Ep 40: Securing PR without projects, Hannah Cox

The Built Environment Marketing Show: marketing strategies and tactics for architects and engineers

Today’s special interview is a deep dive into ‘Securing PR without projects.’ My guest was creative PR expert Hannah Cox MCIPR.

We covered everything from the difference between press and PR, what journalists really want, wider PR/Comms opportunities worth exploring, how to follow up with a journalist without pestering them, messaging and much more.

The Built Environment Marketing Show is the new name for Marketing In Times of Recovery cos who wants a podcast name tied to the state of the UK economy.

And it’s still hosted by marketing consultant Ayo Abbas from Abbas Marketing. The consultancy bridges the gap between business strategy and tactical marketing for engineers and architects.
