Austin-San Marcos, TX (1888PressRelease)
April 03, 2009 - Erin passed up seven solid PR job offers, ranging from Director of Public Relations at Six Flags Dallas to PR Specialist for Texas Health Resources, a chain of ten major Metroplex hospitals. Although they offered great salaries of $75 to $150k, none would discuss flex-time or telecommuting, even on a part-time basis.
Erin took on her first PR campaign within days of giving birth to her third child. Although home-bound, she successfully helped her client grow her company while nursing and nurturing an infant. A year later, both are thriving beautifully.
Today, with three kids under four-years old, Erin has a full weekly schedule. She takes her daughter to pre-school three mornings a week, attends playgroups, play dates, zoo outings, mommy-and-me classes, and she cooks and cleans for the family.
Every afternoon, however, she sits down for an hour or two to work undisturbed as a public relations professional. She has no nagging stress about what she could or should be doing for her family because her busy mornings are all about them. She strategies with her client and spends a couple hours talking to reporters. Then she feeds her kids dinner, baths them, read bedtime stories and puts them to bed – all the while 9-to-5ers are sitting on clogged highways trying to make their way home from the daily grind.
Erin works for BlabberMouth PR.
Patti Hill, the founder and CEO of BlabberMouth PR, has developed a training arm for those interested in entering the field of public relations – and requires no past PR experience. Penman PR Training Institute was specifically designed for recareering adults, adults re-entering the workforce and recent graduates.
The next class will be held April 22 through April 24, 2009 in Austin, Texas. The cost is $395 during early registration, until April 13. After April 13, it will be $595.
