Exposure through earned media — like podcast and radio interviews, or article profiles — is a powerful tool to reach and influence target markets. Here are three ways you can use earned media to accelerate sales: 

1. Know your goals. Are you seeking immediate sales results, website visits to impress donors or investors, or thought leadership to drive market influence? The answer will help you create tailored content for quality placements and develop a proven process for press success. 

2. Maximize the value of your media exposure by:

• Sending placements to relevant media outlets for extra coverage and possible republishing. 
• Telling clients, prospects, and industry influencers through a newsletter, on social media, and on your website.
• Creating multiple exclusive opportunities for your target media outlets.

3. Avoid bad press. The same study that found 44{7c6527512529bb2d1a11cab05ed53e8eecfe721575e8501144ad2deb057fb22a} of customers increase brand loyalty due to earned media also found that 51{7c6527512529bb2d1a11cab05ed53e8eecfe721575e8501144ad2deb057fb22a} of customers reduce brand loyalty when seeing negative coverage. Steer clear of unnecessary controversies while building a durable brand.
