When he told me what MediaHQ was, I thought this sounds too good to be true. My colleagues in Cork and I would regularly share media contacts from our own individual databases of media contacts stored on our own PCs. At one point, we tried to amalgamate them on an excel spreadsheet, not realising there was already a preordained solution to the problem in MediaHQ. I picked up the phone to MediaHQ. We have not looked back since.
When we send our press releases using MediaHQ, we know it is reliable. We can hit the right people at the right time at a national or local level. It gives us a level of trust and confidence that the press release is taken care of so that we can focus on the policy issues at hand. The old system was haphazard as it became impossible and time consuming to track journalists’ movements. Now we have all our lists in the one place, and we know that they are up to date.
