How to extend the life and value of your media coverage

by | Sep 28, 2017 | MarketSmart Newsletters

The professional publicists at Media Relations Agency are known for arranging national, regional and local publicity for our clients. These days, publicity is only part of the most successful integrated marketing campaigns. We highly recommend extending the life and value of your media coverage by funneling it into your digital marketing. It’s timely, targeted and cost effective. And it can keep your product in front of a lot more customers.

When trusted third parties, such as the media or other influencers, are saying favorable things about your product, it’s becoming more natural for businesses to share that good news with followers through digital marketing. Let’s say we arrange to have your product featured on a national morning TV show. Why not use that video clip to get your customers’ attention by turning it into easily shareable content? And upload it to your YouTube channel so that you can link to it in the future. Media Relations’ digital marketing experts make it easy to repurpose your publicity.

  • Wrappers. We can prepare a blog about the media coverage for your website that will pique readers’  interest, and motivate them to watch, read or listen to your story. Our writers always include a call to action, whether that’s to purchase the product, attend a seminar, sign up for your newsletter or find more information.
  • Online ad campaigns. A great TV clip or magazine article can be used by our ad experts to create a  targeted online ad campaign. By promoting the story, we draw attention to your product and share what the media is saying about it. Online advertising campaigns can funnel your customers to your website, ultimately leading them to your sales page.
  • Social media. You can also use that publicity in social media posts. Whether it’s Facebook, Twitter, YouTube or LinkedIn, we can write short, pithy posts that will draw readers into reading your article, or viewing or listening to your clip.
  • Emails and newsletters. You’re probably gathering followers’ contact info on your website. Why not promote your media coverage to the people who have expressed interest in your product? We can write an email or newsletter and embed your media coverage into the content, to be shared with your database.

There’s plenty of room to maximize the power of your publicity through digital media. It can capture audiences who may have missed the media coverage when it first came out.

Robin will coordinate the writing for your newsletters, social media posts, website, blogs, newsletters and press releases. “I like interviewing clients and spokespeople, hearing their stories, getting to know their personalities and listening to how they phrase their thoughts,” she says. “It’s fun to transform what I’ve learned from those conversations into media-grade content.” Robin enjoys shaping content to ensure that the message will be clearly received. “When someone understands the relevance of what they’re writing and can position it properly for their audience, their work tends to be more convincing and on point. I’m fortunate to have a very diverse background, which gives me a good perspective whenever we bring on a new client.” An IABC- and Mercury-award winner, Robin says her practical experience in the health sciences has proven particularly beneficial as she interprets clients’ scientific information for mainstream media. “But it’s no longer sufficient to write well,” she cautions. “As marketers, we must now comply with the intricacies of digital marketing. That involves a whole set of rules, which are constantly evolving.”
