Business Press Releases Generate Profits All Year



Business Press Releases Generate Profits All Year

     Kansas City—Freelance writer and internet marketer Phyllis Edson said today that press releases can be used year round by most businesses as a fast, inexpensive way to generate business.  
     Business owners can use press releases and use current conditions to generate interest and business.  For example, lawncare and landscaping companies can capitalize on extreme weather conditions to distribute a press release on the long-term effects of the weather and what people should do to protect their lawns and gardens.  “In a year, a lawncare company could put out multiple press releases just by commenting on the effects of the weather,” said Edson. 
     This type of press release effort also generates media interest, she said.  “Local media is always in need of experts in different fields and industries.  A few press releases which showcase your knowledge is likely to get you some interviews with the media now and in the future,” said Edson.

Edson Research, LLC, provides research and writing services, including training manuals, press releases, copywriting and web content.  Edson, a published author, said she is also available to ghost write books and help people reach their own dreams of becoming published.

Edson said she realized there was a need in the area for a trained, freelance writer through her involvement in the community.  "In the past couple of years, I have become more active in the local community and area organizations.  During this time, I've been asked to write a training manual, a few grants and some other projects by the organizations I've been involved with.  This gave me the courage to start my own professional writing business," she said.

She said she hopes to use her writing to not only pursue her own dreams but to help others pursue theirs as well.  "I have such respect for the people who run their own businesses, but frequently they don't have the staff or time to write articles, press releases or other pieces in order to further the work their organizations do.  Hopefully, I can provide a service to them," said Edson.
