Write Press Releases
I can tell you that iHeart is, hands down, the BEST at sending out press releases for everything that they do. The other companies send out releases but they’re are often poorly formatted to duplicate or they are without images and they are rare. Black jocks RARELY get press for their promotions and if you are the go-to person or that that could be a great side gig income. Each radio corporation should be sending out a press release every time a person is promoted or hired and MOST don’t do it or RARELY do it.
If you can write press releases, I would approach outside companies as a freelancer and target urban brands in the industry. I know of several freelancers who do press releases for the major corporations who get a lot of work and none of them, that I know of, are black.
