Ben,
Your information is so helpful and up to date. I am passing this on to all of my article and ebook writing students.
Thanks Connie,
I’m very glad you are getting so much value from the website.

Hi Ben,
Once again, you are providing valuable content that helps fellow copywriters. Funny coincidence — my broker just went independent, and issued a (horrible) press release yesterday. I’m going to use this information to bone up on my press release skills, then offer him a critique. Maybe I’ll get a new customer!
Hey Kevin, sounds like a great plan, let me know how that goes…
Ben
As usual Ben, some great information. Will definitely be sharing this. Thanks.
Susan
Thank you Susan, appreciate the feedback and hope you and those you share it with get a ton of value from it.
Ben
Great job, I think you made it simple for people and your strategies do work.
I see people trying to get creative with their press releases and put their contact info at the bottom.
Thanks for sharing good information!

Glad you liked it, Dr. Wright, I hope it helps those struggling with writing press releases, as it’s sort of a mystery to a lot of people these days.

Ben, your strategy sounds similar to Paul Hartunians PR strategy.
He’s famous for selling pieces of the Brooklyn Bridge, which generated him millions of dollars of FREE publicity.
He repeated this several times with other subjects.
Check out his audio here:

Ben, if Michael Senoff has a video interview with Paul Hartunian you may want to post that too.

Mark, not only does it sound like Paul’s methods… they ARE Paul’s methods. (Which I repeat throughout the seminar). I love Paul’s stuff and read his print newsletter religiously each month. And have used his teachings to get lots of publicity in the past and am going to be using it again shortly for another project.
It’s just solid gold, especially for people who have new products and want “proof” elements (media interviews are awesome, awesome proof).
