Great Escape Radio Episode #25: Securing that press trip! “This travel writing life of mine has snowballed into an amazing adventure. I’m living it and even I can’t believe how amazing it is sometimes.” – Terri Marshall For more about how you can get started with travel writing today, visit: www.greatescapepublishing.com/travelwriting. This week on Great Escape Radio, host Jody Mayberry talks with travel writer, Terri Marshall, about how to secure FAM, or press trips. Great Escape Publishing Director, Lori Allen introduces us to Terri… “First of all let me say I love Terri. She is a genuine nice person. I love that she loves adventure and she’s up for anything. Terri has done everything from harvesting cacao in Belize to driving a reindeer sleigh in Norway. She’s taken her kids and even her grandkids on some of her press trips.” Terri explains what a FAM trip is… “FAM stands for familiarization which basically means that a public relations firm or tourism representative will organize a trip for travel writers and bloggers that showcases their destination. Sometimes these are group trips and other times they are individual trips.” While the common perception is that you have to have a lot of articles published and be a well-known travel writer to get invited on a press trip, Terri says that is changing. “Today FAM trips are often comprised of a blend of traditional journalists, bloggers and social media influencers.” Terri shares how she landed her first FAM trip locally, with just two articles published and offers some tips for securing FAM trip invitations… “It’s really about networking and building a reputation within the travel writing industry as someone who is serious about writing. You typically start with complimentary meals or passes to attractions and build from there.” When Terri started out she had a full-time career as a tax accountant and could only accept FAM trips on weekends or when she had vacation time. Now that she’s writing full-time and has years of experience, she can be more selective about which trips she accepts and often has press trips designed specifically for her in locations all over the world. Terri’s best tip for continuing to receive FAM trip invitations… “Remember you are not on vacation. You are on the trip to cover a destination. Take notes, photos and always behave professionally.” Press play for more about Terri’s experiences on this week’s episode of Great Escape Radio.

Great Escape Radio Podcast #24: Times have changed “All of your struggles are not forever, they’re just for now.” Lori Allen If you’d like to learn more about Great Escape Publishing’s programs, Lori suggests starting with the travel writing program. You can find more information and a video to see if travel writing is right for you here: www.greatescapepublishing.com/start/travelwriting. This week host, Jody Mayberry and Great Escape Publishing Director, Lori Allen, talk more about last episode’s interview with Jeff Kontur and the concept of figuring out what works for you. Lori shares with us more about the DC Social Summit where she met Jeff Kontur… “The idea behind the DC Area Social was to invite people in the area to come in and meet us and learn about our events and products and then to have drinks and socialize. We’ve found that our most successful members are the ones who have formed networks with other writers and photographers.” Since Great Escape Publishing began, Lori has noted trends that come and go. In the past… Travel writers and photographers were separate It wasn’t acceptable for you to pursue your passion – you were expected to have a real job Great Escape Publishing workshops gave attendees access to the professional and inside info from editors Today… Travel writers are taking photos and photographers are writing about travel Now, it is acceptable to follow your passions instead of having a “real job” Great Escape Publishing workshops still give attendees access to the professionals and inside info from the editors, but there is a new trend – an added benefit: networking among the attendees “Networking is HUGE now. We noticed this trend starting after the 2011 travel workshop in Chicago when a group of women set up a Facebook group to stay connected with other attendees for encouragement, inspiration and to share ideas. Patti Morrow and Terri Marshall were in that initial group and look at them now, they’ve got hundreds of bylines. Patti quit her job as a lobbyist, Terri quit her job as a tax accountant and they are both writing full-time.” In Podcast #23, Jeff Kontur talked about his “Italian pasta concept of experimentation,” which involves throwing a bunch of stuff at the wall and seeing what sticks. For him, most everything has stuck… Lori’s take on that – “It’s a real testament to the times that we’re in right now. Previously we didn’t have all these opportunities, you had to pick something. But that’s changing and evolving over time. Now, you can try all kinds of things and then decide what works for you.” Most importantly… Follow your heart Follow what is the most fun for you to do Or go forward with all of your options and allow yourself to be multifaceted If something doesn’t work, just go back to something else. If you’d like to learn more about Great Escape Publishing’s programs, Lori suggests starting with the travel writing program.

Podcast #18: The Journey to 100 Bylines “We have a big beautiful world out there. If you can, go experience it. If you can’t, live it through my stories.” – Noreen Kompanik For more information on how you can find success with travel writing, like Noreen, check out the Travel Writer's Café, here: www.greatescapepublishing.com/start/cafe. On this week’s episode, you’ll hear from Great Escape Publishing travel writing success story – Noreen Kompanik, and how she’s had more than 100 articles published in less than two years. Noreen attended the Ultimate Travel Writer’s Workshop in San Diego in 2014. She is a career nurse and was looking for something to transition into when she retires. She went as the guest of a friend who talked her into attending. She knew on day one that she had found something she could transition into as a second career. She knew the instructors were talking to her. The opportunity to be able to travel and write stories about that travel was something that just spoke to her. She followed the 10-day success plan given to the attendees at the live workshop. It worked for her and she got her first article published. Then she just kept repeating that success plan. Today – in less than two years – she has had over 125 articles published. She shares some advice for writers just starting out… ***Start by taking a travel-writing course. The experts have done the work for you of laying out a road map to success. Follow it and you will have success. ***Start local. No one knows your hometown better than you. Pick up magazines at the doctor’s office, find local publications, reach out to the editors and pitch story ideas. Share stories about what you like to do, your favorite restaurants, etc. Starting local makes it easier to transition. Because Noreen has had such great success in such a short amount of time, she wants to pay it forward. She’s heading up a new and exciting program for Great Escape Publishing – the Travel Writer's Café- to help others follow in her footsteps. “I’m very excited to be launching this new program with Great Escape Publishing. Travel Writer's Café is designed as a community for beginning writers where experienced writers and editors will take members along on a journey, give them a roadmap and then issue a challenge.” Great Escape Publishing Director, Lori Allen shares more information on the new Travel Writer's Café… “The Travel Writer's Café will give members a community in which they can learn from other successful writers. We’ll give them a roadmap and help them navigate from ground zero to getting 100 bylines. Past workshop attendees who have had more than 100 bylines like Noreen, Theresa St. John, Patti Morrow and Terri Marshall, will be opening up their businesses, and sharing what has worked for them. Both Patti and Terri started travel writing while they had a full-time career. And both have now transitioned to being full-time travel writers. We’ll also bring editors into the fold to show members how to find stories. And we’ll teach them how to work smarter not harder on their path to 100 bylines.” For more information on the Travel Writer's Café, you can visit: www.greatescapepublishing.com/start/cafe.
