As a television producer for over 20 years, I get asked a lot of questions about how to pitch media and what they’re looking for. During my career as a news producer I saw a lot of awesome pitches and even more that I deleted without a second look.
Now as a media trainer who works with authors to get and keep media attention, I’ve helped dozens of non-fiction and fiction writers to prepare for media opportunities. I even have a resource all about pitching — it’s called the Media Pitch Guide and you can get access right here.

If you know me – you know I love lists!
And notes are just long lists! So I guess I love notes too.
I take notes on everything – every phone call, every conversation, everything.
It’s from my training as a journalist – you just never know when you’ll stumble across something useful.
But how do you take notes without driving yourself crazy and writing down every last bit?
I actually created a whole course on LinkedIn Learning all about this called Enhance Your Productivity with Effective Note-Taking.
When LinkedIn approached me about making a course on note-taking I scratched my head a bit because I thought everyone knew how to take effective notes, like I had learned to do as a journalist and producer.
And that’s not the case. So in this episode of Inside Scoop I want to share some of the strategies I talk about in my Enhance Your Productivity with Effective Note-Taking course. Read more
