You might be interested in knowing that I’m offering a free email tutorial called "89 Ways to Write Powerful Press Releases." I explain why we should no longer be writing press releases only for the press, but for consumers who can find the releases online, click through to our websites and enter our sales cycle, even if journalists don’t think our release is worthy of attention. The course includes several terrific press release samples as well as "before" and "after" makeovers. You can sign up for the free press release writing tutorial at http://www.PublicityHound.com/pressreleasetips/art.htm It's a very long tutorial but please stick with it. By the time you're done, it will be like earning a master's degree in writing and distributing press releases. And you'll know more about this topic than many PR people. Your advice on press releases is right on the mark.
