Media Training for Startups
Most startups are in a unique position to shape their messages clearly and strategically.
You have a clean slate. What do you want to put on that slate?
How do you want to be perceived as a company and as an individual?
For what do you want to position your company and yourself in the future – an IPO, acquisition, international growth or something else?
What and how you communicate now can help you achieve your immediate and long-term goals.
