Publicity
Being a journalist and having a passion for interesting stories, Carly Lubicz writes media releases that appeal to news organisations.
With newsrooms having to operate with fewer and fewer staff, it's important to present your newsworthy information in a way that can be easily used by the print and broadcast media, therefore gaining you maximum exposure.

The Yellow Pages North Queensland Small Business & Franchise Expo was launched in Townsville in March 2011. It was an event-first for the north and one of the largest regional business expos in Australia. Calculated Media assisted to promote the event in the lead-up, achieving coverage locally in the Townsville Bulletin, Townsville Sun, Channel 7 and ABC North Queensland, but also further afield in regional dailies like the Mackay Daily Mercury and business magazine Queensland Business Acumen. We are also assisting again with the next event in 2013.
