48: How To Get Top Exposure In The Media, and Rock Your Interviews, with Mark Fortier

"You have to think about pitching as a two-way dialogue. It's not, 'let me sell myself.' It's not, 'let me announce what's great about me' to the world. It's a two-way dialogue and you have to be thinking just as hard about that journalist on the other end of your email as about you and what you have to say." - Mark Fortier In this episode of Finding Brave, my special guest will reveal not only how you can get the attention of top media, but also how to make the most of your appearance and then absolutely rock it.
