How to pitch journalists in New Zealand
- Pick the beat first. A general list of journalists is too broad, so narrow it to the reporters who cover your topic.
- Pitch in the local language where you can, and use local data and spokespeople.
- Time your email for the start of the reporter’s working day in their own time zone.
- Keep it to three short paragraphs, with the news in the first line, and follow up once.
