Dan Janal's Summary

Imagine being featured on the front page of USA TODAY -- and then being able to double your speaking fees immediately just like PR LEADS client Patrick Snow of Creating Your Own Destiny. Imagine the website traffic and sales you can generate if only you can find a way to get more publicity so you can speak to millions for free!

Now, small business owners, solo PR firms, speakers, authors and entrepreneurs can get name-brand publicity tools and publicity coaching they can afford. I’m talking about the same top-tier publicity tools that major corporations use to get mega media placements – but you can get it at a fraction of their cost.

For example, my PRLEADS.com service puts you in touch with reporters who are writing articles and need to find expert sources like you! We're talking journalists from big name publications and media outlets like The Wall Street Journal, CNN, and Redbook.

My BullsEyePublicity.com media database lists more than 500,000 media professionals who may be eager to receive your press releases and pitch letters. It is the most up-to-date media list with the best price guaranteed.

My Guaranteed Press Release Service at PressReleaseSender.com gets your press release printed on 40 top websites or we will give you the money back. Our clients have been seen in places like Hoovers.com, Yahoo News, Reuters, BizJournals.com, MarketWatch, and many TV stations’ websites including Fox, NBC, and ABC!

With my 1-on-1 private publicity and internet marketing consulting at PublicityLeadstoProfits.com, you’ll get insights and answers to your publicity and internet marketing questions from a person the Los Angeles Times called “an Internet Marketing Expert.”

Please let me know if you have questions about how to do PR yourself using our great publicity tools that can be found at PRLEADSPlus.com. Connect with me today.

Publicity Coach and Marketing Consultant

Publicity Leads to Profits

2001 – Present (11 years)

As one of the founding fathers of Internet Publicity (USA Today calls me an Internet Marketing Pioneer), who was on the PR team that launched AOL, I know the ins and outs of getting more publicity online and offline. And, I’ll tell you right now that “publicity is not rocket science.” Good products, good books and good professionals can get the publicity they deserve to help make the world a better place. You just need some support.
That’s why I launched Bullseye Publicity to help authors, entrepreneurs, small businesses and public relations firms get access to information that was previously hard to find and expensive to buy.

If you are looking for a way to reach reporters who cover your industry so they can help you promote your product or service then using Bullseye Publicity is the fastest and easiest way. We give you access to over 500,000 media contacts. Now, you can get your own targeted list of reporters who cover your topic areas - and avoid the rest! We're all about reaching your target so you can hit a bullseye!
