Erwan Derlyn - PR for startups
I am thrilled to welcome Clara Armand-Delille, Founder and MD of ThirdEyeMedia, to discuss the often misunderstood (and underrated) realm of startup PR. With a background at industry powerhouses such as Google and Accel Partners and more than 15 years in communications, Clara knows her stuff. Having worked together at iZettle, I can attest to her ability to transform brand stories. In this discussion, we'll explore practical tips tailored for startups. We’ll also host a hands-on workshop for those who want to take their PR game to the next level. E: To kick things off, was there a specific 'aha' moment that made you go, "Yep, PR is definitely my thing?”
E: In your own words, what's PR? Do you feel it plays a different role in startups than in established companies?
E: You're standing in a coffee line beside a startup founder. You've got 30 seconds to turn them into a PR believer. What's your pitch?
E: I've seen how PR can improve the effectiveness of other marketing channels, but founders often see it as an either/or option. Given your experience helping startups with PR, can you provide examples of how it can complement and enhance other marketing efforts?
E: For cash-constrained startups, when should they go the DIY route, and when is it worth working with a pro like you?
E: What are the not-so-obvious metrics or indicators that startups should track to know if their PR efforts are working?
E: Can you recommend a few must-have tools or resources that startups should consider for their PR activities?
E: What are your thoughts on AI's role in PR? Should startups be optimistic, cautious, or perhaps a mix of both?
E: To wrap things up, you've got one do, and one don't for startups in PR. What's your best advice, and what pitfall should they avoid?
E: Last but not least, we're co-hosting a workshop in a few days to help startups fine-tune their PR efforts with hands-on guidance. Why should founders attend, and what can they expect?
A huge thank you to Clara for taking the time to share her valuable insights. You can connect with Clara on LinkedIn and learn more about her services at ThirdEyeMedia. For those who want to dive deeper into the topic and take their PR initiatives to the next level, don't miss our upcoming free, hands-on workshop on October 10. Until next time, |
