Thinking of doing a Press Release.

Follow the basic Who, What, When, Where and Why formula.

Who: You

What: Are announcing the addition of the Bubble Boogie to your business offering, an innovative and interactive 60-minute performance for preschools and daycares, featuring age-appropriate music, games and lots and lots of bubbles.

When: Available immediately, summer dates are now booking.

Where: Provide the contact info, the geographic region you're serving, phone and website address.

Why: To expand your business; to offer a new and innovative entertainment option for the local preschool and daycare market; it's fun!

Get the basic outline written from that, then expand it to include more description of the program. Go into some detail about what you do, where you've already done it, and the reaction of those who've seen you perform. Get a quote from someone in authority at one of your already-played venues.

Hope this helps.
 
Great idea papa...I remember when I worked at the radio station we would get these faxed to us all the time and we were told to "watch out for them." LOL...(in other words, don't mention them on the air)

I think one of the ways to make them succeed is to try and offer a really unique twist to your services. We see this on the news all the time. I remember stories about a cleaning/maid service where the maids were topless! A maid service would not get on the news but a topless one did! (I know...not too relatable to bubble parties but you get my drift.)

I dunno... I "might" be willing to go top.....:sqerr:
 
Papa: Go for it!

Make sure that you send it directly to the business editor of any newspapers in the area that you want to cover.

If you have any contacts at the newspaper, you might want to see if they can help you get in contact with the "entertainment" reporters and see if they would be interested in doing a story about your unique venture.

...that's exactly what I did with one our (uppity) trendy magazines up here in the resort country. They wrote me back and said it was a "selfish" idea. Well, duh!!!

In other words they thought your ego was bigger than thiers and they wern't fussy about that....

Damn reproters :sqmad:
 
It's a great idea Papa.....it has a real chance to work well if you have a good relationship with your local newspaper. These can be posted in the business section, but some papers will make a charge of some sort either direct/or indirect (require you to take out add in paper)...it varies by the area/relationship.......
