... &O Technology Life/Financial Services Glossaries Management Resources & Links Categories Popular Recent All Back Using The News Media As A Communications Tool 4/30/2013 12:00:00 AM by CompleteMarkets Editor , Henry Stimpson This content has not been rated yet. Do you think reporters are human sharks who want to misquote, distort, and sensationalize? When you hear the word reporter, ' does your instinct tell you to utter no comment'? Or instruct your secretary to tell the reporter you won't be in your office for, say, the next 11 years? The kind of reporters who should be avoided are few and far between. The 60 Minutes' approach is a rarity, and it's usually reserved for big business and big government. Reporters and editors who work for local newspapers, magazines, and radio and television stations may not be knowledgeable about insurance, but they're not out to make anyone look bad, other than outright frauds and crooks. However, the media is always on the lookout for credible sources of information, businesspeople who can explain an issue and provide a lively quote. Instead of being afraid of or ignoring the news media, consider cultivating a relationship. Why? When they're doing a story about insurance, you'll be on their list of experts to call.

BASIC STEPS FOR PUBLICITY  1. Choose only one person from your agency or organization to contact news media. Two persons contacting the same newspaper editor or program director will create conflict and confusion. However, if your media person is not available, do not hesitate to call the news media yourself. Getting the information out on schedule is the most important goal. 2. Be prompt in establishing personal contact with the right persons at each newspaper, radio, and television station in your area. 3. Write everything down! Train your memory, but don't trust it. 4. Be prompt in meeting every news deadline. 5. Be accurate. Double check names, dates, and places before submitting your copy. 6. Be legible. Erase and correct errors. Type news releases double-spaced. 7. Be brief, concise. Newspaper space and air time are limited. 8. Be honest and impartial. Give credit ...

... for you than all the year-round advertising you could dream up. One of the greatest ad programs was done by a Denver man who sells beach towels nationwide.The company that makes the towels sent people to see him to find out what his secret was. He simply took high-quality beach towels and printed Beech Aircraft' on them, and then invited people to come see a Beech airplane and pick up a beach towel. No one sells more beach towels than he does, and he's a thousand miles from the nearest ocean. Sometimes ideas like this can hit. If you find something that may work, capitalize on it. Look for a concept. One of the highest forms of intelligence is to take an idea and add to it. RADIO ADS When you're working with a radio station or a newspaper, they immediately try to tell you that you should advertise regularly. They of offer discounts if you do. Negotiate with them. Tell them that you want an annual contract along with the benefit of a lower rate, but you want to spread out the advertising to fit your needs. By having ads air only at the best times, you can get greater impact for the same cost or similar impact for less money.
