About you
You might have great press visibility in your home country, but you want to raise your profile on the international stage.
Or you might have tried to interest the international media, but they are refusing the take the bait.
Perhaps you look at other business schools and think: “Why don’t we get mentioned in the media?”
How other schools are benefitting from an international media profile
By generating international press coverage, other schools are:
- Generating valuable third-party endorsement for their programmes and activities
- Getting featured in outlets that are known to influence student choice
- Becoming known as leaders in their areas of expertise
- Strengthening their online visibility, increasing website clicks and enquiries
- Building a bank of powerful assets to share and re-share on social media, boosting sales and marketing campaigns.
- These schools are seeing more leads, greater awareness amongst potential partners and funders, and increased engagement within industry and the community.
Getting international media coverage is tricky:
- Journalists are extremely busy and time-poor – getting their attention is hard
- Reporters are extremely focused on their readers – they don’t want self-promoting stories
- You are competing against a host of organisations – it’s easy to be overlooked
- The bar for media coverage is higher than ever – weak stories won’t cut it.
