Messaging and Dealing with the Media
Led by Merryn Myatt, an experienced strategic media & communications trainer - www.perris-myatt.co.uk
Whether you're growing your brand, pitching to press, or just want to sound more confident when talking about your work — this session is for you.
We’ll dive into how to craft clear, compelling, and credible Key Messages that reflect your values and resonate with your audience. Learn how to back them up with substance, shape them for specific topics, and use storytelling to make them stick.
We'll also unpack some of the common myths about journalists (that also apply to influencers!) and show you how to start building your own ‘story library’ for future press, marketing, or funding opportunities.
A friendly, informal, practical session full of takeaways. Any who is part of the Withington Baths community or based locally to Withington is welcome - come along to network and learn. There will be plenty of opportunity to share your own experience and insights and ask questions too.
Refreshments and snacks provided.
Location TBC - this will be sent out prior to the event, RSVP for more information
