3 + Press Releases: Writing and Delivery Sara Crocker Communications Specialist, Colorado and Denver Bar Associations + The Purpose of the Press Release As your organization s public relations specialist, you have to balance the wants of your organization with the needs of your local media.
4 + Play by the Newsroom Rules The same qualities of news articles apply for releases: Timeliness Relevance Uniqueness Impact or Helpfulness Know your audience This means getting to know the editors and producers of your local media and being in touch with the interests and values of your local community. Be aware of how your local media prefer to get press releases and what kind of format is best. + Play by the Newsroom Rules Photo by Victoria Peckham Write like a pro You writing style should match that of a member of a newsroom. That means using AP Style, having strong grammar and punctuation and good organization. Be concise Don t exceed two pages.
5 + The Anatomy of a Press Release Essentials of a press release from top to bottom: Heading Release date Contact information Headline Dateline Lead Body Boilerplate + Heading Anatomy of a Press Release Display your organization s name and/or logo.
6 + Release Date Anatomy of a Press Release Be aware of a publication s deadline for print, especially if you re targeting your release to a non-daily media organization. For immediate release vs. an embargoed release. + Contact Information Anatomy of a Press Release The contact for the press release should be a member of your communications team, but you can also include any other staffer or member who is involved with the topic of the release (assuming they can speak on behalf of the organization. Contact information should include: The contact s name and title Phone number (consider adding a cellphone if it is for an event and you will be away from your desk
7 + Headline Anatomy of a Press Release Use the headline as your focus statement it can be a guideline for your lead (first paragraph) of your release. Formatting note: Bold the headline, increase it about two points larger than your body font and only uppercase the first word and any proper names + Dateline Anatomy of a Press Release The dateline is the city of origin of the press release; generally, this is your organization s headquarters. Formatting note: The city should be in all caps. Follow AP style to determine whether the city name should be followed by a state abbreviation.
8 + The Lead Anatomy of a Press Release This is the first paragraph of your press release, and the most important. The hard-news lead: Address who, what, where, and when Don t simply restate your headline + The Lead Anatomy of a Press Release Feature lead This may be an anecdote or narrative to illustrate the topic of the press release. These can be effective, but be sure to immediately follow with key information.
9 + Body Anatomy of a Press Release Introduce key points and illustrate why the information in this press release matters to the audience you are targeting. Quotes Provide a voice to your topic by including a quote from a member or staffer of the organization. Be concise Write short, tight paragraphs. + Boilerplate Anatomy of a Press Release This is your about us section. A short paragraph that explains who your organization is and what you do. When appropriate, include the boilerplate of any subgroups of your organization or other partners who are involved with the topic your press release is addressing. Remember to keep this information relevant to your audience. Note the end of the release: ### or -30- is appropriate.
10 + Enhance Your Press Release Multimedia Fact Sheet Media Kit Formatting note: If you can limit attachments, do so. With many reporters on the go, more and more are checking their from their smartphones, which may only appear in text or may not be able to download large s with lots of multimedia attachments. + Multimedia Enhance Your Press Release Photos Headshots Action shots The dreaded grip and grin Video Use as a way to provide further information outside what is addressed in the press release. The Power of Links Place links where appropriate within the release. Link to photos and videos to avoid bulky s or errors with embedded media.
11 + Fact Sheet Enhance Your Press Release Use it as a venue to highlight unique information about the organization or the topic of the press release and to answer who, what, where, when and why in a more in-depth format. Again, be sure you provide additional information; don t just restate what s in your release. Limit to one page. No time for a fact sheet? Use the organization of the 5 Ws to organize your thoughts for your press release. + Media Kit Enhance Your Press Release A media kit is best used to promote a product or event. Items to include: A cover letter state what information you re sharing and what is included in the kit News release first item to include after the cover letter Fact sheet Background this could be a feature or other information that gives further insight to your topic. Story ideas provide some opportunities for the media; keeping in mind their areas of interest. Be sure to vet these stories first. The product Formatting note: In the past these were largely mailed but you can also create a digital portfolio and offer to provide the editor or producer with the product on request.
12 + Distribution Target your audience Personal follow-up Mass distribution and PR newswires + Target Your Audience Distribution Know your local media Determine what media outlets would best share your information with the audience you are looking to reach. Make contact with editors and producers in your area before you have to pitch something to understand their organization s interests and the best ways to get your message out to their audience.
13 + Personal Follow-up Distribution If you have time, follow up with a phone call or personal after you d sent a press release even better, try to reach out to those reporters before you send a press release so they have a head s up. + Mass Distribution and PR Newswires Distribution There are times when your press release will appeal to a broad audience and you may want to spread to word to as many people as possible. You may decide to send to all of your media contacts. Try to avoid spamming the media. If you are short on time or are still building your media contacts, consider working with a PR newswire. This is a paid service, but removes the guess work and ensures distribution to media targeted by geography, diversity or topic.

16 Publicity Proactively seeking positive recognition for products, services, features and achievements. Interviews:When a reporter calls Who is the reporter and what type of publication does he/she work for? When and where will the story appear? What s the angle of the story?

18 Interviews: Best practices When you finish answering a reporter s question, STOP. Interviews: On camera Starts moment you introduce yourself, ends after you part company. Talk to the interviewer, not the camera lens. Speak and gesture naturally. Smile when appropriate. Offer a business card.

20 PR Self-help advice reporters unless you have something to offer on BREAKING news. You can ask in the if it s ok to call.
