze a Vogue piece that stemmed from a different story idea entirely. From it, we learn how to nail down strategic pitching and story ideation, how to pivot when a reporter calls for it, and all the details that go into getting your client “Vogue-ready.” And, after our conversation today, you’ll walk away with newfound confidence, knowing how to stick out, not just in an accomplished freelance reporter’s email inbox, but also on their social feed!
In this episode you’ll learn…
What makes a piece “Vogue-ready” (or ‘Bustle-ready;’ ‘NY Times-ready; etc.!)
Why consistency is key (reporters recognize some publicists by name!)
New ways to relationship-build via social (not just on Twitter!)
