Writing A Topical Press Release
Good PR can revolve largely around hanging your story on an event that is in the public eye and trying to keep track of them can be a real nightmare so, all the usual 10 Yetis article waffle to one side, feast your eyes on this little beauty.
Once again, totally free of charge and from this you will be able to write a topical press releases in advance so you can be the most uber-prepared SME in the world!
A few light hearted notes from me on the side of each date as a reminder of what each one is.
If you can think of any more then just fire them over to us.
