Comms: Press & Public Relations
PR can be used as a tactic to communicate information at key times or as part of a strategy to build brand awareness over time. We can work with you on project-by-project PR, or provide an on-going service.
PR Projects
Product launches, press conferences, sponsorship deals, etc. achieve more impact with PR coverage, but do require a great deal of additional work. M+ can produce press material, styled for editorial acceptance including:

Benefits to end users

Differentiating features

Technical specifications

Corporate background
Good photography is essential for good coverage. We can manage photography and use digital photo manipulation to create a dynamic image. Creation of generic branded concept schematics also achieves excellent coverage.
M+ will research the media to ensure that information is sent to a list of relevant publications for maximum impact and cost effectiveness.
The release is then printed onto your press paper or letterhead and sent with the photo in personally addressed envelopes and posted. The release is also sent electronically via e-mail and stored in the M+ client media library for future requests. M+ also recommend that you store all press releases on your own web site.
