How Entrepreneurs Can Get Free Media Coverage and Become the Go-To Expert in Their Field | Kate Engler

In this energising episode of Biz Bites For Thought Leaders, Anthony Perl sits down with Kate Engler, founder of the Meet the Press Masterclass, to unpack the secrets of earning free media coverage as an entrepreneur.

With over 30 years in the publicity and media space, Kate created the Meet the Press Masterclass 14 years ago after watching brilliant entrepreneurs leave PR agencies despondent because they couldn't afford the $5,000 to $8,000 monthly fees. Her mission: to give every entrepreneur the tools to earn their own media coverage.

In this conversation, Kate shares why free media is available to every entrepreneur, how to pitch journalists effectively, why you should never use AI to write your pitches, and the critical difference between paid advertising and earned editorial coverage. She also shares remarkable success stories, including a finance expert who generated 120 new leads and $95,000 in revenue from a single Sky News appearance without mentioning his business once.

Whether you're a business owner, consultant, or thought leader, this episode will change how you think about publicity, media, and building your expert reputation.
