Workshops cover subjects such as how to set out your press release and tips on building relationships with your local media.

3Sometimes things don’t go as you planned them or mistakes are made.

From time to time those mistakes catch the attention of local, regional or even national media and you feel under siege.

He knows how the industry thinks and can bring that knowledge to help you manage your crisis and diminish any negative coverage.
