With the year wrapping up, it\u2019s time to strategize your PR game plan for 2023!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>One of the most powerful building blocks of a proactive strategy is an annual PR calendar.<\/strong> It outlines the year\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/prowly.com\/magazine\/pr-outreach-guide\/\">media outreach<\/a> work and breaks it into manageable monthly plans that guarantee your team is alerted early of upcoming, relevant PR opportunities that shouldn\u2019t be missed. Best of all, once an annual PR calendar is created for the team, <strong>it can be used year after year as a PR calendar template.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With this in mind, let\u2019s talk about why they\u2019re absolutely essential to your business, how to create a PR calendar with the help of your team, and how to ensure you and your team use it for maximum results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"#why\"><strong>Why a PR calendar is essential for your business<\/strong><\/a><\/li><li><strong><a href=\"#how\" data-type=\"internal\" data-id=\"#how\">How to create a PR calendar with your team<\/a><\/strong><\/li><li><strong><a href=\"#template\">How to use your PR calendar template effectively<\/a><\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"why\"><strong>Why a PR calendar is essential for your team<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The bottom line is this: a PR calendar will make it significantly more likely that your clients are mentioned in relevant print, online, and social media discussions that their customers are seeing throughout the year.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"purplebox\"><strong>A PR calendar supports your PR strategy with time-phased, monthly tasks that keep you and your team one step ahead of the editorial calendar, <\/strong>versus reacting to every holiday, national day, or seasonal theme that sneaks up without careful consideration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It puts laser-focus on the opportunities you\u2019ll pursue for each client, guiding your team past what can be an overwhelming amount of story ideas, news angles, and media call-outs during the year. And during quieter times in the year, it shines a spotlight on upcoming opportunities that your account managers should begin planning for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Two other important reasons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1. <strong>It can be used year in and year out<\/strong>. Once you and your team have invested the time to build one, you\u2019ll have a PR calendar template ready to go each year. In fact, consider it a living document and make a copy accessible and editable by your entire team. If new opportunities pop up during the year, or if someone learns of an opportunity the team missed, just add it to the PR calendar template so you won\u2019t miss it again the following year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. It can \u201cautomate\u201d your team\u2019s monthly work<\/strong>. A PR calendar is especially powerful when used in conjunction with PR software like Prowly. With <a href=\"https:\/\/prowly.com\/magazine\/pr-tools-guide\/\">PR tools<\/a> in place, the PR calendar becomes a launching pad that alerts your team to kick off the next steps, like creating custom media contact lists, drafting email pitches, and building online newsrooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/prowly.com\/magazine\/app\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Prowly-PR-Software-Media-List-1024x536.png\" alt=\"Example of a media list created in Prowly\" class=\"wp-image-16784\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/prowly.com\/\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" rel=\"external noopener noreferrer\">TRY PROWLY FOR FREE<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, <strong>pairing a PR calendar with <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/prowly.com\/magazine\/pr-automation-vs-pr-tasks\/\"><strong>PR automation software<\/strong><\/a><strong> will create a structured monthly project regimen that will guide your team through easy, repeatable steps and save <\/strong><strong><em>you<\/em><\/strong><strong> valuable project management time.<\/strong> It allows you to step back and focus on bigger agency priorities like client prospecting, hiring, and revenue planning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how\"><br><strong>How to create a PR calendar with your team<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As with the development of most agency tools, it\u2019s best to bring in your team early so they feel ownership in this document. <strong>Start with a team brainstorming session<\/strong>, where your team\u2019s cumulative PR experience will allow the group to list off the most recognized, recurring annual PR themes from the top of mind.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Advise everyone to then get creative and jot down all holidays, national days, and familiar annual themes they can think of<\/strong>, like back to school, spring break, New Year\u2019s resolutions, and Black Friday. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Think specifically <\/em>about your clients\u2019 industries too, and include relevant industry gatherings like conferences and speaking engagements. <em>Think big <\/em>and don\u2019t overlook more general themes around seasonal business insights like CEO advice for the New Year or heading into Q4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"purplebox\">There are plenty of great <a href=\"https:\/\/www.holidayscalendar.com\/\">holiday calendars<\/a> shared online for you to use as a starting point. A quick Google search will get one quickly into your hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Next, delegate someone to research more specific opportunities, or share an online draft document with your team that everyone can add to.<\/strong> The setup for this can be very simple: many agencies rely on the flexibility of Excel or Google Sheets for building these, so they can be accessed by the entire team and easily copied and customized afterward to create client-specific PR calendars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At this stage, <strong>don\u2019t forget to research where your clients\u2019 competitors were mentioned the following year<\/strong>, and which annual events and themes they covered on their social media platforms. Leverage <em>their<\/em> research and past successes to learn of new opportunities, and make note of the editors and influencers who wrote about them. They should be interested in your client too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, <strong>some agencies like to include industry awards opportunities on their PR calendar to keep those application and deadline dates close at hand.<\/strong> In general, you can see this project as an opportunity to integrate multiple agency planning goals. In fact, a sidebar with a list of evergreen content is useful here too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To recap, consider the following topics for your PR calendar template:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><br><strong>General topics<\/strong> for your PR calendar<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Holidays like New Year\u2019s Day and Thanksgiving<\/li><li>National holidays like National Cuddle Up Day and National Pet Day<\/li><li>Seasonal themes like New Year\u2019s resolutions, spring break, and summer vacation<\/li><li>CEO business expert themes, like annual strategy planning, motivational quarterly kick-off practices, seasonal hiring tips and ideas for team-favorite summer and holiday gatherings<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><br><strong>Client-specific topics for your PR calendar<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Client product launch dates<\/li><li>Industry-specific editorial themes like Fashion Weeks, winter beauty products, and major tech events<\/li><li>Industry conferences<\/li><li>Planned speaking engagements<\/li><li>Industry award announcements<\/li><li>Themes and holidays where the competition has been covered in the past<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong>Once your PR calendar has all news themes marked on the calendar, you\u2019re halfway done! <\/strong>The next step is to calculate how many weeks <em>prior<\/em> to each event you should reach out to relevant editors.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Add in these dates, remembering that print publications will have longer lead times of 4-6 months versus the 1-2 months needed for online media outlets. This is where color-coding your calendar comes in extra handy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><br><strong>PR calendar template<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>CLIENT:<\/strong> Bloomatic (Clothing brand \/ Fashion, lifestyle topics)<br><strong>ACCOUNT MANAGER:<\/strong> Lindsay Turner<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-regular\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>MONTH<\/strong> <strong>\/ WEEK<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>IMPORTANT<\/strong> <strong>DATES<\/strong><\/td><td><strong><strong>KEY TOPICS \/ WHAT TO PITCH<\/strong><\/strong><\/td><td><strong><strong>MEDIA LISTS<\/strong><\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>January \/ I<\/td><td><em>1.01 New Year\u2019s Day<\/em><\/td><td><strong>Resolutions<\/strong> \/ Start the new year in style - fashion fundamentals&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/td><td>\u2713 <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Fashion journalists - US<\/span><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>January \/ II<\/td><td><em>9.01 Golden Globe Awards<\/em><\/td><td><strong>Valentine\u2019s Day <\/strong>\/ Gift ideas for her<\/td><td>\u2713 <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Gift guides<\/span><br>\u2713 <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Lifestyle editors - US<\/span><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>January \/ III<\/td><td><em>19.01 Museum Selfie Day<\/em><\/td><td><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\"><strong>Vacation &amp; Travel<\/strong> \/ Travel clothing essentials<\/span><\/td><td>To do<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>January \/ IV<\/td><td><em>24.01 New website launch<\/em><\/td><td><strong>Mardi Gras<\/strong> \/ New collection inspired by a boho chic look<\/td><td>To do<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>COLOR CODE:<\/strong> Online outlets, <span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\">Print publications<\/span><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>If you really want to go the extra mile (and we know you do!), include not only the pitch start dates but the media contact list creation dates. <strong>Again, here is where having in-house PR automation software is indispensable.<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When your team member is prompted by the PR calendar to create the appropriate media contact list, they can build one quickly around industries and topics and even build an online newsroom that reflects the current press campaign.
