The Impact and Effectiveness of Press Releases in Modern Marketing
In the fast-paced world of marketing, press releases remain one of the most effective tools for generating buzz, establishing credibility, and reaching a broad audience. At Sumo Marketing Group, we understand the critical role press releases play in amplifying our clients’ successes and getting their stories in front of the right people.
Why Press Releases Matter
A well-crafted press release does more than just announce news; it serves as a strategic communication tool that can enhance brand visibility, improve SEO, and drive media coverage. Press releases allow companies to control the narrative, ensuring that the key messages are delivered clearly and consistently across various platforms.
In today’s digital landscape, a press release can reach an even wider audience than ever before, thanks to online distribution channels and the possibility of being picked up by major news outlets. Moreover, press releases help build trust and authority, positioning companies as leaders in their industry.
Case Study: MGM Construction and the Beamish Football Centre Refurbishment
One of our recent successes at Sumo Marketing Group involves MGM Construction and their pivotal role in refurbishing the Beamish Football Centre. The project was a significant milestone for MGM Construction, showcasing their expertise and commitment to community development. To maximise the impact of this achievement, we at Sumo Marketing Group knew that a press release was the perfect vehicle to get the word out.
The press release highlighted MGM Construction’s innovative approaches and the challenges they overcame during the refurbishment. We focused on the positive impact the refurbished centre would have on the local community, positioning MGM Construction not just as a contractor, but as a vital contributor to local development.
How Sumo Marketing Group Got the Story Picked Up by the BBC
Getting a press release noticed by major media outlets can be challenging, but at Sumo Marketing Group, we have the expertise to ensure that our clients’ stories reach the right eyes. In the case of MGM Construction, we strategically distributed the press release to key media contacts, emphasising the human interest aspect of the Beamish Football Centre project.
Our targeted approach paid off when the press release was picked up by the BBC, bringing national attention to MGM Construction’s work.

Press releases remain a powerful tool in the marketing arsenal, capable of driving significant media coverage and enhancing brand reputation. At Sumo Marketing Group, we take pride in crafting and distributing press releases that not only tell our clients’ stories but also ensure those stories reach the right audience.
