In the press

Whether you hire someone to write your press release or you do it yourself… Planning ahead of time will help to make sure you include the relevant information. Think back to your good old school days and keep to a structure just like on social media. Create a title that will get people reading, entice them with an intro and then add some body text (keep it short.) Always add a ‘call to action’ and then add any extra information such as credit or links.


So, it boils down to two simple points – Planning and Structure. Get these two sorted and your marketing and social media will be concise and will make it easier than easy for your audience to follow.

Job done!
