Did this PR pro write the 'most amazing press release ever'?

Know your audience.

That's a good tip for pitching any journalist, blogger, or consumer. It's clear PitchPoint Public Relations understands this.

On Tuesday afternoon, the company--which consists of Chicago-based PR pro Mitch Delaplane, an Apple computer, and his dog Sally--issued a press release titled, "The most amazing press release ever written." And it purported to be--that's right--the best press release ever written. How meta.

If you work in the business press and cover PR and marketing--like me--this press release will catch your eye. If you're a company looking for a stunning example of a press release, and you enter "amazing press release" into Google, guess what, Delaplane's prose appears on the first page.

Like I said, he knows his audience.

Here's a copy of the press release. What do you think?

The Most Amazing Press Release Ever Written
PR Professional Distributes Groundbreaking Press Release
CHICAGO, Jan. 11, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Mitch Delaplane of PitchPoint Public Relations has issued the most amazing press release ever written. While hundreds of press releases are distributed daily, Delaplane feels this particular release will go down in history as the most amazing press release that has ever been written.
"I've been in the business for over ten years and have to say, I'm speechless," claims Delaplane. "The title alone grabs you and demands that it be read. Then there's this quote that completely takes things to an entirely new level. I'm proud of this press release. In fact, I think it is [really] amazing."
Typically reserved for company news announcements and other public relations communications, the press release has long been the favored default for informing media about exciting, groundbreaking news. Then this news release comes along and changes everything people thought they knew about press releases.
"I'm quoting myself again because the first quote didn't do it justice," says Delaplane. "If you're still reading this news release, then you know what I'm talking about when I say it's something special. In fact, it's 483 words of pure awesomeness. When it crosses the wires, I believe history will have been made."
The science behind this Earth-shattering news release lies in its simplicity - no science, just pure old press release craftsmanship. It started with an incredible brainstorming session that asked a very simple question: "what makes a press release amazing?" Elaborate notes from that brainstorm were then formulated into mesmerizing sentences, paragraphs and pages...all expertly designed to make you pause and reflect at the brilliance of this press release.
Every single word of this news release was track changed, stetted, then track changed again to its original draft. Upon final approval, it was spell checked, fact checked and printed for posterity. The result is a two-page, 1.5-spaced news release that is like no other news release in existence.
According to PitchPoint Public Relations you have just read the most amazing press release ever written. If you agree, tell Mitch at mitch@pitchpointpr.com or follow him on Twitter at Lifeisamitch.
If you disagree, issue your own press release and prepare for war.

At the network’s I wandered. By chance after your web site, read your post. Very fruitful,thank you for sharing. On the Internet, it is hard to find useful information. Thank you

There are certainly a lot of details like that to take into consideration. That is a great point to bring up. I offer the thoughts above as general inspiration but clearly there are questions like the one you bring up where the most important thing will be working in honest good faith. I don?t know if best practices have emerged around things like that, but I am sure that your job is clearly identified as a fair game. Both boys and girls feel the impact of just a moment’s pleasure, for the rest of their lives.

good article,I’m positive my followers will find this article really useful.

Ugg boots, sometimes called uggs, usually are unisex style of sheepskin boots, made of twin-faced sheepskin with fleece on the inside and with a tanned outer surface, and often with a synthetic sole. Originating in Australia or New Zealand, where ugg boots became popular in the 1970s, ugg boot emerged as a fashion trend in the United States in the late 1990s and as a world-wide trend in the late 2000s.

We cannot deny it was an effective mechanism! Enough said.

It's a fun piece but I stopped reading less than half way through when I realised it was what I suspected: A trick. Therefore, it may be amazing but it is not 100% effective.

Easily, the post is in reality the sweetest on this deserving topic. I concur with your conclusions and will eagerly look forward to your approaching updates.

I'm right on board with that "negative reaction." I've sampled and liked J Lo's and a couple of other celebrity fragrances. I refuse to buy or wear them specifically because they're tied to celebrities that I don't care for.

Unfortunately this release is a perfect illustration of what is wrong with most press releases that come out of many PR shops – it’s all hype and no subsistence. Send out very many 'news releases' like that and soon the press will just consider anything you send out as just more SPAM on the Internet.

@moodydudeaul:

@Ragan, good debate started and i've read every comment below, so interest secured. But, I wonder... Only one response mentions the SEO element you highlighted in the prelude (though a few perhaps allude to it). So, I wonder who 'got it.' Sure, the repetitive nature grates, sure it doesn't tell us much outside of the original aim, BUT... No.1 on Google, flew around the web and is being read and discussed (here and /or elsewhere). Point made? Goal achieved? I would say so... Until the next optimisation change anyway... Well done Pitchpoint! ;o)

Dave Eggers scooped this guy years ago with his cool memoir title:

"A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius"

In both cases, content did not measure up to headline.

Chad:

"Just because a release is attention grabbing, doesn't mean it's 'great.'"

Actually, Dave S., that's exactly what it means. The entire point of a press release is to get attention. Trying to get a press release to do more than that is what causes most of them to be craptastic.

For all of you who wrote, "I wouldn't have read this, except that I saw it on this blog or that blog," I just wonder if you realise how unbelievably stupid you sound. You read it. Period. End of story.

Finally, all of us here, including myself, should have just had a laugh and moved on. Critiquing a fictional press release? Really? How many of you wrote that he has too much time on his hands, without at all thinking about the time you're spending bitching about somebody taking a fun look at our work for once.

It's a funny, satirical piece. Well done, and thanks for the laugh!

If you are going to criticize someone, make sure you have your own stuff together.

In response to Scott Edwards' lament above, in point #3, don't you mean "too" long?

Do we really need grammatical bean counters itemizing errors and keeping track of general cognition, sublimating an otherwise inanely well-composed piece of...uh, satire to their indignant, self-important standards?

Here's my list, Scott:
1) Writing is a craft.
2) Mitch has mastered it.
3) You have not.

TJ:

I like it. It's obviously self-promotion, but it's also educational on the typical flow of a press release. Very creative...

remco janssen:

Brilliant satire, albeit not original. I did this two years ago on Dutch, proclaimed the press release dead. With grammar and stuff screwed up and all. Funny! Created quite a storm. Well ddone dude! This one's even better.

Nancy:

If all you see is the superficial, this is silly. If you can see beyond the surface and if you know your stuff, this shows that he understands press release writing, SEO, viral marketing, and more -- and that he can think outside the box. Oh, and he got 15 minutes of fame out of the effort to boot. I'd say that makes him super smart, or lucky, or both, but however you slice it, it would make me want to hire him if I needed PR. I'm a magazine editor, and it's the first press release I've read start-to-finish in a very long time.

Jessica:

If what he set out to do was grab someone's attention and promote his business, I'd say this was a pretty clever approach. I certainly was entertained.

Dave S.:

Just because a release is attention grabbing, doesn't mean it's "great." Sure, he got people's attention, but what did he do with that attention? Answer: Not much. I expected him to get to the point after the first quote, but he never really made a point. A wasted opportunity if you ask me.

Julie:

I want the last 2 minutes of my life back.

Luke:

This is brilliant self promotion. What's with all the tight-a$$e$ getting up in arms about it? Top Marks to Mitch Delaplane

Scott Edwards:

Anyone who has ever written a news release or hundreds of them should smile at this... Self-promoting? No, more tongue-in-cheek as someone had to do this... and, what, he wasn't going to identify himself? Give him a break.

Wordy:

I hope this is satire because:
1) It includes grammatical errors.
2) It uses hyperbole, and worse, uses it outside of direct quotations.
3) It's way to long and repetitious.
4) No self-respecting reporter, editor or publisher would look at it for more than the time it takes to smile, shake the head and toss.

It IS brilliant. Just check out the comments. Negative or positive - it accomplished exactly what a press release is meant to accomplish: it got people's attention and created a buzz. Hats off to Mitch.

rk:

Ha! Hilarious. It may not be the most amazing release ever, but it was sure the most entertaining.

Mia :

If his point was to prove that the press release is still a viable form of generating conversation and creating buzz - then he made his point. Whether you love it or hate it we're all talking about it.

Kate:

I get what you are going for, but I have seen this done by PR interns more times than I can count. You are not the first or the last to write a satirical press release, and frankly, I've read funnier.

I only read the release because PR Daily (a credible source) mentioned it. Otherwise, it would have missed my astoundingly observant eye. BUT I like it. It's a goof. It's fun. We have to joke around once in a while when we write, especially in PR. Let's face it, by and large we're a dour bunch and most of what we write is dour. Oops. Now I've gone and done it.

Man ... lighten up everybody ... jeez!

This is worthy of more comments because the press release itself is a threatened species. People know exactly what to expect when they see them. They fill space. If news organizations find them interesting, they fill space on news sites.

However, they are not the "highest and best use" of a PR practitioner. Ideally, organizations hire PR people for their leadership and strategic value. The best PR people are able to do many things well and a press release is just one of those things.

Give Mr. Delaplane credit for being creative, but we should be more concerned that the press release remains such a staple. It may no longer be the cornerstone for building careers in PR. For that foundation, the production and use of video and strategies that target the right audience (albeit fewer people) is the way this industry is heading.

Just my opinion, of course. When I meet with students I typically warn them they should spend more time mirroring the style of the organization than practicing writing press releases in class. Legacy media is only part of the equation.

noozprof:

And humble, too.

IMO, the best part - the release is just under the 400-word limit, so he avoids an extra charge and just paid the minimum to distribute it.

Course, I could do something else with that money and often do. But then, I am a failure and know nothing about self-promotion.

noozprof:

And humble, too.

Best trick: he came in under the 400 word limit, so he only paid the minimum. I could find a better use for $400, but hey - I'm a failure and just don't get it.

I have to admit, I was drawn in and I read every word of it. I thought it was funny, having written hundreds of press releases over the past 30 years. The form is so familiar, it lends itself to parody -- like a Tennessee Williams play, or a "hit" song on the radio that has the formula chords: VIm / IV / V / I. I also recently opened and read an email that had in the subject line: Subject line goes here, although that was not intentionally ironic.

Amusing? Yes. Effective? Debatable. I know who PitchPoint PR is now, but do I think he has too much time on his hands? Yes

Slow day at the agency, apparently.

"...and printed for posterity."

That one had me really laughing!

-PR guy who remembers printing press releases and having to use big, fat Burrelle's books for media lists....

Brock:

I have to admit, you got my attention. But after I read this, I remembered why I typicaly don't read these blast emails. Complete waste of time -- usually just marketing companies trying to get your attention -- with very little to offer. I won't be fooled again.

Great post.. We write about how to optimize your press releases for better traction, we've even written a popular whitepaper on the subject.. Feel free to share if you find the content informative.. http://bit.ly/1oI7ih

Thanks again for sharing this post!

I think it's a Pr stunt gone bad. I would not have known about it if I had not read it on this blog. That means he had almost no coverage.
