PRESS RELEASES
Most readers that read my tips usually want a quick answer in the first paragraph. For this month’s tip – if you want a press release published pick ONE or preferably all of the following topics:

  • War
  • Pets
  • Sex
  • Power
  • Hard Luck Stories
  • Money
  • Catastrophe
A badly written press release dealing with all of the above issues virtually guarantees publication.

In the absence of all of the above issues, it’s essential to ask yourself

“WHO GIVES A DAMN?”


If the answer is “Only me”, please do not write it.

However, if the answer is:
  • My street – send it only to your street
  • The local community – send it to your community paper
  • The city – send it to the city media
  • The nation – send it to national media
  • The world – place it in the international media/Internet
Before you exaggerate the importance of the media issue, also ask yourself –

“HOW MUCH OF A DAMN WOULD THEY GIVE?”

For example, you are opening up a car grease and oil change franchise that quickly trains up the young unemployed to provide these services at half the cost of the competition.

WHO GIVES A DAMN? HOW MUCH OF A DAMN?
  • Car owners who want to reduce car maintenance – care lots.
  • Federal Government agencies responsible for unemployment – care lots.
  • Society – greatly want unemployment to go down.
  • Consumers – are always keen to test new products.
NOW YOU HAVE THE BASIS OF A NUMBER OF MEDIA RELEASE TITLES:
  • “New Franchise Decimates the Cost of Car Maintenance”
  • “New Franchise Offers Hope for the Young Unemployed”
  • “Car Owners Give the Nod to Low Cost Car Maintenance Service”
To Complete the Press Release Now That You Have the Title You Need to Add:
  • Date
  • Embargo or Immediate Release
  • Sharp short introduction
  • Details answering – who, why, when, where and how
  • A short quotation
  • A brief background on the company and the possible impact
  • Contact details
