You can have it all, just not at the same time, or so it seems.
Your SEO/AIO expert is amazing but your writing team doesn’t have the time to create all the needed content nor create all the content and landing pages, even with AI help.
Your social media team has created comprehensive promotional campaigns but is falling behind on curating the objective content necessary to please your target audiences.

With massive cyberattacks on organizations and states, cyber security is one of the hottest news topics. Every day, a new cybersecurity startup proclaims it will solve those challenges, further crowding an already congested market.
This begs the question: How can cybersecurity companies, with proven innovations on offer, break through the logjam to get the media recognition they deserve?

Once upon a time, I covered trade shows as a market analyst for a major consumer publication. Shortly thereafter I flipped to the other side of the desk and ended up with a press conference on one side of the Consumer Electronics Show and a photo shoot clear across the exhibition hall. Let’s just say that roller skates were very much on my mind by the time I finished my Mrs. Doubtfire dash back and forth across the crowded exhibit halls.
I empathize with journalists who have been given the immense task of covering trade shows, scouting for new trends, and trying to maintain relationships with industry leaders. That is why when I have a client exhibiting, I try to be a resource to media covering the show by helping them identify my clients’ product introductions long before the show, setting up interviews or, better still, pre-show interviews to save journalist’s precious time, jet-lagged exhaustion, and, especially, their shoe leather.
Here are some pointers for being a resource to media at your next trade show:

Getting ready for a trade show can be overwhelming, even for those of us who are regular exhibitors. Early in my career, I was at a show every fifth week, which made life quite busy for a year or two. To make it simple for all of us, here's a quick and easy calendar of activities you need to keep in mind.

Recently, I spoke with a marketer who had used ChatGPT to revise some content he created; it initially performed in its "regular" way - writing the idea clearly, but being quite redundant. Of course, he had to tweak the prompt to ask it to vary the word choice. Once it did that, it incorrectly stated that the product did X and Y as a single feature. He had then had to "teach it" that those were two separate activities until it provided decent results.
What if he were in a hurry or didn't know enough about the product to understand that the AI created an error that wasn't there before?
