My family is opening a jewelry store and I’d love for a local blogger, or editor or critic to come to our business and write a review about our store so that we can be locally recognized. I don’t know how to go about this but what sources should I look for in order to have someone write about us? Thanks
Congratulations and good luck with the store opening.
There are few things you can do depending on your local area. First find out about all the local newspapers and magazine that serve your area. Buy few copies from the newsstand and contact their editorial department or send them a presskit or a press release.
If you have a larger budget then you can plan an opening party and invite all the local press to visit your store. Also try to think of any newsworthy ideas about your store, family, product you sell, charity support, etc.
Besides the print media you can also sign up at local directories such as Yelp.com, CitySearch.com, etc.
