Journalists are busy people, bombarded with story ideas and press releases every day. For your news story to stand out and get noticed it needs to get many things right – be relevant, specific, interesting enough, with a catchy headline etc. It also needs to have the right images.

You need to be prepared for all types of media, with images that are small enough for website and email use – and large enough for print.
