In this episode, John Jantsch talks with Mickie Kennedy about how small businesses can write press releases that generate real media coverage by focusing on story angles, contrarian insights, and strategic earned media opportunities. They explore how to use AI to structure stronger press releases, avoid syndication traps, and create newsworthy narratives journalists actually want.
