Press Release Cost and Pricing

When people ask about press release cost, they are often comparing two very different things: the price of writing the release and the price of sending it through a newswire. Those are separate bills from separate companies. This page explains how we price the writing, what pushes a quote up or down, and how press release pricing works if you announce news every month.

Key takeaways

Writing a release and distributing it are separate costs, and wire fees are paid to the wire service.
Research, interviews and the number of approvers shape a quote far more than word count does.
Single releases get a fixed written quote, and regular announcements can sit inside a monthly plan.

Two Bills, Not One

The writing fee covers the work of turning your news into a release: finding the angle, drafting, editing and handling feedback. Distribution is a different service. Paid newswires charge per release according to their own rate cards, reach options and add-ons, and you pay them directly. Some companies skip a wire entirely and send the release to reporters they already know, post it on their own newsroom page and share it with customers.

We do not mark up wire fees or bundle them into our price. That keeps the comparison honest when you look at quotes from other writers.

What Changes the Price of Writing

Two releases of the same length can take very different amounts of work. These are the factors we look at when we quote.

Research Load
A product update with a clear spec sheet is quicker than a story that needs background on a market, a regulation or a technical process.
Interviews
Drafting quotes from a short call with a founder or executive takes longer than polishing quotes you already wrote.
Approvers
Each extra sign-off, such as legal, a partner company or an investor, adds review rounds and coordination.
Supporting Material
Fact sheets, executive bios, a short media pitch email or a newsroom page version all add scope.
Turnaround
A release needed within a day or two may require us to reshuffle other work, which we flag before quoting.

Press Release Packages Without Padding

Many sellers advertise press release packages bundled with distribution, a set number of revisions and a promise of placements. We keep it simpler. You tell us what you are announcing and how often, and we scope only the writing and supporting material you need.

For a one-off announcement, that means a fixed project price in writing before any drafting begins. You know the total up front, and it does not change unless you add something new to the brief. For companies with a steady stream of news, such as product updates, events, hires and partnerships, a monthly plan is usually more practical. Plans start at $1,000 a month, run month to month with no minimum term and end on 7 days' written notice. A monthly plan can also include related writing such as blog posts or email copy announcing the same news to your list.

Ways to Keep the Cost Down

The cheapest release is one that needs few rounds. Send the facts, names, titles and dates in one place before we start. Agree internally who signs off, and give that person the final say. Draft your own rough quotes if you can, even in bullet points, so we shape them rather than invent them.

It also helps to be selective. A release for every minor feature dilutes attention. Save releases for news an outsider would find useful and put smaller updates in a blog or newsletter. If you are early stage, the startup press release page covers which milestones usually qualify, and press releases for small businesses covers local news such as openings and expansions.

What the Price Never Includes

No writer can promise media pickups, a set number of articles or a placement on a named site, so we do not price on that basis. You own the finished copy outright and can send it through any wire or contact list you choose. Agencies buying releases for their own clients can read about our white label press release option.
