Writing a press release step by step - A guide
1. Think about a good idea for your press release: develop a topic that is relevant to your company, provides interesting information and attracts readers.
2. Focus on the most important facts: Try to capture the essence of the message in one sentence, and use the rest of the press release to add more information.
3. Use an introductory headline: Write a headline that piques the reader's interest and reflects the topic of the press release.
4. Compose the body of the text: Follow the structuring rules of a press release to ensure that all information is complete. Follow a simple structure that includes an introduction, details, quotes and a call-to-action.
5. Don't forget to include your contact information: Include your contact information at the end of the text to prevent journalists from not reaching out to you.
6. Proofread and publish your article: Check your article for spelling and grammatical errors and make sure it is interesting and informative. Then publish your press release on your website, blog, or through a press release service.

Fischer | Data Science. is completely committed to the Pareto principle. This states that 80% of the achievable effect can already be achieved with 20% of the money or time invested. Conversely, this means that each additional euro invested or each additional hour of work invested potentially brings less and less additional return or has less and less effect - regardless of how many more resources are actually used. In other words, in order to achieve the last 20% of the possible result, a multiple must be invested.
