Firefly pioneered the electronic delivery of information to the media. Our
Internet Press Centre (IPC) allows us to manage a virtual press office for each
of our clients within the Firefly web site. Press releases, high-resolution
images and background information on each client is stored in an exclusive area
on the site. The site is an invaluable resource for the media looking for
information on specific clients or general information on a certain topic
area.
The IPC is also our main distribution tool. We email news releases to
carefully managed lists of journalists and give them the option to return to the
site, via a link in the email, to read any relevant background information, or
download a suitable image. The feedback from journalists about the system has
been very positive and clients appreciate having a fully managed online press
centre as part of any Firefly programme.
