What makes a good news story?
The media is always looking for stories. It’s a win-win: you are helping them to fill their pages and their newsfeeds and they are helping you by publicising you and your brand.
Here are just some ideas for press release – do any of them apply to you?
- Your origin story – the media loves people stories and you may have a great tale to tell
- Something new – new product, new location, new staff
- An anniversary or a milestone
- Supporting a good cause or charity
- Accreditation, like an ISO
- Events
- Expert comment on a news topic
- Warning or a reminder that everyone needs to know about
- Piggybacking on client news or awareness days
