Hi Jordan,

Thanks for your nice response. It sounds like you need to conduct some more research about your target market. If the seniors and elderly you are trying to reach are not computer savvy, you’ll need to find other ways to reach them.

Great information! I definitely need all the help I can get when trying to get free publicity! My blog gets 50+ views a day, but my followers are not going up.
Is it possible that seniors and the elderly do not know how to subscribe to my blog, or is it hard to find on my site??
Feel free to visit my blog, leave a comment, build a back link and leave me some advice!

It is totally true. As a reporter, we are STARVING for stuff that is interesting and LOCAL to write about. But we want you to be prepared, and have something INTERESTING and NEWSWORTHY for us to work with.

Great article.

Hi Gregg,

Thanks for your nice message and providing such great tips! I think that if people remember to treat media members just like they’d like to be treated themselves, they’ll get a long way!

Thanks, Melanie. I worked in radio for 10-years in a previous life. If you want to get some radio publicity: (1) Be nice to the show producer. (2) Meet the host off-air (like at a remote or special appearance). (3) Participate in the conversation on-air (just avoid the political conversations).
