How to Make the Most of Radio Interviews

Want to know how to make the Most out of Radio Interview Opportunities? Here’s an article I found a good Q & A article in Entrepreneur.com called Publicize Your Business With Radio Interviews by Al Lautenslager: Guerrilla Marketing. (Although it was published some time ago, the information is still relavant today)
“Q: How can I generate PR by radio interviews, and what do I say if I get one?
A: Just like the publishing of your press release in a publication, radio PR is free advertising. And just like PR in a publication, some of the same considerations must be given to radio PR. In a publication, a directed press release needs to be newsworthy. At the least, it has to be of interest to the readership of the publication. In radio, a radio interview must be of interest to the “listenership.” You don’t interview a business author on a home and gardening show. You don’t interview a public official on a technology and computer show. And just like publication PR, interviews and news items are generated by press releases-so don’t forget to add your local radio stations to your press release distribution list.”

Here’s a great article that complements the one above, that I recommend you read “MEDIA TRAINING TIPS” by Annie Jennings of Annie Jennings PR.
