Q: Question around distribution options, search and contact freshness
Hello, a few questions...
1. How frequently is your database updated for accuracy?
2. Does search permit filtering eg find journalists who have both "interest A" AND "interest B"?
3. What are the wholesale distribution option differences compared to EIN and ABNewswire in terms of the traditional outlet and distribution? (I understand you have podcast & AIwire options— that may be the difference)
A: Hi there 1. All the time! And we're just about to launch new media databases this month with all new data. 2. Not at the moment but they will soon, this is a good idea. We prioritize everything based on user feedback so send me an email at steve@pressranger.com and we'll get this in the queue 3. There's a huge difference in what we do compared to EIN/AB. You can think of them as link farming...
A: CSV exports are a way to take data out of Press Ranger and import it into your CRM or mail sending program of choice. We advise you not to send bulk emails as they almost always result in poor performing campaigns but if you have experience running campaigns like that, you can do it with Press Ranger data via CSV exports.
Hi! Are you considering offering the pitch notifications in a form so solopreneurs using lower apssumo tiers could also benefit from this? I think there's a pretty high demand for it, maybe offer it in a different form? Any options you are considering?
A: Open to any ideas- what form would you want them to take? The AI to process them and send emails has a monthly cost so it's mechanically hard to include them in a lower tier but I'm open to ideas!
An add-on subscription (on top of the appsumo deal, not included) for a monthly fee would be cool to cover the cost at least (at least for appsumo users). That usually keeps everyone happy: it's better then no option, it ads value for people who want it and higher tier users have it as an LTD so still holds value for them. Thanks advance for considering it! <3
I see in the pro subscription on your website it has 5 real time pitch notifications. Since all appsumo plans are mapped to the pro subscription we should have that available in the deal as well! As per appsumo deal terms and conditions.
Q: Wholesale press release distribution Can I write the press releases in Italian?
If I buy Wholesale Press Release Distribution, can I write and have published press releases in Italian?
A: You can create and publish press releases in any language but we can sadly only do Wholesale press release distribution in English. Here are the full guidelines and docs:
Q: Are there any free press releases or we need to pay for every publication even after buying LTD ?
Are there options for distributing press releases for free with this service, or will there still be costs associated with each publication, even after obtaining the LTD (means if there are any free releases as well ) ? Additionally, could you provide details on any limitations or additional charges that might apply to ensure my press releases reach the desired audience effectively?
A: Good question. Bit of history, during our first AppSumo campaign, we asked everyone what we should build and the #1 most requested feature was to be able to publish press releases at wholesale prices. *But you don't have to use it*. You can use Press Ranger’s media database to distribute your press releases to any publisher or journalist within our network. The distribution service is a...

Can you define for me what CSV exports are.

Wouldn't that be our normal subscription plan? That seems like it would be more expensive for LTD users?
