But it doesn\u2019t have to be. If you\u2019re careful, take advantage of your resources, and you\u2019re strategic about your approach, press release marketing and a focus on press and PR can be one of the most cost-effective ways to grow your business awareness and bottom line.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/guides.newswire.com\/guide\/how-to-send-press-releases-via-email\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright\" style=\"margin-left: 20px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newswire.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/Guide-Email-image.png\" alt=\"email-press-release\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" align=\"right\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Leverage Your Content<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Content plays a key role in your press and public relations. Everything you publish \u2013 from a tweet to a press release \u2013 needs to be optimized for maximum results. When it comes to getting the best return on your investment and saving money, that means leveraging your content in multiple ways. For example, a blog post can be shared on social media, a snippet can be tweeted, the post can be teased on your newsletter, and you can submit it to directories for more exposure. A press release can and should be distributed using every available channel you currently use, including distribution services, email, on your blog, and via social media. Get more bang for your content buck.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Assign a Dedicated Press and PR Manager<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you can swing it, assign or hire someone to manage your press and public relations. It may be more cost effective to go with a management service instead of inhouse. A dedicated person overseeing your press and public relations means it will get the attention that it needs, and that no resource or marketing asset will be overlooked. When one person is managing too many job titles or no one is managing your press and PR, it\u2019s easy to miss out on viable opportunities.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Leverage Service Based Resources<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We just talked about using a press and PR management service as an option. Other service providers include but aren\u2019t limited to writers, social media management services, and press release distribution services. You may be surprised at all the features and functionality a distribution service can offer, including analytics, writing and editing, and much more. Outsourcing or using specialists can really help you get the most for your money.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Don\u2019t Overreach<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Stay focused on your targets. It\u2019s easy to get sidetracked and want to target everyone and anyone around the globe. Identify your key audience and focus on content and content channels to reach them. That includes the media. Key targets are more cost effective than crossing your fingers and hoping that someone, anyone, covers your story.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Track your Results<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re not testing and tracking your press and PR results then you\u2019re losing money. Analytics help you determine which tactics and efforts are working for you and which aren\u2019t. They help you fine tune your campaigns to get the most for your money.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to get more bang for your marketing buck (and who doesn\u2019t?), then embracing these five tips will go a long way. You\u2019ll save money and generate better results for your marketing efforts. Don\u2019t overlook press and PR because you think it\u2019s too expensive.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Call us today to speak to one of our PR specialists: 1-800-713-7278<\/strong><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Press and public relations can be an expensive marketing strategy and tactic.
