Journalists are working on endless stories that create our world. Those stories shape our thoughts, determine our actions, and can even influence our feelings. While journalists are always on the lookout for new perspectives that shake up the status quo, they often end up with the same ol’, same ol’.
We’re here to change that.
When the media comes knocking, we’re committed to providing them with engaging sources with unique ideas to share; experts that bring new points of view to transform the conversation and create a ripple effect.
Their audiences are eager to hear your perspective, which showcases you as a thought-leader ready to make waves.
Case Study: Financial Security Expert and Author, Pamela Yellen
Opportunity: U.S. News & World Report was looking for tips on conservative ways to lock away wealth for the future.
Solution: The media have their own timetable for when they need experts. In order to help Pamela Yellen be a top-of-mind, go-to resource for reporters and journalists, the Wasabi Publicity team crafted a professional online press kit so she would be media ready whenever the right opportunity arose. PDF press kits work sometimes but they have major weaknesses, including not easily allowing media to grab text and images, which forces them to call and email to chase down the materials they need.
Having an online press kit paid off for Pamela when a US News & World Report journalist contacted Wasabi Publicity looking for a financial expert to provide tips for an article due within just a few days. Wasabi Publicity had all of Pamela’s materials on hand to provide the journalist with exactly what she needed—fast—scoring Pamela a major media placement.
Result: Placement in US News & World Report
Summary: Online Press Kit + Timely Response = Major Media Placement
