In this episode of the Thoughtful Entrepreneur, your host Josh Elledge speaks to the Founder, Publicist & Creative Director of
The Conscious Publicist, LLC,
Ashley Graham.
Ashley's journey began as a publicist, representing clients to get them featured on podcasts. However, in 2023, she took a leap of faith and became a podcaster. This transition allowed her to experience both sides of the podcasting journey, giving her a unique perspective on the power of this medium.
Ashley believes podcasts offer a direct window into conversations and the impact of shared stories. They have a unique power in storytelling and creating emotional connections through auditory experiences.
Regarding PR and publicity, Ashley emphasizes the importance of building solid relationships and adopting a long-term perspective. While visibility and recognition are the ultimate goals, PR is a journey that requires consistent effort and cannot guarantee immediate results.
Ashley acknowledged that some prospective clients still seek traditional media, but she also encouraged them to be open to other opportunities. While traditional media still holds value, Ashley emphasizes the benefits of digital platforms, such as repurposing content and measuring results through SEO.
