New NAHB Video Shows How to Communicate With Media



NAHB has created a short video and tip sheet for HBAs and members, “Communicating Effectively with the Media,” on how to effectively communicate with the media and educate the public about the real issues facing housing today, now that the housing market is experiencing a cooling period. The video is available free to members and HBAs.

This quick, seven-minute video provides an excellent summary of what everyone needs to remember prior to an interview, while providing a superb refresher to NAHB’s spokesperson training program.

“Communicating Effectively with the Media” covers how to prepare for an interview, avoid common mistakes people make when conducting an interview and deal with aggressive reporters.

To access the new media relations video and tip sheet, visit the Members Only side of the NAHB Web site at www.nahb.org/mediaguide.

In addition to the media relations video, NAHB offers a host of other public relations resources tools, including a PR Toolkit, spokesperson training and talking points on relevant issues. All of these resources can be found on the NAHB Web site by clicking here.

For more information, e-mail Paul Lopez at NAHB, or call him at 800-368-5242 x8409.
