Startup Public Relations: 5 Things to Know

What does it take to do startup public relations right? Here are five tips from Hugh Taylor, CEO of Comms Factory, who has done PR for startups backed by such major venture funds as Draper Fisher Jurvetson and Redpoint Ventures. In this video, Taylor talks about the value of waiting until you’re ready, building your media list, thinking carefully about hiring an agency, building off of others’ momentum and the wisdom of applying the “fail fast” ethos to the still traditional world of media relations.

Comms Factory has worked with hundreds of startups on press release writing and other public relations services.
