A proposito di questo titolo

Welcome to the Magnetic PR Podcast with your host, Melanie Whittaker.

Your business is as unique as you are, and this is what you need to lead with when promoting yourself. Marketing that works doesn’t chase people. It attracts. When your content and message become magnetic, marketing becomes so much easier.


Sharing your story and your truth helps people see the person behind the business. Potential clients hire people who share their same values, and public relations helps their decision making become so much easier.


Each week, Melanie and her guests discuss marketing, PR and sales, and how coaches, authors and business owners can get seen, be heard and attract the right clients. Real people having real conversations, with advice that actually works.

    Short description

    Show notes

    Welcome to another fun episode of the Magnetic PR Podcast with your host, Melanie Whittaker!

    This week, Mel is joined by Chrissy Symeonakis, founder of marketing agency Creative Little Soul in Sydney, Australia. Chrissy has worked in marketing for 25 years across nightclubs, bars, festivals and restaurants, and she’s an email marketing specialist.

    In this episode:

    • The story behind the name Creative Little Soul
    • Why brands that look, sound and feel human will stand out in the AI age: “Use the tech, just don’t be the tech”
    • Why Mel tells PR clients never to write their articles with AI
    • What excites Chrissy about marketing, from fax machine press releases to a nightclub launch with a plain white full-page ad
    • Why people buy with feelings, and why no marketing in the world can fix a business you’re not excited about
    • The question Chrissy asks potential clients: are we reinvigorating your business, or preparing you to sell?
    • What makes Chrissy’s all-female team unique, and her dad’s advice: “You never do anything for the money, you do it for the people”
    • Calling out the bullshit: the boys’ club, gatekeeping and underpricing in the industry
    • Chrissy’s work with Australian festivals, promoters and DJs (including Chicane!)
    • Why emotion is the thread running through all good marketing

    “If people feel something, they’re going to do something with what you’ve made them feel. So your marketing has to cause a feeling.”

    Chrissy’s Season 1 offer
    A 30 minute strategy call and online audit for one person, plus a 15 minute intro call open to anyone, to see how you can improve your online presence.

  • Episode 1: The Difference Between Marketing and Public Relations

    Episode 1: The Difference Between Marketing and Public Relations
    Nov 3 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    Short description
    Season 1 starts here! Mel explains the difference between marketing and public relations using her two cars analogy, why people need to know, like and trust you before they buy, and how PR adds rocket fuel to your marketing by showing the personality behind the face of the brand.

    Show notes

    Welcome to the very first episode of Season 1 of the Magnetic PR Podcast with your host, Melanie Whittaker!

    A lot of people feel unsure about what public relations actually is. Do I need it? Is it going to help my business? So before Season 1 gets going, Mel breaks down the difference between marketing and PR, and why running them side by side is a game changer.

    In this episode:

    • The two cars analogy: why marketing is always asking for the sale, and PR never does
    • Why we’re bombarded by adverts every day, and why people won’t buy from someone they don’t know
    • If people can be fascinated by reality TV stars, think how fascinated they can be in YOU
    • Why PR gives the business owner a personality, not just a face for the brand
    • Staying in your own lane, and why you don’t need to worry about a saturated market
    • Why Mel doesn’t hop on every marketing trend just to keep the algorithm happy
    • The onion effect: how every interview and article peels back another layer of who you are
    • Why you shouldn’t fall for sleazy “offer ends at midnight” tactics, and why honesty matters more than ever
    • Why your website and social media need to match your vision before you start PR
    • The highs and lows of the PR journey, and why there’s nowhere to hide
    • Why you can’t control the algorithm or your email open rates, but you can control how you show up

    “A personality is behind the face of the brand.”
