How to Launch a Targeted PR Campaign
Media begets media; that’s the name of the game.  So if you’re stuck focusing strictly on the media home runs, rethink your strategy.  Don’t limit your pitches to the national media outlets; there’s a huge media world out there.  Broaden your approach.  Broaden the media bull’s-eye you’re targeting.

The Capitalist With A Heart: The Early Years Of Brett Wilson
When Brett Wilson was in university, he persuaded a local dancer to re-enact Lady Godiva’s infamous horseback ride across campus as a stunt. Campus feminists were none too pleased, but they would be proud of Wilson today. The self-described “capitalist with a heart” has made a name for himself not only as the “nice” Dragon on CBC’s Dragon’s Den, but also as a savvy businessman, and a generous and innovative philanthropist who divides his time among his many passions in life.

Lesson #2: “I watch and learn. And I’m still watching and learning.”
Armed with both a Bachelor of Engineering and an MBA, Wilson has taken his fair share of educational courses, but the one he found the most valuable was one called “Consumer and Buyer Behaviour”. “It helped me understand things like product differentiation,” says Wilson, “how to make marketing memorable; advertising; the impact of brand logo and positioning, and post-purchase dissonance.”
Lesson #3: “Think outside the job market”
As a student at the University of Saskatchewan, Wilson took a life-changing outdoor survival skills training course in western Canada. It was as far removed from the insides of his business school classrooms as he could get, but today Wilson considers it nonetheless just as important for his business success.

Lesson #4: “My hope is to the see the benefits of my labour spread out in the community”
Perhaps it is the fact that his mother was a social worker who opened Wilson’s childhood house to anyone that needed it. Or, perhaps it is the fact that he survived an advanced case of prostate cancer in his early 40s. Whatever the reason, Wilson has committed much of his adult life to giving away much of the money he has worked so hard to make to a wide range of charities.

The Dragon Makes Nice: How Wilson Made His Money – And Then Gave It Away
In 1997, before Wilson had become something of a household name thanks to his appearance on CBC’s Dragon’s Den, he had already been ranked one of Canada’s Top 40 Under 40. Now in his 50’s, Wilson could surely sweep the title for this decade as well. How did this small town Prairie boy make it in the world of big business – and with a big heart to match?
