Which distribution channel should I use?
No wire service can guarantee you any media pickup. It increasingly gets around that the syndication-based monitoring reports they provide are a sham. Real media pick up depends strongly on the channels used, and the news release of course.
Which distribution channel should I use?
It is almost impossible to understand the PR packages of big wires. Which circuits of the health wire are relevant for my news? Does it have a global reach? Does the biotech newsline also target major European trade media? Or is it just national? Do I need microlist distribution? How do all these services compare to each other? I’ve made it a rule to be skeptical towards everything whose meaning is not immediately clear.
About 40% of the trades are located in Europe. If an American company chooses only national distribution it will miss a lot of awareness! And vice versa. But you really have to have deep pockets if you use the big wire services for a global distribution in trade media.
When you are a private company it is almost impossible to get into the financial magazines. Why should you pay this reach? Most editors have a science background and talk English. Why should you pay multiple translations? Companies increasingly switch to B3C newswire because they know that they get the maximum reach in trade media at fair rates.
