Keep it short – a pitch email about your company should be under 150 words

Make sure you:
Tell why the Journalist / Blogger / Communicator (and their readers) should care about your company / technology
Have a clear business model Solve a pain (a ‘must have’ instead of a
‘nice to have’)

If someone can make an introduction to the Journalist / Blogger / Communicator, ask them to do so (provided it’s someone whom the Journalist / Blogger / Communicator respects).

This is the only slide about PR agencies:
Please hire someone who knows PR to help you announce funding because funding announcements get the most press coverage (Sorry Globes / The Marker, but if you’re targeting countries outside of Israel, don’t give the story exclusively to the Israeli press).
