BONUS EPISODE: PR Success Story: This Morning, a Book Launch and Building Authority as the Industry Go-To with Clinical Psychologist Dr Anna Colton
Dr Anna Colton is a leading clinical psychologist, author, podcaster, media consultant and This Morning regular. She's also been one of Pippa's 1-2-1 Accelerator clients. In this conversation PR expert Pippa Goulden and Dr Anna look at what it takes to build authority in your field - the messy bits, the wobbles and why saying yes before you're ready is the only way forward. What we discuss: Why sending the fucking email (even with zero expectations) opens doors you can't imagine How Dr Anna went from ambivalent NHS psychologist to regular This Morning expert via drama school The truth about building authority: it's incremental, it's uncomfortable, and it compounds Why being responsive beats being perfect every single time What actually happens when you stop treating PR as optional and bake it into your business strategy The wobbles successful people have (spoiler: they're constant) and why they keep going anyway Book a discovery call for the 1-2-1 Accelerator (https://calendly.com/theprset/discovery-call) or find out more about it here (https://www.theprset.com/Authority-accelerator) and my DIY PR Membership here (https://www.theprset.com/DIY-Membership) If it's easier for you to listen to these episodes from where you usually access your Podcasts, go ahead and listen via these links Apple (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/get-known-the-private-podcast/id1896689883) Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/show/033hd8hq5PFoaHpziKlAH3)

Ep 5: The Only Thing Left Is To Do It
Your plan to turn everything you've learned into action This is it: the last of the five core episodes, and the one where everything comes together. Pippa pulls the key lesson from each of the previous four episodes into one clear plan, shows what actually changes in a business when this work is done properly (in several very different shapes), and gets honest about her own numbers, including the 40% revenue growth that came directly from finally sending one email she'd sat on for three and a half years. Then she gives you the exact five steps to take this week, no overthinking required, plus a heads up on exactly what's going to try and stop you from doing it. In this episode: The one key takeaway from each of the first four episodes, pulled together What changes in a business when this work compounds; discovery calls, content, pricing power Real examples across very different businesses: Priya, Carly, and a Daily Telegraph feature that led to national TV Pippa's own numbers: 40% revenue growth, hitting her target four months early, her best quarter ever Why you should start small, not with the biggest opportunity on your list The exact five-step plan to send your next pitch this week What to do when you don't know who to pitch to, or you're second-guessing whether it's good enough Ready to build this properly, with someone in your corner?

Ep 4: So Why Haven't You Sent It Yet? The mindset piece that makes all the difference
You know you could do that talk. You know you'd be brilliant on that podcast. And you've watched someone with less experience than you get the opportunity anyway. In this episode, Pippa gets honest about the real reason established founders sit on pitches for months, sometimes years - and it's not what you think. It's not about whether you're good enough. It's about who you think you have to be before you're allowed to put yourself forward. Pippa shares the speaking opportunity she sat on for three and a half years (and what actually happened when she finally sent the email), why gatekeepers need you more than you think, and real examples of what happens the moment founders like Nicola and Emma stop waiting for permission. In this episode: Why this was never a confidence problem and what it actually is The gatekeeper myth: why pitching yourself isn't asking for a favour Pippa's own three-and-a-half-year story What changed for Nicola and Emma the moment they stopped sitting on it Why confidence isn't the ticket in - it's what you get handed after Ready to stop sitting on it?

Ep 2: The Get Known Authority Ecosystem: how it works in practice
In this episode, Pippa introduces the framework that underpins everything to build authority in your business: the Get Known Authority Ecosystem. We cover: Why PR is about so much more than press coverage The three pillars: Internal Authority, External Authority and Amplification What each pillar includes and why all three need to work together What a real working authority ecosystem looks like The one thing most founders forget that makes everything else work harder This is the article on Authority over Visibility that I generated in Start-Ups as a strategic part of my PR plan mentioned in the episode: Have a read here (https://startupsmagazine.co.uk/article-why-founders-need-prioritise-authority-over-visibility-2026) If it's easier for you to listen to these episodes from where you usually access your Podcasts, go ahead and listen via these links Apple (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/get-known-the-private-podcast/id1896689883) Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/show/033hd8hq5PFoaHpziKlAH3) Find out more about my 1-2-1 Accelerator here (https://www.theprset.com/Authority-accelerator) Book a discovery call with me here (https://calendly.com/theprset/discovery-call) Find out more about my DIY PR membership here (https://www.theprset.com/DIY-Membership)

Ep 1: You’re already doing it (you just don’t realise it yet)
Most established founders think PR isn't for them. Or they've tried it, it didn't work, and they've moved on. This episode is going to change that. In this first episode, Pippa makes the case that you're probably already doing PR, you just haven't been shown how to recognise it, name it or make it work hard enough for you. We cover: What PR actually is, and why it's nothing like what most people think The PR activities you're probably already doing without realising Why amplification is the piece most founders forget and where the real opportunity is The authority gap - what your potential clients are looking for before they buy Why visibility alone isn't enough anymore and what to do instead If it's easier for you to listen to these episodes from where you usually access your Podcasts, go ahead and listen via these links Apple (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/get-known-the-private-podcast/id1896689883) Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/show/033hd8hq5PFoaHpziKlAH3) Find out more about my 1-2-1 Accelerator here (https://www.theprset.com/Authority-accelerator) Book a discovery call with me here (https://calendly.com/theprset/discovery-call) Find out more about my DIY PR membership here (https://www.theprset.com/DIY-Membership)
