Plain English Writing Examples
Press release
"Looking back at the way I used to write press releases I now understand why editors didn't bother to publish them. StyleWriter shows me how to write in the style newspaper and magazine editors prefer. The result is more free
exposure in the media."
- Chief Executive Officer
National newspapers get thousands of press releases every day. How many do they use? Usually only one in a hundred. Why so low?
Bad press releases:
-
Go to the wrong publications.
- Promote the organization not the news.
- Are not to a professional standard.
A professional journalist or editor will read your press release. If it's not relevant to his or her publication, is not newsworthy or is poorly written it will end up in the bin. You must therefore target your press release to the right publication and write to a high, professional standard.
