Since 1997, I’ve been helping entrepreneurs get seen and heard in newspapers, trade journals, magazines, on the radio, and on television. As a copywriter, I’ve helped my clients get front-page exposure in newspapers and in premium columns in magazines…I’ve even had Jay Leno’s The Tonight Show contact me about booking one of my clients after reading a media release I wrote.
This isn’t rocket science. It starts with a newsworthy idea – and a well-written media release (aka press release or news release).
First, you need to understand that publicity is not about you! It’s about giving editors what they need to create a strong story. In other words, you’re making their job easier by giving them exactly what they need to write a compelling piece…and getting free publicity for your business as a bonus.
A media release is often your only opportunity to make a great first impression and capture media attention. But newspapers, magazines, trade publications, television, and radio receive truckloads of them!
So, how do you make your media release stand out?
And how can you get additional mileage out of your media release?
I was very impressed with the 360° Media Release Handbook. I found this product to be clearly written with simple instructions and excellent examples that allowed me to write a media release that was newsworthy! I recently used this product and was amazed by all of the responses that I received within one month including multiple newspaper articles; a full-page story on our company, as well as a TV spot. This free advertising has brought a lot of publicity and new clients to our business.

I recently purchased Susan’s 360° Media Release Handbook and was astounded at the results I received after writing my first media release. I’m a knitter, not a writer, but after going through this guidebook, it was a simple process to write a media release that got attention. Within three months, I was profiled on Rogers TV, the London Health Science Centre website (proceeds from my work help support the Breast Care Program at St. Joseph’s Hospital), and in the London Tourism’s “Find It In London” video series. Another story will soon be published in a community newspaper. The free publicity I received has really helped create awareness for my business during these tumultuous times. Susan Regier also offers so many workshops to assist with your business growth. I will forever be a loyal fan.
