How to Read Like a Publicist: A Design Milk Case Study
One of the first pieces of advice we give designers, brands, and businesses who want to start pitching their work is to actually read the publications you want to get featured in.
This seems so obvious but we can’t emphasize it enough. To create successful pitches and secure media placements, you need to get really familiar with individual publication’s content, story angles, assets, article editors, etc.
That said, how you read is just as important as what you read. In this post we're reviewing a feature our sister company, Wolf PR, secured for Sabai, a sustainable DTC sofa company. Our goal is to show you what reading the media looks like from a PR perspective. You can use the same techniques to research where your work fits and where you want to pitch.
