Recently, we have put two clients in touch one of whom successfully sells into a market place our other client is looking for an introduction into. Conversely, there is an opportunity for sales. How fantastic is that ? All through the In Press connection.
And its not only confined to technical and industrial companies and contacts. Through local networking in Berkshire, Wiltshire and Oxfordshire, we have a trusted network of other contacts that may be able to help both you and your business.
In Press keeps in close contact with the head of Meech International in China and translated releases have been distributed and published in Chinese journals. A database of Chinese magazines is constantly kept updated at In Press’s head office and releases distributed on a regular basis.
In Press has been working with Jekyll Electronic Technology for past 7 years and since its acquisition by Lamerholm in 2004, management at Lamerholm has been impressed with the level of coverage gained for Jekyll products.
In Press will be using a planned and structured press relations campaign to promote Lamerholm’s ShockLog and ShockWatch products.
At In Press, we actively encourage our clients to make the most of large contract wins and case histories, where we talk about how we have helped particular companies solve their problems. Editors are very receptive to case histories, particularly where we can name the customers and include quotations. It also helps promote technical expertise and puts in the mind of prospects “Well, if they can do that for them, I wonder what they can do for me.”
One thing we always do though is to make sure we get approvals from every company that is mentioned in the article. The articles are usually by-lined by both our clients and their customers.
Reading this article, however, has set some bells ringing. Okay, so we wouldn’t dream of illustrating an article with an Olympic mascot or the ‘rings’ but I would have considered promoting the fact some of our clients will be providing services to the event. Looks like it will only be the official sponsors that will get publicity from this event.
