Remote Communications Training Solutions

Remote interviews are an integral part of nearly every newsroom’s toolkit. That makes it imperative for your spokespeople to perform flawlessly when meeting the media from afar.

What steps should your company take to maximize your odds for success during remote interviews with the press? The emphasis remains on the core principles common to any meaningful program:

• Message development, refinement, and discipline
• Simulated interviews that replicate the real thing
• A sustained program that encourages professional development over time

Given newsroom cost-cutting proclivities, the ease of beaming in distant guests, and other factors, remote interviews on services like Zoom are now a part of everyday media relations life.

What does that mean to you? Your company needs a long-term strategy for remote exchanges.

Take a look at these remote solutions:

• Reporter’s Roundup, the telephone or video interview that results in a realistic news article.
• Express Training, the one-hour clinic that covers the nuts and bolts of how to deal with reporters.
