What's the best way to pitch my story idea to a journalist?
The best way to pitch your story idea to a journalist is to keep it brief and to the point. Include essential information about your story in the first paragraph. Feel free to include links to additional resources (like your website or a press kit) if they might be interested. And remember, always follow up after you send your pitch! Journalists are busy and might not have time to respond immediately. But if you don't hear anything after a week, it's okay to send a brief follow-up email to ensure they received your pitch and to see if they have any questions.
