PUBLIC RELATIONS

In this economy, small business owners have saved money the DIY way, doing many things for themselves, especially public relations. Problem is, many of these owners are not in the PR business. Andy Flynn, a PR professional and small business owner, helps people save money by teaching them the basics of PR.

Chambers of commerce: Save money and host a PR workshop for your members. Choose here.

MUSEUMS

The Adirondack Museum receives thousands of dollars in free publicity each year, plus an annual donation to its collection improvement fund. Your museum can achieve the same success through a publicity partnership with an author and publisher, using the Adirondack Attic History Project as a model.

SELF-PUBLISHING

Have a manuscript? Tired of looking for a publisher? Do it yourself! Saranac Lake author Andy Flynn did, and he can show you how to publish your own books using the Adirondack Attic History Project model. He published five books in five years without going broke. You can, too!
