Sharing Appearances Through Email Campaigns

Email is a powerful tool for staying connected with your clients and prospects. By regularly sharing your media appearances, you keep your audience informed and engaged. Here’s how Gavin Lira suggests structuring your emails for maximum impact:

Subject: “[Recipient’s Name], look where we just got featured”

Body:

SMS messages are less frequent but more immediate and personal. Use SMS to highlight your biggest achievements, ensuring that your message gets noticed quickly. Gavin Lira recommends structuring your SMS messages like this:

The Empathy Firm’s Approach: A Blueprint for Success
