Wellspring
of Life Success Story
Challenge
Wellspring of Life’s wellness coach, Ed Lester, had successfully marketed his
services through networking. Desiring to add seminars to his offerings, he discovered
a PR outreach program was a necessity in order to reach a broader market for
this service. Ed desired to have his message appear in local newspapers as
articles and realized he needed to write press releases. His attempts at
writing press releases that the media would find interesting failed to result
in any press coverage.
Solution
I met Ed at a business networking function and he related his frustrations as
to the promotion of his seminars. I assured him that he was correct in
realizing that press coverage would draw in clients. Good newspaper and
magazine articles are an ideal way to alert potential customers of your
services. However, reporters must feel a story is of interest to their
readers and therefore, an engaging press release is needed to convince them
that an article is worth writing.
After a strategy session we decided to partner with a friend of his who had a
list of media contacts and I would write the press releases. I attended one
of his seminars to understand his service and to develop a voice for the
copy. I wrote 2 press releases, one was directed to presenting seminars to corporations, the other to individuals not employees
of a corporation. These exciting and informative press releases resulted in
an overwhelming response thus filling his seminars to capacity.
Impact
“I find Leona Seufert’s professionalism and writing style superb. Her quick
ability to take information about my company and place it into articulate
prose has enhanced my image in the coaching and speaking areas. Because of
Leona, my business has increased exponentially with each and every press
release sent out.”
