How can you promote your company in the press?

Whether to create relationships with the written press, the web press or the audiovisual press, this approach doesn’t come easily and must be approached professionally.

Before communicating with the press, ensure that your information is:

  • objective, well-argued and sound
  • original and unpublished
  • of real interest for the reader (and therefore the journalist)
  • targeted according to the major media categories and/or according to their sections.
  • disseminated at the right time.

If one of these criterion is not met, don’t waste your time: the journalist will ignore your press release.

The press relations tools are:

  • an updated journalists’ database
  • the press release
  • the press pack
  • organisation of press briefings, press conferences or press visits.
