Join PR News on March 13 and learn best practices for email pitching and journalist outreach from a panel of PR pros and a working reporter. In this webinar, our experts will share tactics for growing and maintaining your list of media contacts and writing effective subject lines and email pitches, as well as the do’s and don’ts of reaching out to journalists on social media.

In an era in which we send almost 2.4 million emails a second globally, it can be difficult for PR pros to catch the attention of journalists—whether by email or through social media. To be truly successful at earning media coverage, PR pros must be as adept at targeting influential bloggers and reporters on Twitter and Facebook as they are at writing compelling subject lines and email body text that journalists won’t automatically delete.
