Award-winning freelance journalist Rosie Taylor reveals what makes a pitch stand out, how to grab attention with an email and why targeting and timing are so important.

Every day, Rosie receives multiple story pitches and press releases from PRs, individuals and organisations - and successfully pitches the best of these to editors at the UK’s leading publications. In this engaging and informal session, she explains how to approach pitching “cold” (when you don’t have an existing relationship with the journalist), what makes a pitch catch her eye – and shares her advice on how to get a “yes” from editors.

Sessions can be delivered face-to-face, online or hybrid.
