Who better to talk about PR and what it takes to get noticed than PR veteran, Jim James, Founder of EASTWEST PR.

Get ready for some story time because in this episode, Jim shares insights into how he’s spent the last 25 years building successful businesses around the world and offers some advice on how to consistently create, repurpose, and distribute engaging content far and wide.

Sneak peek:

"I often talk about what I call the 'Active Communications Index' which is Content x Channels x Consistency. So, how much content do you create over how many channels you share it, and most importantly, how consistently do you share it? Because what many companies do is they create content occasionally that's good, or they create stuff consistently that's dull. The challenge is to create content that goes across all channels and is delivered consistently and is engaging." - Jim James

Key discussions covered in this episode include:

  • The evolution of PR and how to bypass the traditional channels to stand out more
  • Examples of some out-of-the-box content formats
