Speed pitching with... Jack Rear

We understand connecting with the press continues to be difficult, so we are bringing leading lifestyle journalists to you. Here’s what our speed pitching sessions can provide:

An exclusive chance to connect with journalists to get you or your client a cracking commission.

The sessions run for one hour, with five minutes for you to pitch directly to the journalist and an opportunity to network and discuss ideas with other PRs for the remainder.

This is what Jack is looking for: health and fitness, food and drink, family issues, gardening, cars, property and interiors, news features and a bit of UK travel. Basically, anything you might find yourself doing on a Saturday. Jack doesn't cover technology (unless in a lifestyle context), politics, entertainment or overseas travel.

You can find out more in our speed-pitching guide written by PR expert Emma Cripwell, travel journalist Richard Mellor and the Roxhill team. From advice for structuring an elevator pitch to guidance on how to follow-up after the session, our in-depth guide will prepare you to gain the most from this pitching experience and beyond.

If you still have any unanswered questions, take a look at our blog post where you'll find more information and FAQs about our sessions. See post here.

Your 5-minute time slot will be allocated closer to the day, as well as pitching, the hour is a great opportunity to network with other PRs before and after, so please feel free to join the Zoom room at the beginning of the session and stick around until the end.
