Easy Publicity For Your Business

In the old days, press releases were published in newspapers. Space limitations meant that only a limited amount of information could appear so journalists could pick and choose what to accept.
But with the rise of internet sites where you can submit press releases yourself, it’s become much easier to spread the word about your business.

You don’t have to have major, dramatic news to send out a press release. Especially as a small business or sole proprietor, you can wait a long time for something dramatic to happen!

When you look around your small business, you’ll find many seemingly everyday occurrences that you may take for granted but that offer good opportunities to let people know what you’re up to.

Your press release can be centered around:

- Announcing a new product or service.

- A new employee.

- An award you got.

- An additional certification you acquired that makes you more of an expert.

- A strategic partnership with another business.

- A milestone date in your business (e.g. first anniversary).

- Moving your business to a new location.

- Speaking engagements at professional meetings or conferences.

- Teleseminars, workshops or webinars you’re leading.

- A new book you’ve published.

- A major contract you’ve pulled in.

- Letting the public know that you have free resources available at your website.

- An event that you’re putting on and donating part of the proceeds to charity. Follow up later by letting the public know how much you raised.

- Appointment to the Board of Directors of a professional organization or charity.

- An appearance on a radio show or on local or national TV.

- Starting your own radio show!

- Being an exhibitor at a trade show. Follow up later by reporting major successes that came as a result of the trade show.

These are just a few ideas to jog your creative mind. Look around at what’s happening every day and I’m sure you’ll discover many other possibilities to let the world know about your business.
