| agutman76 | Posted – 1/26/2008 10:15:49 PM | show profile Hi. I have over 10 years of promotion and some publicity experience in the local music scenes of NYC and San Francisco. How do you develop media contacts? Where do these people gather? By having media contacts I've been told that you must know them and they must know you. I've pitched some shows to some people at outlets that did not get picked up. I have lots of names, numbers, and email addresses from Bacon's, but are those considered having contacts? Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks so much. Best, Alex pro.motions.212@gmail.com |
