Event Details

Startup PR Summit 2010 is a unique and rare opportunity for startups to learn from accredited members of the national, local, and technology press about PR.

Startups often don't know where to start when it comes to pitching the press on stories. In this one day summit, we will cover the following topics:

  • How and when to pitch the press
  • How to tell your story
  • How to do an interview
  • Common mistakes made when pitching the press
  • Talking to Press versus Bloggers
  • Talking to Tech Media (VentureBeat, TheNextWeb, Pop17, etc.)
  • National press (mainstream media): Financial Times, Forbes, etc.
  • Local press: CBS5
  • PR on a Budget
