Julian Bray's Basic Press Contact List

Use this List (correct as of January 2009) as the basis for creating your own press list, to gain editorial publicity for your event. But first have a look at our guide to crafting effective news releases. Do not under any circumstances, use the entire list for any single hit, be highly selective, as no one should ever Spam, just for the sake of it!

 

The Punch Tavern, Fleet Street, London EC4

We advise reading the target publications first, to get an idea of the style and content. Keep your news short, factual and do not exceed 250 words - a single page of A4.

Ensure that you include a 'For Further Information: XXXX' panel give out of hours mobile phone numbers; in addition to regular office numbers.

Don't do this as an attachment, but put the copy (text) in the main body of your e-mail...that way it gets read! Better still, NO ATTACHMENTS!

Only send pictures if requested or use a recognised press picture distribution service such as Press Association Picture Net. The idea is for a very speedy download at their end...

 

SELECT THE TITLES AND CORRRESPONDENTS ALLIED TO YOUR EVENT OR CONVENTION 
DO NOT USE THE ENTIRE LIST OR SPAM, IT IS ALWAYS COUNTER PRODUCTIVE!

WARNING!

Moneysaving, motivational and marketing suggestions here and elsewhere will ONLY be of value if you have corporately established clear lines of credit, if you have cash and any banking facilities are in place with a cash reserve to cover any immediate call on your account. Be strongly advised that any bank overdraft (however the lender likes to dress it up) and whatever size non-refundable 'arrangement' or 'facility' advance fee paid by you or your business to your bank, does not guarantee your facility and an overdraft is always repayable on demand. That is immediately! So if your future business depends on any form of borrowed money, consider factoring or other forms of finance. Failing which, seriously consider trimming your business making it leaner and fitter. Consider ruthlessly culling credit accounts and customers who do not meet your strict credit terms.

Julian Bray runs a series of workshops for business and fully addresses these and other issues. For information call 01733 345581 or e-mail julianbray@aol.com
