Meet Your Instructor

My name is Rebekah Epstein and I am the founder of fifteen media, a boutique PR firm specializing in media outreach. I’ve worked with hundreds of small and medium businesses, and more than 40 prominent national PR firms have sought out my services to increase media placements for their clients. I’ve landed my clients in publications like Forbes, People, Self, Health, Refinery 29, Everyday Health, Men’s Health, and many more targeted publications.

In addition to helping clients get the media attention they deserve, I also tour the country speaking at conferences and teaching private workshops. 

Not every business can hire a PR firm, but I believe anyone can learn my 4-step process to be their own publicist.
