Chicago (PRWEB) April 10, 2008 -- As the economic downturn continues to affect businesses nationwide, a South Suburban Chicago-based company is helping business owners and non-profit organizations reach their clients without the high cost of slick marketing and advertising campaigns. Beginning Wednesday, April 16th Momentum Media Group will host a five-part teleseminar series on how to get free publicity for your business. The seminar will cover everything from the difference between publicity and advertising to how to establish a crisis communication plan.

The convenient teleseminar format allows people from anywhere in the country to participate.

Monique Caradine, the organizer of the event noted that the downward spiral of the nation's economy led her to put the teleseminar together. "In these times 'discretionary' budgets for things like publicity, marketing and advertising are the first to go, even though these are the keys to keeping business flowing. That's why I decided to bring together some of the nation's most respected publicity professionals to help small businesses maintain their visibility in the media, without spending a lot of money," she said.

Caradine said participants will learn how to write their own news releases, create a publicity plan and even how to conduct media interviews. They will also receive a copy of her new E-book "How to Make Your Story Irresistible to the Media." Additionally, there will be a bonus session on how small businesses and organizations can build strong brands that the media and potential clients will be drawn to.
