When sending out your press release via email, make sure that you include the press release in the email body as well as attaching it to the email. Unwanted email attachments are rarely opened so you often have one shot to convince the user to read more in the body of the email. Your goal should be to ensure that the recipient of the email has a greater chance of reading the content that you are distributing which will therefore increase the chance of pick-up, especially if your release is properly written.

You will want the headline and the first paragraph to be as descriptive as possible and give us much information as you needed for the user to understand what the release is all about. Don’t feel like you need to go into a laundry list of app features for your release. Focus on the features that are most effecively going to tell the story that are writing.

Send your most coveted journalists or bloggers a personal email with the press release and include a short paragraph on why you feel this story is for them. Make sure that your subject line is also catchy so that your email will be opened. You could try to include the publication name and the author name to really hit home that this is not a mass email. Leveraging your story as a developer or an app publisher will go along way to helping the blogger or media rep construct a story which they will want to publish.
