Letters to media outlets are letters written to publication, television company, or any other mass media that provides news or feature stories to the public. Whether you want to get that media interview or have news articles written about your company or product, writing to a media outlet might get the job done. You don't have to write a long boring story; a brief, catchy letter is all you need to get a reporter interested to hear your story.

When writing letters to media outlets, you need to understand the purpose of your letter and take the time to research the publication or media that is best suited for your subject. Start the letter with a quirky headline that grabs the recipient's attention. Editors and producers receive hundreds of these letters every week, so you need a strong hook that arouses curiosity and entices them to keep reading. Get to the point and explain why the recipient would be interested in your offering. Provide all the necessary details. Give testimonials if necessary. Provide your contact information to make it easier for the recipient to follow up with you. End your letter positively and with a call to action.
