Free proposal:

Send us a release, a brochure, a speech or other background material and we can get you a draft within one week. We can suggest changes that will add to pickup or create a release that will pull marvelously if you approve.

What we do for you:
NAPS provides an easy, cost-effective method of getting your story out to nearly every newspaper in the country and thousands of online publications. Instead of just covering the same top publications everyone else in America is trying to get into, you give your top story to practically all of America’s mass media outlets, in a format editors can easily use immediately. We cover America’s 10,000 newspapers with over 200 million in cumulative circulation, about 167 million of which are in the weekly community newspapers.

Feature news stories are written, produced and distributed once a week with color photo, drawings or graphic.
Distribution: Each story is sent to over 10,000 newspapers and thousands of online publications, including about 8,400 weeklies and 1,600 dailies. And formats include CDs, camera-ready repro-proofs, posted on www.napsnet.com as downloadable files for editors with RSS feeds by subject, e-mails, Twitter feeds, Facebook posts, etc.
Results: 100-400 placements in print and 400+ placements online per release. Clippings come from several clipping bureaus including our own in-house clipping bureau, which subscribes to thousands of newspapers that others don’t. Colorful results reports include demographic information, market ranks, circulation and readership figures, UVM and UVD figures, page views, a map indicating where placements have occurred, bar graphs and pie charts and equivalent ad space cost.

RFR (Radio Feature Release) written somewhat like PSA’s, produced and distributed twice per month. Timed scripts—60 seconds or two 30-second spots—read by station personalities or played from CD with our professional voice-over artists reading each script.
Distribution: 6,500+ radio stations throughout the U.S. for use primarily on news and talk shows. Broadcasters receive CD’s, paper scripts or MP3’s and PDF’s of scripts posted on www.napsnet.com or Podcasts via iTunes.
Results: You should expect about 300-400 on-air placements with each RFR. Colorful results reports include a graphic representation of each placement, verified by signed usage cards, in market rank order with network affiliations, Arbitron audience data, a map showing broadcast market locations, potential and actual listenership, AQH and CUME and equivalent ad space cost.

VFR (Video Feature Release) written, produced and distributed once a month on our 23-minute “Consumer Science News & Notes” Program (CSNN). Unique video format: 60-second segment combining video or animated still photos with voice-over and music. Video is taken from your existing VNR or B-roll. We can add creative effects with our cutting-edge software (e.g., motion graphics, fades, wipes and dissolves), add movement to still images or we can supply stock footage.
Distribution: 1,000 stations, including many network affiliates, VHF, UHF and cable stations. CSNN can be used as a stand-alone CSNN show, the preferred method for about 80-90% of our broadcasters or as individual segments on regular news and talk shows. Quicktimes and PDF’s of scripts of each spot are posted on our Web site. We also have our own YouTube channel.
Results: You should expect about 100-150 on-air placements with each VFR. Colorful results reports include a graphic representation of Nielsen audience data, a map showing broadcast market locations, each placement in market rank order with network affiliations, potential and actual viewership and equivalent ad space cost.

GUARANTEE: Complete satisfaction with the results of each release or another one FREE.
