Calling all activists: how to gain access to the media

Below you'll find a canned message (which I've edited a bit)
about a free course in how to gain access to the media for
your organization.

I can't recommend this course highly enough.

The course consists of three sessions, conducted online
via a live phone call with the presenter, and a set of
powerpoint slides that can be either downloaded or viewed
on their website.

I took their first session last Tuesday, and I have to say it was
excellent.
* The presenters are personable, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic.
* The slides are concise, colorful, and professionally done.
* The information is time-tested and canny.

You can see and hear the entire 75-minute session in streaming
video (or just view the slides) by visiting

Click on the links under "July 25: Mainstream Media: Breaking In"

I urge every activist to take advantage of the two remaining
sessions.

Do yourself a favor, and reserve next Tuesday evening from
7:30 pm to about 8:45 pm Chicago time for the second session,
and the following Tuesday for the third session.

To register, visit the site listed below.

We now return you to our regularly scheduled message....

Regards,

Roy

"Rob Kall's book, Bottom-Up: Tapping the Power of the Connection Revolution has really caused me to relook and reframe many of my thoughts on where our connectedness using social media tools like LinkedIn is headed, and not just for career trajectory but for life. If you are looking for a new perspective on our sometimes zany digital world we live in, this book will keep you reading and may ultimately revise but for sure challenge your current paradigm."
