Elevating Your Brand’s Media Presence with Nicole Pearl

“The responses that I had to my intro post inside of Entreprenista pales in comparison to all of these other networks that I’ve introduced myself in. I’ve met so many wonderful women there. And that is part of my marketing strategy, is that every week I have a consistent amount of time that I invest in these groups… Investing in those relationships has paid off immensely.”

When Nicole Pearl Kaplan joined Clubhouse, she was incensed by the advice ‘quote unquote experts’ were giving to small business owners, which led her to realize she had valuable expertise to offer. As a former national magazine beauty editor and seasoned TV beauty and style expert, Nicole has evolved into a PR and media strategist. Through her consultancy, she empowers small businesses and creatives, guiding them through the complexities of media engagement and brand elevation. Her two decades of experience combined with insider knowledge and strategic insights are pivotal in securing top-tier media coverage, enhancing brand visibility, and driving sales growth for her clients. Tune in and hear how Nicole went from regional TV segments to becoming an on-air expert for the Today Show, her early career experiences reminiscent of ‘The Devil Wears Prada,’ and her dedication to helping those who need assistance in gaining media visibility.
