K.I.S.S. Tip – What Information is Best For a Press Release
One of my readers recently asked what information is best to include in a press release?
There are key components to press releases that should never be skipped when writing a press release:
- Your name.
- Your company name.
- Your contact information.
- Your product or service name if you’re announcing it for the first time.
- A link to your website (or better yet, an interior page of your website specific to this press release).
- A captivating or at least informational headline that tells people who and what the press release is about.
- A quote from you or a client explaining the problem you’re solving, why you received the recognition you’re telling us about, what your role in the community event you’re writing about was…something that helps the reader understand better your message and business.
- A closing line directing readers to the appropriate site for more information on you and your business.
