Welcome. This Is the Conversation Nobody Was Having.

A family business owner in Kansas once called me out of nowhere and said: “I think I just killed my family’s business.” He hadn’t done anything wrong. He’d just done exactly what everyone told him to do — promote, be visible, say yes to every opportunity. Nobody taught him the other half. This episode is that other half.In this first episode of Publicist in Your Pocket, I’m sharing why I built this show, who it’s for, and the gap in the marketing and PR industry that nobody is talking about — until now. If you’ve ever felt like you’re building your visibility without any protection plan for when something goes wrong, this is for you.This episode is part of the Publicist in Your Pocket podcast by PR Shield — the show that gives business owners, founders, and creators the PR moves they couldn’t afford to hire.🔗 Get the expanded show notes, free templates, and tools inside the PR Shield community.📋 Topics covered:Why visibility creates vulnerability — and why nobody is talking about itThe phone call from Kansas that started everythingWho Publicist in Your Pocket is forCyndee’s origin story — from classroom teacher to reputation strategistWhat to expect from this show⏱️ Chapters:0:00 — The phone call that started everything1:00 — The gap nobody is filling2:00 — Who this show is for3:30 — Who I am and why me5:30 — What this show is6:30 — The manifesto---About Cyndee Harrison:Cyndee Harrison is an award-winning publicist and the founder of PR Shield® and Synaptic, a Michigan-based reputation studio.
