How do you get the best out of your publisher—and where should you focus your own efforts? This insider-led session breaks down how publicity really works from both sides: what your publisher is doing and why, how to collaborate more effectively, and where author-led activity can genuinely add value. Practical, strategic and grounded in industry reality, it will help you avoid wasted effort and focus on what really drives coverage.
 
By the end of this session, you will:
Understand how in-house publicity teams prioritise and make decisions
Know how to collaborate with your publicist to maximise opportunities
Identify where your own efforts can meaningfully support publisher activity
Learn what journalists and producers will respond to
Focus your time on publicity actions that lead to real coverage
