Why Would I Issue A Press Statement?

x


Local newspapers and niche publications are always on the look-out for something to write about.  Whilst it's a journalist's job to go out and look for news, when news comes to them it is seldom unwelcome.

If a new restaurant or retail outlet opens in town then that is news.  In the same way, the opening of a new collection of online poker rooms can be worth reporting on.  If you are a trader with thoughts to offer about your line of work then there is every possibility that your trade publication will have some space for you to fill.  If you use your imagination there is a good chance that there is something to be said about your business that other people want to read.

True, when you send a press release it doesn't carry the certainty of publication that you have when you pay for an advert.  But then when you do get a write-up it is usually more personal, goes into far greater detail than an ad ever could and will be read by many more people.  And.....it's cheap!

Of course, you don't need to use our services to send out a press statement, you could do it yourself.  But some people don't have a flair for writing (none of us is good at everything).  Many others don't speak English as a first language.  Or else you might just not have the time or the inclination.

When you write a press statement there are certain skills involved that come only with practice.  For instance, recognising that journalists are busy and under pressure to meet deadlines (or even that in some cases they can be just plain idle), the press release which is written in the style of a newspaper feature and needs the least editing will have far more chance of seeing the light of day than that which needs major work.

At Simple Statements our writers have the training and experience to generate high-quality press releases within a short space of time and to target them where they are most likely to be welcomed.  For a small additional fee we will even chase them up, contacting the journalist to whom they have been sent and asking whether he or she is interested, and whether any additional information needs to be given to make an article run.  Of course we can never guarantee publication, but we can increase the chances of success significantly through our targeted efforts.

Many providers charge hundreds of pounds for a service no better than that which we offer.  We believe this is excessive and unjustifiable, and that our prices are fair for what it is we do.

Simple Statements looks forward to working with you.
