PUBLIC RELATIONS SERVICES

Wondering why you don’t get enough media attention? Media pitching is the key to attracting the right reporter to cover your story. Pliable can help you identify what is most newsworthy about your business or organization and then find and pitch local, regional, or national reporters so they will want to cover your news. Media pitching includes a one-hour brainstorming session to identify and create the media pitch and media list. 

From online surveys to focus groups, Pliable can design and create a successful research strategy prior to your next marketing campaign. We will help evaluate your target audience's behaviors, opinions and beliefs. Research is a critical part of a successful public relations campaign. Research can often drive decision-making and leads to an efficient and successful PR plan and strategy. 

Media fact sheets help you have consistent internal and external messaging, especially media interviews. Pliable will create a media fact sheet based on your key messages and identify the most important topics for the interview. Creating the media fact sheet includes a one-hour brainstorming session to identify and create the media fact sheet. 

Do you have a specific product or service for a niche audience? Pliable can help identify podcasts that are listened to by your target audience. Pliable will then arrange for your spokesperson to be interviewed on related podcasts.

If you want more consistent messaging about your business or organization, message maps work extremely well. The one-page document will include all your public relations talking points in an organized and easy layout for you to recall information and sound bites when you need them. Included with the message map package is unlimited consultation during the project.

COVID-19 was a reminder that public education and awareness can be essential for a business or organization. PSAs are important and not just during a public health crisis, but to raise awareness for a safety campaign or charitable organization or event. Pliable can help write a script and produce your audio or video public service announcement. Public service announcements also cost significantly less to air than traditional advertising. 

We will create a 400-word media advisory to distribute to local, regional or national media depending on your target audience. The media advisory includes who, what, where, when and why for the event/news. The advisory is written using Associated Press style. As part of the planning process, we identify what is most newsworthy about your announcement and any images that should be included in the media advisory. 

*Distribution and pitching of the media advisory is also a service Pliable offers.

Do you have media story that you want the news media to cover? We can help. We can provide a Pliable News story about your topic or announcement in a way that makes it look identical to local or national TV media. The best part is you get to control all the content, plus you keep the video footage for use on your website and social media accounts.

Video news releases have become extremely popular due to the COVID-19 pandemic, a period when media outlets, especially television stations have reduced staff and are limiting travel and in-person interviews. A video news release includes everything in a traditional press release, plus a video interview and footage (known as b-roll) so TV stations can use content.  A video news release is great because you get to control the video content!

This is a compilation of your digital and video assets that media will want to use to do a story about your business or organization. Pliable will identify what should be included in your media kit, including your brand logo, image gallery and video content. The media kit is a page on your website so media can get quick and easy access to the files they need. Having a media kit on your website dramatically increases the chances of your business organization being covered by the media.
