    Our PR bestie explains why it worked:

    • The pitch was timely. Many US businesses, both small and large, were facing significant challenges due to global supply chain issues as a result of the pandemic.
    •  I did my research. The New York Times has a staff of nearly 6,000, but through research and persistence, I was able to identify the right reporter/editor.  
    • Great soundbites. My client is a passionate, outspoken entrepreneur who not only provided good insight into the challenges of US small businesses but also provided colorful soundbites that caught the reporter’s attention and brought the story to life.
