Local Media Outlets
This general contact information will get you started with local press and media coverage. Being proactive and establishing relationships with key reporters and editors is always a smart idea. Start small and introduce yourself and your business, then work up to sending them a pitch for a unique story which only you can provide.
The goal is to be seen as an expert in your area so that media channels know to contact you when the need arises.
Here’s an important tip when reaching out to the press:
• Be sure to personalize your email communications. That means sending to specific people. It also means ensuring the communication appears to be individually sent. Email blasts are not recommended when sending out pitch letters and press releases. If you want special attention from the press, then it pays to make them feel special in return.
This list is your starting point. Use it to discover which reporters cover specific fields of interest. Then keep that information handy for the next time you’d like to get media coverage.
Don’t forget that Small Business Milwaukee can write press releases and feature articles for your small business. Find out more here.
