Another real response Royah received 🤣

It just goes to show that no matter how well thought out and perfectly planned your outreach is, you’re still going to run into responses that require some polite persistence.

We’re all human, we take breaks & vacations and once we’re back… we might need a little time to adjust back to reality 😎

In the post-COVID world, so much has gone virtual — events, premieres, even whole release strategies. And while virtual tools are great for reach and accessibility, there’s still something special about being in the room with your audience. The energy of a live screening, the real-time reactions — that kind of connection is hard to replicate online. So what’s the smartest approach? Do both.

This month, we’re focusing on the in-person experience: theatrical and semi-theatrical events. We’ll cover how to design a theatrical strategy that works in today’s landscape, and how it fits into a bigger, smarter hybrid approach that blends reach, revenue, and real-world connection.
