8 Second PR selected as Textbook for California State University San Bernardino PR Writing Class by Instructor this Fall 2019

SANTA MONICA, Calif., Sept. 17, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- To provide public relations students with real-life advice tips, Goody PR Founder Liz H Kelly's 8-Second PR: Energize Your Story for Ultimate Media Success! will be used as the main textbook for California State University San Bernardino's COMM 344 Public Relations Communication class taught by Full Time Lecturer Jessica Block Nerren starting September 20, 2019. 8-Second PR has been called a "New Crash Course in PR" by readers, and includes a proven 8-step story energizer process, case studies and PR Secrets that most media agencies would never share.

"After reading 8-Second PR, I decided to adopt it as our primary textbook for our PR writing class this fall. I think Liz Kelly has really gotten to the heart of what I want my students to take away from our studies together with practical examples, and I am excited to use it," explained Jessica Block Nerren.

Nerren describes her 344 COMM class as "an intermediate course in public relations that applies PR theory and principles through development of PR production skills, message construction and delivery" that includes writing assignments, workshops and a final paper over 10 weeks. Kelly has also been invited to be a guest speaker in October for this class.

8-Second PR's how-to guide is a great match for Nerren's PR writing course. The book covers how to develop a WOW Story for personal and business brands, write compelling content (press releases, pitches, blogs and books), identify the right media to pitch, write timely pitch emails that connect with reporters, book earned media (TV, print and radio), write interview talking points, follow-up and measure publicity results.

With 15 years of marketing and public relations experience and booking thousands of earned media interviews, Kelly's book uncovers what works best, plus lessons learned. Coverage for Goody PR clients has included interviews on the TODAY Show, CNN, FOX News, CBS Health Watch, NPR, and in The Chicago Tribune, The Wall Street Journal, Forbes, Entrepreneur, Health, Huffington Post, Adweek, Deadline, and many local TV news stations from coast-to-coast.

And because every PR firm must now offer digital marketing services, 8-Second PR's Chapter 2: How to Dominate Your Digital Bank to Increase Word-Of-Mouth Marketing, provides tips for how to protect and amplify your brand online.

In addition to using 8-Second PR as the textbook, Nerren will show videos to students from Kelly's interactive online courses on Teachable.
