How to find Journalists for your Story

shrayan lakhna August 13, 2021

It’s a crucial step to find out journalists for a good reach of your story. In this article, I will walk you through the steps required to find journalists for your story.

Companies try to reach the public in the form of press releases to communicate changes, improvements, awards, scaling, and other important updates of the company. These press releases are drafted by the company itself in a way that has a positive impact on the company in the public.

Which builds more trust and thereby inbound sales from the public. But hold on! There are middleware people/organizations connecting these companies and the public. They are the journalists, bloggers, social networks, influencers, digital media outlets, websites etc.
