After more than forty years as an award-winning television news reporter, Bruce Gordon is uniquely qualified to teach you what you need to know about successfully competing in a crowded media space. Gordon Media Solutions offers an a la carte menu of services that teaches you to do for yourself, much of what you might (over?)pay a big public relations firm to do for you.

We will teach you:

  • How a newsroom works and why that’s important. (Hint: Movies and TV shows almost always get their portrayals wrong.)

  • How to realistically sell your story, message and/or expertise, and to whom. (Hint: The pitcher can be as important as the pitch.)

  • How to react when you get a response, and why the right response can have long-lasting benefits. (Hint: In the news business, speed thrills.)

  • How to effectively deliver your message yourself - no spokesperson needed.

Our training sessions are tailored to your message, business and/or expertise, and include suggested pitches to specific reporters and media outlets. Sessions are designed and conducted by Bruce Gordon, drawing on his many years of experience.

To be clear, Gordon Media Solutions is not designed to be a full-service PR firm. Rather, we offer most of the benefits of that service for a cost that’s within the budget of anyone looking to expand their media impact.
