READ MORE ABOUT YOUR CONTENT PROMOTION STRATEGY
*Media and influencer relations are not typically leveraged when faced with tight timelines. Generally, it takes several months or more to earn trust from and collaboration with journalists, editors and influencers. However, if these relationships are cultivated prior to the start of a campaign, leveraging outreach with a timeframe of less than a month is possible. Otherwise, it’s best to plan media outreach on campaigns lasting two or more months.
