Why pitch local newspapers first
Local news is the most reachable coverage for small businesses, founders and freelancers. Local editors need stories about their own city, and a local angle beats a generic national pitch almost every time.
- Give it a local hook: a new office or store, local jobs, a local customer story, a city-level data point, an event.
- Pitch the newsroom, not a random reporter: most local outlets have one general news desk address that editors read daily.
- Keep it short: under 150 words, with the news in the first line. Use the free media pitch generator to draft it.
