  • Increases brand visibility by announcing partnerships and achievements to a wide audience.
  • Builds trust and credibility by associating your brand with reputable partners.
  • Cost-effective as it often requires minimal investment compared to other marketing tactics.
  • Enhances media coverage chances, especially if the partnership is newsworthy or notable.
  • Strengthens relationships with partners, showing mutual support and collaboration.

Cons

  • Requires media contacts to maximize the reach and impact of the press release.
