PR Newswire 2015 Analysis
It was the first time the head office in
South Korea sent out a multimedia news
release. It was a good try as we could engage
our target audiences with visuals including
videos, as well as localise the release in
multiple languages to boost engagement
and media pickups. We would like to thank
PR Newswire Korea for making our first
multimedia news release a success.
