Thx for sharing the information. Face-to-face or phone-to-phone communication really makes a huge difference, I totally agree. So, what's your number? Sorry, just kidding... But I'm following you on twitter now :) thx for keeping us updated! Great post! Thx for sharing the information.

I am about to launch a community wide photo project that will benefit a local children's hospital. I have made a short list of papers and other media outlets to call. On another note, it might help to link back to your previous post. I think that's called Google juice. Timely post Dana.

I came across you on Twitter yesterday and spent some time on your site and was amazed at how much information you share. I do phone media sometimes and when I have, it is much more effective. Last year, when I was still on contract with Kiwanis, I called an assignment editor and told him I was bothered by the photos of empty shelves at Salvation Army and would they be willing to partner with Kiwanis by filming us buying $500 worth of food for Salvation Army to highlight the need. He agreed & it filled 4 carts. I never went grocery shopping with a camera before but it was fun! Thank you again for everything you share!
