Want your product featured in Mother’s Day gift guides but don’t know where to start? In this episode, I break down proven PR strategies to pitch journalists, stand out in a crowded inbox, and land free media coverage—all without hiring a PR agency. Learn how to craft the perfect pitch, find the right media contacts, and increase your chances of getting featured. Plus, I share real-life success stories and insider tips you can start using today!
Crafting the Perfect PR Pitch for Mother's Day (and Beyond)
- Substack for finding journalist opportunities before publication
- Source of Sources (replacing HARO) for daily journalist requests
- Research publication-specific gift guide parameters
- Focus on 1-2 standout items rather than your entire product line
- Use email tracking software to monitor if journalists open emails
- Building credibility to compete with larger brands
Getting featured in gift guides provides small businesses year-round visibility without expensive ads. Research publication opportunities, craft targeted pitches, and follow up strategically to secure media coverage—even with a single product. PR is a numbers game where persistence builds credibility.
