5 Tips On Standing Out & Being Newsworthy…

  • Be different and creative in your angle.  Yes, it is true that you should study what reporters cover what, but believe that they will not report the same exact story twice – so make sure to have a good spin, or better yet a different one.

 

 

 

  • Ensure that it is something people can relate to or do not know about but need to know about – it has to be something that can cause a change.  If you’re a musician, you have to let them know why you or your band is someone whom they should check out, because after all, there are an abundance of artists out today.

 

 

  • Does what you do appeal to the emotions of people?

 

 

  • One of the best things which you can do is piggyback off a holiday, trend, current topic or season, but remember to make sure that it has a different spin than what has previously been reported.

 

 

  • The best way to be recognized is to make sure you cover something they have not reported before is the MAIN thing to remember – that will likely instantaneously make you newsworthy.

Why PR Professionals Should Use ePUBLICITYpr.com?

While we have addressed this in our FAQ, we wanted to highlight the great benefits of PR Professionals using ePUBLICITYpr.com for their clients:


It’s everything that you need to run a SUCCESSFUL publicity campaign under one roof, without having to go to many different websites to manage one campaign.  The name of the game is efficiency, which will help you take on more clients.


(A) The press releases are automatically published to our homepage (you have the option to make your press release private if you do not want homepage exposure) – where people will see your headlines as they come to the site.  It remains for seven days from posting date, but is also archived in our category blog, which means that the press release will live online for a long time (getting more exposure, even after you’ve posted it). This is a GREAT feature, because it gives your press release INSTANT homepage exposure as soon as you post (there is no waiting for it to be accepted).

 

**Please note that someone mans each posting to ensure that there is nothing derogatory or offensive within the body of the press release.

 

 

(B) You can create an (email) electronic press kit for your client in minutes, for a fraction of the cost of a paper press kit.  It can be updated and changed around at any time.  You also have the ability to send it to an unlimited amount of people and track who opens it.  If you’re representing a musician, you can determine which of your client’s songs can be sent individually or as an album and downloaded.

 

You also may brand the press kit or the press release with your logo or your client’s logo (not ours).

 

(C) The onsite journalists can grab the press release and save it in their inbox on the site if they are interested in it.  Furthermore, access to our journalist database, to reach media that you may not have thought about.

(D)
You may store/manage your database and send it out to your own database from the site.  Your press release will show up with all of the features, and you’re able to manage your list without having to bcc from your email account.

 

(E) The press releases and the press kits shows up in the body of the email with the features such as the pictures, attachments – that are hosted on our server.  As you may know, MOST journalists are leery about opening attachments when it is sent directly attached to them. You also get the ability for people to share the press releases and press kits with their social media contacts instantly, the tools for them to download it as PDF (in which it’s automatically converted to PDF format)/printer-friendly version, etc.

 
(F) The ability to add anchor text – free of charge to allow for optimization of keywords/keyword phrases, the adding of hyperlinks (again, no additional charge). We manually add to social networking and bookmarking sites DAILY! This is for more exposure and increased visibility when it comes to being found in search engines such as Google, Yahoo and Bing. We’re sure that the added exposure will help you in client’s campaign!

 

 

We never charge you extra for added features or exposure, so we assist you in doing your job of getting your client the most exposure as possible. The only time that you will incur an additional fee is if you want us to send out to our more extensive database.

 

 

**Make sure that you’re on our ‘Preferred Publicist’ list so that we may send potential clients your way! **

In business, press kits are more commonly referred to as media kits. Electronic Press Kits are used to promote organizations, artists and businesses online in electronic format.  Most would encompass all key information – bio, photos, music (if applicable), videos and more – all to be viewed online. This format or a traditional press kit is the only way that you would contact the media.
