EXCLUSIVE: Special Discounted PF Rate for MediaMatch Event Tuesday Night

Potomac Flacks is proud to have secured a last minute, discount rate for our readers.

MediaMatch is an intimate event featuring top bookers, producers, editors and reporters. You’ll hear from these insiders just what kinds of pitches get their attention…and why so many others leave them cold.

Then you’ll get one-on-one time with whichever media pros you think are most likely to be interested in your pitch. These journalists are also looking for new sources and fresh voices.

This is a great - and very unique - opportunity to build stronger relationships with senior members of the local and national media.

We'll have syndicated columnist Bob Franken, Real Clear Politics' Carl Cannon, the Hotline's Reid Wilson, SiriusXM's Tim Farley from POTUS, Atlantic Online's Garance Franke-Ruta, C&E's Shane D'Aprile, a freelance booker for 60 Minutes, Good Morning America and other broadcast shows, and a host of local print and broadcast media. These connections should prove invaluable in the short and long term.

What: MediaMatch—One on One with Top Bookers, Hosts, Producers and Editors
When: 7 pm to 9 pm on Tuesday, Oct. 25, 2011
Where: Mary Graydon Center, American University (room information will be provided with your registration packet)
Cost: $75 (promo code "PF" gets you this discount from the regular $175 registration fee)

You should attend MediaMatch if you are an expert in your field, or have a compelling story worthy of media exposure.

Senior Booker for ABC's Good Morning America
An Emmy-winning booker for 60 Minutes and others
A regular Southern Living contributor
