“Five Things That You Must Do In Your Press Release”
|
1. Make your press release newsworthy. Make sure that you have somethingto say that'll be of interest to the readers of the publication thatyou're sending the press release to. Keep in mind that the media lovenews stories with a human side to them. Make your angle on the storyentertaining, interesting or newsworthy or don't bother sending out apress release at all.
2. Target your releases. There's no point in sending a press release aboutthe launch of your jewelry store to "Fishing World" magazine.
3. Use the proper press release format. Have a professional check thepress release for grammar and spelling.4. Keep the press release concise. Get to the point in the first paragraph.Use clear, concise, vivid language. There's no better way to get your storyignored than sending a lengthy release which doesn't state it's purpose(Who, When, Where, What) right upfront. Don't fill the press release withbuzz-words, hyperbole and exaggerated claims.
5. Write an excellent headline. The headline is 90% of your press release.Here are a few headlines that worked extremely well
- I Can Help Anyone Find the Love of Their Life in 90 Days Or Less!
- Abraham Lincoln's Office Is Being Given Away... For Free!
- Brooklyn Bridge Sold By New Jersey Man... For $14.95!
Write headlines that attract attention, stir emotion and create picturesin the mind of the reader.
More On Targeting
Be careful who you send your press release to. When compiling your own medialist don't waste your time getting the email addresses or fax numbers ofevery newspaper and magazine in the country, just the ones who would beinterested in your story. Likewise, when you purchase a media list, don'tsend your press release to every contact. Take some time to filter out allthe ones who wouldn't care about your press release, no matter how good it is.
