  1. #1

    Default Press release?

    Can anyone recommend a good press release writer preferably not toooooo expensive to hire ?

    Has anyone ever used Black Fox Writing? How was your experience? I can't seem to find any reviews or recommendations for them on the web except their website

    We used The Letter Bug for a press release and I was that impressed, I am going to get all copywriting done by them.

    Rates are reasonable as well.

    A press release is an interesting document about your company’s events, products or services. It is a good way to garner traffic. It could announce a takeover, merger, etc. Search a reliable one and post your press release to announce your newly launched products or services.

    I can also vouch for Thinking Business, I have used them on a number of occasions and have been very happy with what they do.

    The only feedback I have got for you newman is I find it hard to search for a press release on your site that I might have posted in the past.. any tips on how to search better?

    Hi Brendan, Thanks for your vote of confidence and feedback.

    We did recently add a search function to the site and have plans to further increase the navigation with categories - as you can imagine it is an ongoing project.

    One hint if you want to do them yourself - if cost is an issue - read through the press releases you like in the local paper or on the sites you like.
    A press release has the following qualities:
    It is newsworthy and serves the community in some way to know about the event/release.
    It has a specific style depending on the medium you release it in. In the local newspapers for example, they have a headline, a subhead/intro, and a description of the event, who it serves, when and why the event or business is taking place, and any special offers, plus highlighting the expertise of the business owner or event organizer.

    One of the key tricks of the trade I found especially for newspapers was to ring the newspaper and ask for the criteria specific to getting published in their paper. They were always helpful.

    I do write press releases and have a number that I can demonstrate as examples, however it depends on your budget.
    You can check out either of my websites - as a copywriter I had a site called www.twohandsdancing.com - it is still live but I haven't updated it in a while because I now have a new site for my marketing - www.theprofitfrog.com

    Hope the info has helped you if you've decided to write them yourself.

    I highly advocate surveillance video tutorial about to learn how to use Word Tracker more successfully. SEO press releases can bring you first-page able to be seen for your keywords extremely quickly. Press releases are known to a group of the media or sent to a group of newspapers.
