We’ve got some exciting news that we just couldn’t wait to share with you–our parent company, Vocus has just announced that Peter Shankman is joining us full time as a VP and small business evangelist! For those of who don’t know, Peter Shankman is the creator of HARO (Help a Reporter Out), which is a service that reporters use to find sources for stories and you use to get free PR by pitching your stories to the queries posted by those reporters. HARO has had tremendous success and we’re proud to have it as part of our three-punch PR and marketing combo: Vocus, PRWeb and HARO.
In his new role with us, Peter will coach small and emerging businesses (just like you!) on ways they can accelerate growth by reaching more buyers. He will work with our team to develop new product ideas, lead webinars and live chats, speak on behalf of us at industry events and oversee a blog dedicated to helping small businesses grow.
