О курсе

Public relations can build a brand's credibility in a single well-placed story, or quietly undo months of work with one avoidable misstep. This course walks through the mistakes that trip up PR professionals and business owners most often, from planning a campaign to pitching a reporter to handling the ethical gray areas of representing a brand in public. Across six skill-focused modules, you'll test whether a story is actually newsworthy, decide when a business is ready for PR, choose the right spokesperson, write a pitch that earns a reporter's attention, target the publications your audience actually reads, build reporter relationships that last, correspond with the press honestly, and keep your ethics intact under pressure. Each module pairs realistic scenarios, like a skeptical reporter reviewing your pitch, with practical checks you can apply right away. By the end of the course, you'll have a concrete set of habits for planning, pitching, and communicating that helps you avoid the errors that most often cost PR professionals credibility, coverage, and trust, and a clearer sense of what separates a pitch that lands from one that gets deleted.
