Client Comments

  • "Angie wrote an awesome press release for us and advised us on marketing and preparing for our first CHA show. The service was professional and high quality. Angie’s experience in the industry was extremely helpful as we created the press release and prepared for the CHA show. She advised us in many different aspects of our business in addition to the press release, and we were much more prepared for the show as a result. Her immense knowledge of the industry is invaluable to newcomers, and she treats every question like it is important. Angie performs her job with the utmost professionalism and integrity. She is a terrific writer and has wonderful ideas for marketing on any budget." -- Christie Welch, co-owner, Two Chicks Designs

Scrapbooking Press Releases

"A news release is often your only chance to make a great first impression. Newspapers, magazines and trade publications receive them by the truckload. That means sloppy, inaccurate, pointless releases are the first to hit the newsroom wastebasket."

-- Joan Stewart, PublicityHound.com

[PLEASE NOTE: WE ARE NOT CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW MARKETING CLIENTS.]

Here at Scrappy Marketing Solutions, we have a deep understanding of news value in the scrapbooking industry. We know what the media wants to see in a press kit, because we work with and in the media. And as scrapbookers, we are your target market!

We can expertly design your press kit to catch the attention of editors in the crafting industry. My expertise and insider insight will provide you with all the essential elements you need for an effective press kit (and at a fraction of the price of a commercial public relations agency).

What makes a successful press kit? Let's consider the goals of a press kit:

  • Awareness: You want the media to know that your products are available. If people don't know about your products, they can't buy them.
  • Updates: You want the media to know what's new from your company, and what's changed
  • Turnkey information: You want the media to be able to use your information for articles and news briefs, as quickly as possible. An effective press kit makes it easy for them to use your information. Help the media do their job!
  • Jumping-off Point: You want the media to get ideas for potential articles they could write, featuring you and your products.
  • Contact Information: You want the media to know how to get a hold of you, and where they can follow up for more information.

Scrappy Marketing Solutions can help you achieve these goals!
