Can A Press Release Make You Sales?

You wouldn’t think it possible, but a press release can lead to sales. You want to write your press release as if you are writing a news story. You don’t want it to appear as a blatant sales pitch. You aren’t trying to sell through your press release. You are just conveying important information about your business that can help potential customers make an informed decision about whether you might have what they need, or not.

The way a press release can make you sales is pretty interesting. You are actually writing the press release for the media, not the public. But any member of the public can see your press release as you wrote it. This is quite unlike the way press releases were handled before the Internet. In those days, you wrote your press release to the editor and the editor decided whether it was newsworthy or not. Today, you write your press release for the news and media editor, but any one can judge for him or herself as to its value.

That’s because a well-optimized press release can rank just as high, or higher, than other content for the right keywords. If this happens and someone looking for your particular information can get your press release in the results page of their search query. Consumers have a less critical eye with regard to newsworthy content. While news and media organizations in your industry can reject the press release for various reasons, a consumer looking for information about a product or service can read your press release and call you because your contact information appears right on the release itself.

So don’t think that you don’t have newsworthy information to convey. You do. Your press release is a sales tool and very effective one if you use it the right way.
