Pitch And Shout

With

Amy Merrywest

& Olivia Petter

“I have lost count of the press opportunities I have got because of the Pitch and Shout community, from paid stories to being the quoted expert in a national paper to an all-expenses-paid trip to London for a photoshoot. But as well as the obvious ROI (I’ve been paid over £500 from stories I’ve been part of from this group), theres the subtler side – after being the featured money mindset expert for the sun I received 2 messages asking to start working with me and 3 requests for speaking opportunities, so the visibility and reach continues. Thank you, Pitch and Shout and thank you, Amy.”

Why Amy & Olivia Are the Media Advantage You Can’t Buy Anywhere Else

When you put a nationally connected journalist like Olivia Petter – whose work shapes conversations in Sunday Times Style, Vogue and The Independent – side by side with Amy Merrywest, a PR strategist who’s spent years helping real people get noticed by the press, you get something unique: the inside track from both sides of the media game.
Olivia knows exactly what makes editors say yes and what gets ignored – she’s the person deciding who gets featured, and she’s actively looking for new expert voices. Amy understands the reality of pitching yourself without an agency and how to turn your story or expertise into something journalists can actually use.
Here’s the truth: getting featured isn’t just about having a good story. Journalists want to work with people who are easy to contact, quick to respond, and know how to make their job easier – what the industry calls “media-friendly.” Most experts and business owners don’t realise this, but it’s the difference between being overlooked and being the go-to person for press opportunities.
Together, Amy and Olivia will show you exactly how to become that person. You’ll get honest, practical feedback on your ideas, help shaping your stories so they stand out and the chance to learn directly from someone who’s making editorial decisions every day.
It’s the fastest, most genuine way to become visible to the press – and to make sure journalists remember your name for all the right reasons.
