Most conferences have submission forms, but typically 6+ months in advance. Case studies and client brand names have greater likelihood of getting selected. In your submission include the key points the audience will learn from you, the more unique and actionable the better.

While a speaking presence can get you picked up for article interviews, your company PR/comms team would have greater success through press connections.

If your agency, holding company or brand is a sponsor of the conference, chances are (not coincidentally) they’ll have multiple people speaking on panels. So it’s a question of communicating your interest to your internal contacts.

Speak to your agency's PR team. Start posting original, thoughtful stuff on LinkedIn and Twitter, so you begin to hone your point of view. And saving the obvious for last, contribute to some groundbreaking work or agency initiative. There's no shortage of opinionated strategists, but there is always space for the new perspective of someone who is doing interesting work.

One thing to note is that some agencies have guidelines about who can talk to the press, etc. So as others mentioned, check in with your PR team or boss. I’ve gotten my hand slapped for talking to press. Although someone higher up said great work when the article came out. So trumped what my boss thought. 🤷‍♀️

I can’t remember the name of it, but there’s a pr email listserv that sends out a daily email looking for experts in fields that hundreds of journalists are writing various stories about. Find that, subscribe, and submit yourself when relevant topics come up.

My AD coworker (not currently my partner) just got hired at a new agency and wants to bring me along as his writer. I'd love to join. He told the recruiter at that agency about me and sent my book. I also have another former coworker (creative) who put in a good word for me.

Should I reach out to the recruiter, too? Or is that overkill after two recos? I don't want to be bothersome. But I do want to show interest..

This all happened on Friday, if that matters. Thanks!
