Hi, I’m Gina McKenzie.
After more than 20 years of public relations experience in the corporate world, I became an entrepreneur and launched GEM Public Relations.
I’ve worked on everything from blue chip, big-budget brands to small businesses and startups, to indie book launches. I’ve found that I am most passionate about helping small business owners, authors, and solopreneurs grow their brands through PR.
That’s why I created Hack Your PR, a membership that provides support, resources, and accountability to learn how to do PR.
I want to help you unpack everything you need to know about creating a PR strategy that grows your brand without the stress!

Regardless of her role in trying to make me look good, she has always operated creatively, efficiently, and effectively. She has been a tremendous asset and partner. I can’t thank Gina enough for what she has done and continues to do for me.”
“Gina is an invaluable partner. She has gracefully and effectively enabled growth of my brand, presence, and credibility with her expertise and warm, personable approach. She is delightfully easy to work with and energizing, and her genuine care for me as a person is as strong as her attention to my PR goals and business success! Gina is a must-have on your team!”
“Gina is one of the most creative thinkers I’ve ever worked with, and also one of the most fun. When we’re brainstorming what else we can do for a client, we can always count on Gina to bust the roadblocks and come up with something completely new and clever. Her imaginative approach to placing clients saves the day on a regular basis.”

Do you guarantee that I'll get PR for my biz / brand / book?
Publicity is never guaranteed, as there are several factors in play. But we can guarantee that Hack Your PR will give you the tools, resources, and skills you need to do quality outreach to maximize your chances for exposure via PR and media.
What kind of publicity can I expect?
You can get publicity via TV, magazines, podcasts, online publications, and more!

Can't I just hire a publicist to do this for me?
