Pitching your client or company’s new gadget to a tech-centric media outlet?

Sure would be nice to catch the eye or the ear of an influential journalist, wouldn’t it? The kingmakers in the industry—those writers and editors who can move millions of units with a single tweet or blog post.

Of course, the challenge is not only in writing a killer pitch, but also in identifying those influencers. PRSourceCode, a company that provides services for tech PR pros, is trying to take care of that for you.
