News Media Connection is now almost 5 years old and we have offices in Santa Monica and Oakland, California.

 

We now have subscribed to a continually updated media service several hundred thousand media contacts from which to target your query.  While a number of services send press releases to the media, we can send personal letters and article queries as well as releases from your e-mail.  Typically, you can expect approximately the following number of contacts, though each release or query will depend on your topic, since we target each query based on beats or topics. 

         - daily newspapers (1500)

         - community and weekly newspapers (5400)
         - wire services and syndicates (300)
         - national magazines or with circulations over 25,000 (4800)
         - TV shows and stations (6000)
         - radio news and talk shows (6000)

         - internet media (7500)

         - internet blogs (6300)

       

We can target editors and talk show producers in particular fields, such as lifestyle and features, health and medical topics, science and technology, and business.  Tell us the topic and we'll create a targeted mailing for you.

 

In addition, we are continuing to connect speakers and others with a story to tell to the major speakers bureaus (350+) and have updated our list of meeting planners to include over 7000 planners throughout the U.S. and internationally.

 

See our growing number of kudos, too, from people who have used our service.
