Mastering Subject Lines with Helena Maniglia from Reboot Online

Season 1 · Episode 7

Thursday, June 13, 2024 • Duration 37:25

Welcome to the BuzzStream podcast!

In this episode, Vince Nero chats with Helena Maniglia, Head of Digital PR at Reboot Online.

Dive into the world of crafting effective subject lines for your digital PR campaigns with insights from Helena's comprehensive study.

Timestamps:

00:00:00 - Intro

00:01:07 - Can you lay out the methodology for your study?

00:02:35 - Are those headline types primarily what you all send at Reboot?

00:03:22 - What industries did you send to?

00:04:05 - Why do you think subject lines with questions have had a 13 percent lower open rate than headlines without questions?

00:04:43 - Could you give us an example of a question subject line?

00:06:29 - So, if I were writing a post about, say, the 10 best beaches in the UK, what would a subject line question be?

00:08:30 - Why do you think open rates weren't impacted by subject lines with keywords like data, study, or survey?

00:09:34 - Did you test anything like including the word "exclusive"?

00:10:24 - Are there any other keywords besides "survey" or "data" that people should avoid?

00:11:37 - Can you clarify what you mean by a listicle subject line?

00:13:28 - Why do you think buzzwords helped open rates?

00:14:48 - Using our beaches example, are you saying it would make sense to try to find some type of event or buzzword that you can kind of tie that to?

00:16:20 - Is it better to tie these keywords or buzzwords in the ideation stage, or do you find it doesn't really matter?

Mastering Reactive Digital PR with Mark Rofe

Season 1 · Episode 6

Friday, May 31, 2024 • Duration 45:09

This podcast episode explores reactive PR with digital PR expert Mark Rofe. Join us as Mark delves into: 🔥 The Warren Buffet approach to PR and finding the sweet spot for reactive PR pitching. 🔥 Strategies for planned and unplanned reactive PR. 🔥 Tips for high-quality, relevant pitches tailored to journalists' interests.

And much more. Some major takeaways for me are: 1. Reactive PR can be divided into planned (e.g., holidays, scheduled events) and unplanned (e.g., unexpected company layoffs, natural disasters) components. Prepare for both types to maximize opportunities. 2. High-media-interest topics are likely to get more coverage but are also more competitive. Low-media-interest topics might yield fewer but more targeted placements. 3. The window of opportunity can be very short, sometimes just a few hours. Being plugged into real-time updates and having pre-prepared comments can help. 4. For planned events, prepare different potential comments in advance and get pre-approval from clients. This allows you to react instantly when the event occurs. 5. Create a list of journalists who have covered similar stories in the past. This list should be updated regularly to account for their roles or beats changes. 6. Focus on sending high-quality, relevant pitches rather than mass emailing. Tailor your pitches to the journalists’ interests and recent work to increase the chances of coverage. 7. To ensure that the comments or insights you provide are authoritative and relevant, ask, “Would I (or your client) be comfortable talking on TV about this topic?” 8. Include relevant keywords in your email subject lines and comments. This increases the likelihood that journalists will find your past pitches when searching for sources on similar topics in the future. Time Stamps: 00:00:00 - Introduction
00:01:41 - Differentiating Newsjacking and Reactive PR
