1. How often should we send a press release?
A single press release is much less likely to result in press than a weekly or monthly press release. It is important to view each press release as part of an ongoing media campaign.

8. Why are your prices so low?
Most businesses that offer a comparable service to ours are charging at least 2-5 times as much as us. We keep our prices low because we know that once smaller companies succeed in getting media coverage, they realize that they can't exist without continuous press release distribution and come back to us on a regular basis.

12. What do you guarantee?
We only guarantee that your release will be distributed to a targeted list of media contacts. We cannot promise that every press release sent will receive media coverage. The fact is that a poorly done press release will be passed up by the media. Also, it often takes repeated reminders to the media in the form of more press releases to get their interest. You must be persistent in order to be successful at getting free publicity. If you are able to get good publicity, it will remarkably improve your business.

13. How quickly does the media use my press release?
Trade publications, magazines and some other sources can take months to use your press release because of their printing schedule. Daily and weekly newspapers can run it the same day or within a couple of weeks. |
