Who is behind Press Kit 24/7?
PressKit 24/7 is the brainchild of publicists with over forty years' experience. They know how much good media coverage can impact your success. And they know what it takes to get the media's attention. It is critical for them to be able to create professional online press kits so they can be effective with PR clients: and they think the same platform might be effective for you.

What is an online press kit?
A press kit is your profile presented in a specific, professional format that the media is accustomed to using. It contains background information about your product or service, high-resolution photos to be used for publication, news coverage you may have already received, testimonials from your clients, ready-to-use quotes on related topics, and a 'one-pager' with a brief outline about who you are and topics you could address on a radio or TV show.

Why is a press kit important?
Journalists are under constant deadline. They want to see an at-a-glance profile of who you are and what you can do for them. And by your materials, they will judge you as a "pro" – or not. Whether for print, radio or TV, journalists are constantly looking for qualified experts to inform their stories. PressKit 24/7 is an immediate solution to their, and your, needs.

It’s imperative you showcase your product photos, background information and other media documents online for reporters to use at a moment’s notice. Tight deadlines make overnight shipping expensive and some times even unworkable. Ready-to-use, high resolution images and information make it easy for media when they’re laying out their magazines, producing their broadcast segments and coordinating online content. Give them what they need how they prefer it. Reports indicate 97% of reporters prefer content online to hard copy press kits.
