PR Masterclass with Natasha Hawkrigg
2025-10-01 09:30 - 10:30 | On Zoom, Devon, United Kingdom
PR Masterclass featuring Natasha Hawkrigg
Is your business Devon’s best-kept secret? Let’s change that.
If you’ve ever wondered why your social media posts aren’t converting into credibility, or how other local businesses keep popping up in the press, this is the online masterclass you can’t afford to miss.
Join PR and Marketing Strategist Natasha Hawkrigg (BA, MSc) for an empowering, myth-busting session on Zoom that will show you exactly how to get the media spotlight on your business, without needing a big budget or a celebrity contact list.
With years of experience helping small businesses shine in both local and national media, Natasha brings a practical, relatable approach to PR. She knows what journalists want (and what makes them hit delete), and she’ll help you craft the kind of stories the media love to feature.
🔎 In this online session, you’ll learn how to:

Bridge the credibility gap that social media alone can’t fill

Identify your unique PR angles – even if you think you’re “not that interesting” (spoiler: you are)

Pitch with confidence to local journalists, influencers and event organisers

Get featured in print, online, on stage or in local awards

Build real relationships with media contacts who want to hear from you

Create a simple, repeatable PR routine that fits around your life and business

Whether you’re launching something new, growing your client base, or simply ready to stop being Devon’s best-kept secret – this masterclass will give you the confidence and know-how to get seen, heard and remembered.
✨ It’s time to stop hiding and start shining.
Book your spot now and take your place as the go-to expert in your industry.

Proceeds from this masterclass will go to the DWIB Charity of the Year: Devon Rape Crisis and Sexual Abuse Services. Please consider making an extra donation to them at their website. (Natasha is kindly providing her expertise free of charge.)
