Does the social media news release really work? When you spend hundreds, sometimes thousands of dollars on PR agency services and news releases, do you know if you’re receiving the value you’re paying for?

HubSpot recently conducted a study comparing social media news releases to traditional releases across different newswire services. This webinar will discuss the findings and show how to be smart with PR and understand news releases better than your agency.

This free webinar covers:

  • Why social media releases may not be as effective as traditional releases
  • How to format a press release to get more links to your site
  • What features to look for when picking a press release service
  • What happens behind-the-scenes after you submit a release to your newswire
  • Marketing & PR techniques that are more useful–and cheaper–than many typical PR methods
