How to boost your 2022 sales with year-end media mentions
Wed Dec 08 2021
December is the month to kickstart 2022 with a journalist focus on small businesses for the next couple of months, starting with Black Friday and running right through to Valentines’ Day.
We’ve put a special ‘Boost PR Package’ together with our PR partners JournoLink, to give your business all it needs for a three month sales kickstart with guaranteed coverage, and JournoLink even writing your first press release for you.
To back up the ‘Boost PR Package’, JournoLink’s four must-do tips to capture the journalists’ eyes are:
- Timing.
Focus on trending news topics. This could be the impact of Covid rules changes, New Year sales, or Valentines’ Day and Easter products. - Interesting.
Make sure your news has a real interest angle. Why would a journalist want to cover it? - Image
Providing journalists with a compelling image can make all the difference between being used in stories and being passed over - Catch the journalist with the headline
A journalist will see the first 50 characters of a headline. Make them really count, with a hook they won’t be able to resist.
