This however, can be expensive, but if done well can be an excellent driver of new business. They key is in selecting the right publication, promoting the right product in the best way as consistently as possible. One shot efforts are a complete waste of money.
The rules for communicating with the media as well as the public have greatly changed since the internet became such a powerful medium.
Today, savvy marketing professionals use press releases to reach buyers directly. Many marketing and PR people understand that press releases sent over the wires appear in near real time on services like Google News. But very few understand the implication that they must dramatically alter their press-release strategy if they are to maximize the effectiveness of the press-release as a channel for directly communicating with customers.
The media has been disintermediated. The Web has changed the rules. Buyers read your press-releases directly, and you need to be speaking their language, although mainstream media and the trade press must still be part of your overall communications strategy. Your audience is no longer just a handful of journalists, it now extends to millions of people with Internet connections and access to search engines and RSS readers.
