1. More Eyes on Your Press Releases
======================================
Remember, way back, when you created a Company Page on LinkedIn?
How long has it been since you updated it?
What new products and service have you introduced since then?
Which employees have left? And which ones have joined you?
While you’re updating it, don’t forget to link to a page where
visitors can see all the headlines on your press releases! It’s
such a simple thing, but something many Publicity Hounds forget.
I’ve been sharing tips here on how to promote your press
releases, and I have almost three dozen other ideas that I’ll
share during the webinar on “33 Ways to Promote Your Press
Releases” from 3 t 0 p.m. on Thursday, June 21. I’m recording it,
and if you can’t attend live, I’ll send you the link to the video
replay and all the bonuses.
This one will sell out fast, and I have a limited number of
“seats” on the line. Register now at

2. Site Rates Journalists
==============================
PitchingNotes.com, a new site that rates journalists, is asking
Publicity Hounds everywhere to create a free account, rate your
favorite (or not-so-favorite) journalist, and join in the
conversation.
This isn’t a place to bash reporters. Rather, it’s a site where
you can give the heads-up to others who might be pitching print
media and broadcasters.
Journalists, you’re welcome to sign up, too, and explain how you
would like to be pitched.
If you know of any other sites that rate journalists, hit Reply
and let me know. I’ll share details at my blog.
===============================
3. What’s Your Burning Question?
===============================
I’m looking for topics for upcoming webinars, articles and blog
posts.
What’s the Number One burning question (or two or three) that you
have about how to promote using traditional or social media?
Hit Reply and ask away.
