ABOUT THE STRATEGIST
Meet Tracy
Tracy Samantha Schmidt is a visibility strategist with more than 25 years of experience across media, marketing, and communications.
She spent 15 years inside major newsrooms — including TIME, ABC, CBS, and FOX — and later taught marketing at the University of Chicago. Over the years, she’s advised more than 150 brands and led workshops on personal branding, visibility, and PR for thousands of people.
Across that work, one pattern kept showing up: people didn’t need more tactics to move forward. They needed help deciding what actually made sense to focus on next, and what could wait.
The Visibility Strategy Session is designed to offer that perspective. It brings together Tracy’s experience across PR, marketing, and media to help you evaluate your current visibility and make clearer, more intentional decisions about how to move forward.
