Cheryl Wicker, PR expert, speaker, agency owner and
entertainment professional has branched out to use her expertise and knowledge
gained in the industry to launch a new coaching program for professionals who
want to learn to effectively do their own publicity. This “hands-on” solution
is perfect for those on a tight budget, or for people who simply prefer to do
their own marketing. Using virtual workshops and coaching calls to walk clients
through the process, Wicker created “Amplify: How to Get Your Message HeardThrough Free Media Exposure” to teach them how to do their own PR during a 6
week program. A free educational webinar based on the program is currently
available to those wanting to learn more: FreeMediaExposure.com.
Equally comfortable both in front of and behind the camera (‘Flag
of My Father,’ ‘Finding Normal,’ and ‘God’s Not Dead.’), plus with additional
experience as a multi-media journalist and working at Howard Publishing (now Howard Books with
Simon & Schuster), Wicker is a multi-talented creative freelancer,
utilizing communication, promotion, organizational and networking skills in a
variety of roles: TV/film producer, casting director, actress, publicist, host
of “Christian Movie Connect” and Media Correspondent for several events and
conferences. As she has become more in demand as a speaker due to her
experience in PR, people turned to her for advice with increasing frequency. “My life mission is to help people of purpose
impact the culture through media. However, I have to combine the practicalities
of running a business with my mission to help others reach the world with a
message that matters,” explains Wicker. “My solution is to help equip and
empower people with the necessary tools and knowledge required to do their own
PR at a fraction of the cost.”
The Amplify virtual coaching program created by Wicker
teaches the ABC’s of DIY PR for both those new to marketing, as well as those
who have experience. Wicker teaches
“journalist-focused PR” to help those enrolled in her program to craft a press
release that is more likely to capture the interest of journalists who receive
numerous pitches daily. Participants in the Amplify program will have access to downloadable material and videos that are used during the training.
Wicker will be speaking next at the Churches Making Movies Film Festival, a three day event of movie screenings, insightful workshops, and
family-friendlyactivities in Elizabeth, New Jersey. Wicker will be leading a
workshop on Oct 8th at 10:15am. Her topic, “The Indie's Guide to DIY
Film Marketing,” will include teaching you some of the tricks of the trade
she uses in her own agency. She will also show you how to hire and manage your
own freelance team.
Other workshop leaders include screenwriter Sean Paul Murphy and Isaac Hernandez, Vice President of Parables TV. However, the festivities start Oct 7 with a Red Carpet event with host actress Jenn Gotzon when director Dallas Jenkins will present a Sneak Peek Red Carpet Screening of his eagerly anticipated film, “The Resurrection of Gavin Stone.” Keynote Speaker for the evening will be Mrs. Austen Williams.
