Welcome to the Thunder Founder Newsletter Issue #14!
As a startup founder, it can be frustrating to feel like you're shouting into the void. You've poured your heart and soul into your product, and you know it could make a real difference in people's lives. But no matter how hard you try, it seems like no one is paying attention.
The truth is, getting attention as a startup is incredibly difficult. There are thousands of other companies out there, all vying for the same slice of the market. And in today's hyper-connected world, consumers are bombarded with advertising and marketing messages at every turn. It can be hard to cut through the noise and make your voice heard.
That's why good PR is so important. Public relations is all about creating a positive image for your company and getting your message in front of the right people. Whether it's through media coverage, influencer partnerships, or social media campaigns, PR can help you build buzz and generate interest in your product.
But how do you do it? How do you get people to listen and pay attention to your startup?
