Think you need a big social media following to land media features or get paid by brands? In this episode, Amy shares how even a small (or brand new) social media presence can help you grow your brand, land interviews, and get noticed by companies. Amy breaks down why it’s helpful to have just one solid platform, what to include in your bio, and how to make it super easy for reporters and brands to find and contact you. She also shares simple tips for turning media features into content that builds your credibility, and might even lead to new clients or paid partnerships. No need to do it all or be everywhere online. Just start small, be strategic, and let people know what you’re up to.
