Episode 191: Blogging Can Help You Get Other Media Inquiries
Summary
In this episode, I'm sharing a lesser-known benefit of blogging: your posts can get you featured in larger publications, journals, and the news. I tell the story of a client whose blog posts on a specific population led two people to reach out for features. I also tackle the biggest blocks I hear, like no time, no capacity, or not feeling like a good writer, and explain why you're already educating patients every day and just need to write it down.
