Communicators Can Create More Effective Press Releases
(HONG KONG, Aug. 3, 2020 PRNewswire=연합뉴스) Today, Cision released The State of the Press Release - a new report that provides PR professionals with press release best practices and insight into how COVID-19 has had an impact. To discover the results, Cision analyzed more than 100,000 press releases in the U.S. distributed through PR Newswire's distribution network between June 2019 - May 2020.

The report is a follow-up to Cision's 2020 State of the Media [https://misc.prnasia.com/atd/custeventreg.php?event_id=482&utm_source=Multimedia-Content-Guide&utm_medium=press_release&utm_campaign=2020-sotpr ], which was published in April and revealed how PR professionals can better work with the media.
"The State of the Press Release felt like an especially important piece of content that Cision could provide PR professionals in this new environment we're continuing to adapt to," said Lucie Vietti-Curtis, Director of Content and Comms at Cision. "The role of the press release is increasingly important in this landscape, as businesses look for trustworthy ways to disseminate vital information. Measuring the effectiveness of press releases has also become crucial to our customers, as those metrics ultimately inform their overall media strategy, empowering them to do their job better."
The State of the Press Release covers a range of topics around best practices including:
- The most effective times to publish
- How to improve engagement
- Monitoring your audience
- Investor Relations
- Press release benchmarks
Several key findings on how COVID-19 changed the press release include:
- 48% of total press releases distributed by PR Newswire from March - May 2020 mentioned COVID-19
- Compared to 2019, travel-related press releases were down 36%, while infectious disease control saw a large spike, up 3,140%
- Corporate social responsibility press releases were up 54%, and public safety was also up, at 66%
Cision's State of the Press Release results were developed from data that was collected using multiple sources including Google Analytics, Visibility Reports, and Cision's proprietary press release processing software.
