Successful companies will tell you that editorial coverage in newspapers and magazines should be a vital part of your marketing strategy. With the majority of Americans using print media as a key source of information and entertainment, they would emphasize the power of print coverage for generating leads and/or acquiring new customers.

Every drop of ink is truly invaluable.  Whether your products are editorialized about or mentioned in national magazines or weekly newspapers, print exposure provides a legitimacy and credibility that can’t be matched.

Here at EMSI, we are “news junkies” and are perpetually devouring the news in search of current events that we can tie to our clients’ messages.  It all comes down to writing in the style that attracts the attention of journalists and reaching the right ones to gain the broadest response.

Since we’ve been pitching media for nearly 20 years, we are seasoned pros at this.  In fact, here is what two journalists from major publications have told us:

“Working with EMSI makes my job at The National Examiner a pleasure.  They have great clients, terrific follow-up and a team that gives their all to make things happen!”

“I believe I have published every press release you have sent. Your releases are so well written (which I love) that I have found little or no need to edit. I run them as you send them.”

In the past few weeks, our keen ability to capture the attention of journalists has resulted in interviews for our clients.  Here’s a snapshot of some of the major news outlets we’re working with:

Associated Press

Readers Digest: 37,291,332

Parenting: 8,661,756

MSN Money: 6,063240

Ebony: 5,835,928

The Street: 2,455,186

The best part is that our one-time flat fee for our print campaign is unbeatable when you compare it to the monthly retainer that other firms charge.
