Okay, this just in. If you want me or someone from Beat Kitchen to come and talk to your newspaper, we would be delighted. Not only does that sound like the most fun part of my day, it would help us get that blue check, which is now essentially worthless because you can buy them.
But because businesses aren’t eligible, I get messages like this. I represent a PR firm helping influencers grow their brand. We’re currently working on an article for a- record scratch “The influential producers making elastic impact.” I feel like you’d make a good addition to this list.
And we’re selling slots in this article. For $1,000 each. Hmm, I’ll tell you what.
There are a lot of people who struggle to pay a membership in our school. If you want to sponsor one of their scholarships, I would be very, very happy to come and be in your article. You’d be joining the ranks of some actual reputable companies that are partnering with us in just that way.
Or if you write for a real publication, and I don’t care if that means your 8th grade journalism class, I’d be delighted to come and talk to you for free.
