The CEO of Mahalo has gotten more press than any entrepreneur could dream of and has never had a public relations firm working for him.
Calacanis's philosophy of PR is summed up in six words: be amazing, be everywhere, be real.
You don't need a PR firm, you don't need an in-house PR person and you don't need to spend ANY money to get amazing PR. You don't need to be connected, and you don't need to be a "name brand."
