We typically require a letter of assignment on company letterhead from your editor, publisher, news director or producer or publication that has accepted your story pitch for publication, that includes a date when your piece is expected to run. We also ask that you send your story once it has been published. To allow for proper vetting and planning, members of the press and fellow Public Relations professionals shall make inquiries a month prior to requests. Last minute requests may not be approved; the PR department may decline any request.

Complimentary and discounted products for additional guests and journalists on vacation are evaluated on a case-by-case scenario and usually are not offered. The PR department will determine what is offered to each journalist based on dates requested, employment with established media outlet, etc.
