Must-Subscribe PR Newsletters

Share the goods.

Hands typing on a laptop

As a PR professional, your days are filled with research, media lists, interview coordination, segment rundowns, media kits, pitches, press releases, follow-up, emails, client calls and more. What we often put last is ongoing education and learning. It needs to be a top priority, and these kickass PR newsletters are a great place to start.

Muck Rack

This should not be a surprise to anyone who follows us or Bode834 on social media. We are diehard Muck Rack fans. Here is what you can expect from their newsletter:

  • Journalism job changes: A daily digest of journalism job changes to help you make sense of the movers, the shakers and the next place to catch your friends’ and colleagues’ bylines.
  • Eavesdrop on journalists: Journalists send hundreds of thousands of tweets a day. Muck Rack finds the tweets they send and the stories they share, then quote the best ones.
  • News trends: Some pretty nutty things trend on Twitter, so they focus on topics trending among just journalists (though they can be a little nutty, too).

Spin Sucks

We are BIG fans of Gini Dietrich. BIG fans. No matter how you like to take in new information, she has it covered. We love her weekly podcast, which is between 6 to 10 minutes and is perfect for keeping a PR pro’s attention. 

The newsletter covers trends, tips, tricks, insights and more. We put into practice what we learn from the Spin Sucks community on a regular basis.

Social Media Examiner

Don’t even say it…this is an incredibly relevant newsletter for PR professionals. Social media is a major tactic for media outreach and reporters pull stories from TikTok, Twitter, Facebook and more. One of the recent newsletters touched on turning Twitter followers into newsletter subscribers, as well as utilizing TikTok as a part of your content strategy.

PR Daily

PR Daily covers all things media, PR, marketing, social media, etc. The newsletter is a great cross-section of all of these topics and drops once a day in your inbox. The emails cover trends and insights and, most importantly, PR news like what is happening in the agency world, with other professionals and more. 

These are just a few of the ones we read on a daily basis. Check out other recommendations by Muck Rack.

You also need to be subscribed to all your local, statewide and client industry publications. We get everything from Supply Chain Dive to National Sprinkler News. It’s how we stay on top of what is happening in our clients’ markets.

Need someone to tackle PR for you? You’re in the right place. Drop us a line, and we’ll chat about all things PR.

We love Dr. Karen May’s mission.

What if we taught our daughters AND our sons about women’s health, hormones, and pregnancy? Not as a whispered “talk” or a one-time awkward conversation. Just normal dinner-table stuff.

The girls deserve to know what’s coming (perimenopause shouldn’t be a surprise party nobody wanted). And the boys? They’ll be partners, dads, coworkers, and bosses to women going through all of it.

Thank you, Dr. May, for sharing your best practices to keep the women’s health conversation going at our Uncomfortable Conversations | The Pause event.

… and we wouldn’t have it any other way.

Meet Joey, one of @bodespeaks’ nine rescues and 8THIRTYFOUR’s self-appointed office manager. She’ll happily accept head pats and belly rubs, but make no mistake: she’s always watching.

The Women’s Owners Network (WON) is built for smaller businesses that are ready for the next level and need the right support to get there, whatever that looks like.

The six-month program combines the practical side of business with the emotional side. Participants work on leadership, finance, operations, and access to capital. They also get structured support for isolation, emotional volatility, and decision fatigue that come with owning a business.

WON is designed by entrepreneurs who have been there. They know that lasting business growth depends on personal growth and the resilience it takes to keep going.

This program gives women business owners thoughtful, well-rounded support to reach their next chapter, however they define it.

Who is WON built for?
Women founders who are in the thick of it and are:

- Past the idea stage: actively generating revenue and serving customers
- Committed to growth: ready to invest six months in the work, starting in November

Apply for the upcoming cohort at the link in bio. Applications close Oct 1.
