Tips on promoting your event.
1. We ask that you help us to get the word out about Mason Speakers.
Please include the following on any PR material ( print, web or
email)
This lecture is made possible in part by George
Mason University's Mason Speakers program, "Connecting the University
with the Community". For information on how to book a speaker visit
http://communityrelations.gmu.edu/speakersbureau.
2. We will provide you with a short biography and if possible, a
photograph of your speaker as soon as the date and time are confirmed
so that you can start promoting your event in a timely manner.
3. Newspapers -- is your event open to the public? If so you might
want to consider using the press to your advantage. Consider submitting
a press release to the Calendar section of your local newspaper.
4. Newsletters-- If your organization has a newsletter, be sure
to plan your event far enough in advance so you can make the deadline
and promote the Mason Speakers event. We can often send you a photo
of the speaker to use.
5. Bulletin Boards and Flyers-- Do you have a way of converting
a press announcement into a simple flyer?
6. Email Lists-- Many organizations have developed email lists or
listservs to communicate with members. You might take advantage
of this electronic form of announcing your program.
