But what is press release marketing? And how is it going to help increase profits?Press release marketing, as its name suggests, is advertising through press releases. If you're scratching your head and wondering how a press release is going to help your advertising efforts, you wouldn't be the only one.

These might be just a couple of the questions that are running through your mind. But in fact, it's the answers to these very questions that make press release marketing as effective as it is!Yes, press releases are meant to provide the public with information, and to bring them news-worthy stories.

One major way is that just about anybody can use them now. You don't need to have an “in” at the local TV station or be a huge celebrity or national brand in order to send a press release – any individual, any business owner, any member of the general public can make and send off a press release about whatever they like (but if you're doing it for your business, it better be important. We'll get more into that later.) But also, the media that's used to distribute press releases has changed. Instead of only going to television or radio stations, now they can be found anywhere, from news sites to article director
