Do you find yourself stuck in a rut when it comes to putting yourself and your brand out there? Are you having trouble getting noticed? In this episode of The Marketing Channel’s Podcast, I welcome Maleeka Hollaway, Public Relations and Branding Strategy Expert and Founder of The OMG, a full-service PR and branding agency built upon unconventional methods of generating visibility and exposure.

“You have to get over yourself, stop thinking you have to be perfect, stop thinking you have to have all your ducks in a row. You do not, you just have to get out there and do the thing and trust that if you’re in alignment with what you’re supposed to be doing in business and who you’re supposed to be as a person, then things will work out. It’s a journey!”         - Maleeka Hollaway

Together we discuss powerful methods for getting results and achieving your wildest business goals through PR and branding strategies. Maleeka starts by telling us a bit about the types of people she works with, how she approaches them and what services are available for them to utilize at The OMG, including pitching, podcasts, interviews, and speaking engagements.

You’ll learn the value in outsourcing tasks to experts (because we all know we can’t do it all on our own!), creating a personal brand that tells your unique story, and putting yourself and your own marketing before your clients’. Maleeka divulges her most effective marketing tactics, breaks down what exactly public relations consists of and why it’s such a strong tactic for her brand.

“Treat people the way you want to be treated, speak to people the way you want to be spoken to. It’s the little things like that that I think we forget, especially in marketing.”           - Maleeka Hollaway

Curious about how to do PR yourself? It starts with being human. Maleeka lets us in on a few secrets of Social Proof Success, a subsidiary of The OMG, which offers actionable DIY public relations solutions for your business.
