Publicists are not only for celebrities anymore. As a publicist, I represent a singer/musician, a non-profit charity, a very high-profile attorney, media personality and a for-profit company. As a journalist who knows the inner workings of media, with solid relationships with editors, reporters, and publishers, I can get write-ups, coverage and placement for my clients easier than most other publicists. My job is to keep my clients and their brand front and center with their target audience, promote them with various media outlets and expand their overall reach.
