MC will write and develop a comprehensive press kit, meeting the specific needs of today's media: TV, radio, print, Internet - national and local.
We identify the strongest story angles after fully researching your industry and topic area. We thoroughly review your Web site, blog, book, and background materials. The press materials are designed to not only get the attention of the media, but to help facilitate the media when conducting an interview with you.
The kit consists of many components, including:
a press release
biography
suggested interview questions or Q and A
additional pages of story-ready information
relevant background materials
statistical data and fact sheets
