    PR tips and web sites

    Since I went to school for marketing and PR fell in my lap at my current job, I have been learning PR as I go. I rely on many of the industry experts and try to read as much as I can about all things PR. Here are some of my favorite sources for great information. As for tips for contacting journalists, use common sense. Don't send attachments, keep a pitch short and sweet, don't call unless asked to and be sure that you know what beat the journalist covers!  Here's a funny and helpful article regarding contacting journalists: Don't be a flack: Tips for PR workers from the journalists who hate them http://valleywag.com/tech/flacks/dont-be-a-flack-tips-for-pr-workers-from-the-journalists-who-hate-them-200494.php PR News & Resources Bill Stoller's PublicityInsider.com Holmes Report O'Dwyer's Public Relations Daily Online Public Relations PRWeek The Publicity Hound And the best new resource for journalist queries: Help a Reporter http://www.helpareporter.com/
