Strategic structure of the press distribution list - What to consider

11/17/2023 | by Patrick Fischer, M.Sc., Founder & Data Scientist: FDS

1. Define your target audience:

Before you begin creating your press release distribution list, you must first identify the target audience for which you want to publish the press releases. Identify the media outlets that might be interested in your news, as well as the specific editors and journalists who can best reach your information.

2. Gather contact information:

At the same time, you need to collect contact information for your press distribution list. This includes the names, email addresses and phone numbers of the editors and journalists you want to contact. You can get this contact information by searching the Internet or by sharing it with your network.

3. Segment your distribution list:

For an effective press distribution list, it is important to segment your distribution list. This means grouping your distribution list by different criteria such as region, topic, media type, etc. This will help you send relevant content to the right people.

4. Send personalized messages:

Once you have created your press distribution list, you should personalize the emails you send to editors and journalists. This means tailoring your message to that person's name and specific interests. It is important that you send the right messages to the right people.

5. Measure the results:

To determine the success of your press distribution, you need to measure the results. This includes monitoring the number of emails you send and the number of emails that are opened and read. You can also monitor the number of clicks on your links in the emails. This will help you understand what content is working best.
