Do you remember when all you had to do was send out a press release, make a follow-up call to a reporter, and if you had something ‘newsworthy’ to say there it was in black and white the next day?
Well, we actually do remember back that far. But it became increasingly obvious that the Internet was changing the way people consumed and distributed news and information. The ‘spray and pray’ methodology common to wire services just wasn’t cutting it anymore. We also saw people take on more of a DIY spirit.
We loved our jobs but we also knew we had to change the way we did things. It was at that point that we devised a website that allowed organizations of all shapes and sizes to access OUT OF HOME MEDIA IDEAS to distribute their product news to an audience that wanted and needed the information.
Fast-forward six years. Newsrooms have changed forever. Audiences are fragmented, deadlines are shorter, reporters are under increasing pressure and bloggers have entered the fray. What’s a marketer to do?
As the web’s only targeted news and publicity distribution service, You have helped countless clients package and send their organization’s news and information to a targeted list of journalists, bloggers and industry analysts .
We would want to stop sending media releases that fall wide of the mark and instead, put our news in the hands of people that matter. YOU. Here are the reasons that make YOU So Special.....
