Meet The Press: An Editor's View On Media Today October 1, 2009

Want to learn more about how to work with reporters and editors to get publicity for your firm? Are you yearning to discover how social media is changing the way journalists cover stories or look for leads?

Come to this special members-only event to get expert advice on how best to promote your firm and get the publicity you are seeking. Placement in traditional news articles and promotion through various online social networks are two avenues to communicate your firm’s message, principals, achievements and events. Effective navigation within these channels requires an awareness of the editorial requirements of a publication, as well as an understanding of the online outlets in which journalists are looking towards for leads and quotes.

Our panel of media experts discuss their editorial missions and how they are using the internet to gain and research leads and will share an insider’s perspective on how to get your message heard and your story published.

Featured Panelists:
George Calys, Architecture and design critic for San Francisco Examiner.com; Blanca Torres, East Bay real estate reporter for the San Francisco Business Times; Vladimir Bosanac, Publisher of The Registry; Robert Carlsen, Managing Editor for McGraw-Hill Construction Publications. Marion Thatch, Marketing Director of AMEC Geomatrix, will moderate the panel.
