It is more advantageous to you, to include at least two different telephone numbers (one, preferably, being a mobile phone) for the media to use.
We recommend that you inform your Press Office or PR company that you have registered with ExpertSources. You can use their contact numbers rather than your own if you wish.
Yes, of course. When contacted by the media there is no obligation on you to comply with whatever is offered or suggested. You are free to say ‘no thanks’ for whatever reason.
Yes you can and we recommend this to obtain the best results. Within any organisation it is likely there are Experts with varying or entirely different areas of expertise (e.g. a law firm) or spokespeople for specific UK regions (e.g. a charity or professional association) or maybe different countries.
To provide you with the best opportunities for extra media exposure, we advise a separate registration for each one – even though the contact details, such as a central press office or PR company, may well be the same for all.
Discounts are available for ‘multiple’ registrations from one organisation.
Your details are displayed at random for every media search that matches one or more of the keywords selected (unless a journalist requests a specific location - which then takes priority).
You can enhance your listing with the addition of a Photograph and/or a 24 word Search Results Page Biography.
Yes. When registering, Experts indicate their media preferences. You can chose from Information Only, Written Articles, Radio or Television (or any combination of these). Your preferences are always included in the information provided to journalists on screen.
Your registration will not be affected and your personal details (position, contact telephone numbers, email address etc) can be easily changed and updated on site when you log on.
Yes, you may. This is entirely at your discretion. However, there are two main issues for you to consider.
1. How much time/effort is required on your behalf
2. Weighing up the long term gain (via size & demographics of readership/listeners/viewers) if a fee isn't on offer or only a token gesture.
As a rough guide to charging a fee, we would recommend the following:
Important: In all cases, consider the benefits of each opportunity to raise your media profile; obtain additional exposure/publicity for yourself and your organisation; and/or the chance to deliver your key messages to a wider audience.
There will be many occasions when any or all of these are of far greater significance and long term value to you than receiving a one off payment.
No. We have no claim on any fees (or part payment) received by yourself or sent to the organisation you represent.
