VIEW RATES, SAMPLE PRESS RELEASES, AND FREE PRESS RELEASE RESOUCES BELOW!!! About me: I'm a Public Relations professional with my degree in the field. I also run a small PR firm (www.jhmattern.com) where I offer PR consulting, PR writing, and marketing communications services. I've been running my firm since 2004, and before that I focused predominantly in non-profit PR for a while, with some entertainment PR / music publicity as well. Now my specialty is online PR, and I've worked with quite a few webmasters here from DP. In addition to my diverse PR work, I've also worked in online media, and have received (and still regularly receive) a great number of press releases. By working on both sides of the fence, I know what works and what doesn't, and how to tell the different between "catchy" and just "cutesy," which is a common press release writing mistake. You can view some of my past clients here. Benefits of Hiring Me: A lot of people here offer press release writing services. Many of them are simply content writers who write you an "article" formatted to look like a press release. The benefit in hiring an actual PR professional (if you're serious about getting exposure, and have genuine news) is that we know how to write "for the media." I coach my clients (at no additional cost) in the best press release distribution options for their needs, and I help them develop a quality news angle where other writers can't (hint: launching a new website isn't newsworthy in and of itself). I also have a pretty strict policy of being honest with my clients. If you simply don't have a news angle, and I'm not able to come up with something (rare), I turn down the project, b/c I hate seeing people spend money on something that won't provide results. The biggest benefit is that I know quality coverage leads to high quality, relevant backlinks from news sources and authority websites, and that's what I work to give you... exposure and coverage; not a cheap article to get tons of immediate crap, temporary, irrelevant backlinks from tons of PR submission sites and scraper sites. I don't have any interest in wasting your time, or your money. Price: $99 / press release (doesn't include distribution - don't ask me for generic distribution rates... I'll only discuss distribution after knowing your news angle and a bit about your site, business, and budget so I can consult with you on options that will actually help you.) Turnaround: Most press releases can be written within 24 business hours, but I promise it in 48 business hours from the time you provide me with all of the information that I request from you. I guarantee it in 24 hours if you use my prepaid discount options for either 3, 5, or 10 press releases, or if you have me under a PR consulting retainer only.

If you need multiple press releases within the next 45 days, here are the discount options you can take advantage of, as opposed to paying $99 / press release. 3 press releases (prepaid) - $249 5 press releases (prepaid) - $349 10 press releases (prepaid) - $599 Because these are essentially retainers, and I have to pre-book time to a limited number of people (stopping me from taking other work), the bulk discounts all have to be paid prior to the start of the first press release. For single press releases, I generally allow clients to pay after the release is drafted. Because of other retainers currently in effect, I'm currently only offering about 20 prepaid retainer spots, and won't open additional spots until others clear up. Jenn
As of right now I only have 5 press releases open for the discounted prepaid retainers. As more clear up, I'll post about that option again, but if you need three or five releases within the next 45 days, get in touch quickly to take advantage of the discount. When spots fill up, they can only be ordered at full price until retainers are cleared.
