Media Feedback

I just received an email which I wanted to share with you all – it’s from one of our clients, the Director of AMEE Easy Software, Matthew Meath. Take a look at the powerful impact of PR!

Hi Ladies,

I just wanted to share some news with you.  We’ve recently had a new client come on board!  In the initial interview she had a whole stack of information on us, most of which was printed from our website. However, one of the papers caught my attention and it was the article on us from the coverage out of the Herald Sun. It was good to see the article impacted her in some way. Thank you!

Internet PR For Men

So where do men really go to find out everything they know? The internet of course!

According to new research by Fox Interactive Media (FIM), 90 per cent of Australian men think websites are more helpful than other forms of traditional media. FIM surveyed 700 Australian men as part of their launch for men’s website Askmen.com.

So what do men really like to research online? Surprisingly, according to the survey, cars, travel, fashion and dating are the hot topics.

FIM National Sales Director, Andrew Cordwell said Askmen.com is rich with Australian content.

“It provides Australian marketers with tools to credibly target and connect with this hard to reach demographic,” he said.

So if you have a client or product which is targeted towards men then check out the website, you might find some handy info about males us women didn’t know about.

The website receives 150,000 hits per month.

Are You Using the Internet to Get Publicity for Your Small Business?

According to an article on Smart Company last Friday, internet use in Australia is absolutely booming, going ballistic, skyrocketing – you get the picture!

So are you using this direct access to your customers to your best advantage? Are you posting media releases on your website aimed directly at this information-hungry, purchase-ready market?

As a small business owner, this is one gloriously sensational opportunity to be getting publicity with your target market – all you need to do is write news releases about your company, products, achievements, milestones etc etc in a journalistic style, post this information to a dedicated Media page on your site and watch the traffic .

Why is this strategy soooo important – firstly, because you’re making your website more content-rich and therefore more valuable for the search engines (ie. SEO) – and secondly, you can offer your target market highly targeted sales messages that will actually help them in their buying decision.

So pleeeease, start using your website as your own unique media channel – and let me know how you go – I’d love to get your feedback.

Anyway, here’s the full story about Aussie internet use…
