How can WORD-right help you with PR?

  • Identifying Opportunities: WORD-right works with you to help you identify your PR opportunities. Many seemingly everyday events in your company are, in fact, newsworthy. With a little help from WORD-right, you will soon learn to recognise a good PR story and how to exploit it.
  • Writing Press Releases: Because journalists and editors receive hundreds of press releases each day, it is important your Press Release is well written and provides the right information needed to attract attention. WORD-right will write your press releases, helping you get the most from your PR opportunities.
  • Press Release Distribution: Press release distribution can be time-consuming. WORD-right can help by distributing your press releases to a targeted media list on your behalf.
  • Building Media Relations: WORD-right will research the media most appropriate to your business, helping you generate PR coverage. In addition, WORD-right will contact selected editors and journalists on your behalf to help develop strong relationships, and improve the effectiveness of your PR campaigns.

What is PR?

PR stands for Public Relations. It is a means of building your reputation and generating free advertising for your business by sending Press Releases containing details of newsworthy events to:

  • Local newspapers
  • Business or trade magazines
  • Radio & TV stations
  • National press
  • Online media, new agencies, or ‘e-zines’

Why send a Press Release?

PR is free! Sending Press Releases will raise the profile of your business. PR is perceived to be more credible than paid-for advertising. Because your news item appears as a story in the selected media, it is viewed as being more factual than an advert.

Using Online PR and Press Releases provides a good source of incoming links to your websites. If your news story is used, it will appear online, normally hyperlinked to your website.

Targeting the Media

There are no guarantees your press release will be used by any of the publications you have sent it to. Journalists and editors receive hundreds of press releases each week, so it is important to target the right media.

Getting coverage in national press or on TV is seen as being the ultimate PR goal. However, very few press releases are sufficiently newsworthy to attract this sort of attention. Getting your news item placed in a trade magazine can often generate more attention and produce better results. The people reading trade or business magazines will have a specific interest in the subject.
