In order to build up a press distribution list that is effective for your company, a number of points must be taken into account. In addition to the thematically and geographically appropriate orientation or the recipient circle, it is necessary to keep the press distribution list up to date and to constantly expand it. Because the more recipients your press releases or news have, the higher the probability of being considered with your story in an article.

Our Media & PR Database 2022 with over 16,000 entries in Germany, Austria and Switzerland is a good basis for this.
