If you've ever considered hiring a publicist, this episode is a must-listen. Lindsey Walker, founder of Walker + Associates Media Group, breaks down the realities of working with a publicist—what to expect, what NOT to expect, and how to set yourself up for success.

In this episode, Lindsey covers: 

  • The biggest misconceptions about PR and why it's NOT an overnight solution 
  • Why hiring a publicist does not guarantee sales (and what you need in place for PR to actually work) 
  • The difference between publicity, marketing, and advertising—and why you may need all three 
  • What makes a client PR-ready and why having a strong brand foundation is crucial 
  • How long it actually takes to see results from a PR campaign (hint: it’s not 30 days!) 
  • Alternative PR investment options for those who aren’t ready for a long-term retainer

PLUS: Lindsey shares real success stories from clients who leveraged PR the right way—and what you can learn from them.
