Position your spokesperson as a credible industry expert through professionally executed media tours that connect your story with broadcast television and radio or podcast hosts nationwide. We’ll develop a customized media tour strategy that generates meaningful interviews and measurable media exposure.
Why Media Tours Matter
People trust experts.
Whether they're watching the morning news, listening to their favorite radio station or tuning into an industry podcast, audiences place greater confidence in information delivered through trusted media sources. That's why media tours remain one of the most effective ways to earn attention, build credibility and tell your story.
Instead of hoping journalists discover your news, The PR Newswire Media and Content Strategy team (also known as MultiVu) proactively connects your spokesperson with media outlets seeking timely, relevant content. The result is authentic conversations that educate audiences while positioning your organization as a trusted voice.
Why Media Tours Continue to Deliver Results
A successful media tour transforms one spokesperson interview into dozens of earned media opportunities.
Rather than scheduling interviews one at a time, the Media and Content Strategy team coordinates a series of back-to-back interviews with carefully matched media outlets, maximizing efficiency while dramatically increasing your campaign's reach.
Media tours help organizations:

A Media Tour is a series of scheduled interviews that connect a spokesperson with multiple media outlets in a single campaign. Media tours can include television, radio or podcast interviews and are designed to maximize media exposure while efficiently using a spokesperson's time.
A Satellite Media Tour features television interviews conducted from a professional broadcast studio or a remote or virtual location, while a Radio Media Tour consists of interviews with radio stations conducted by phone or online connection. Both allow one spokesperson to reach multiple media outlets in a short period.
The number of interviews depends on your topic, spokesperson, target audience and campaign objectives. Our team develops customized programs designed to maximize relevant media opportunities and audience reach.
Media tours are ideal for product launches, healthcare awareness campaigns, consumer education, lifestyle trends, seasonal promotions, research or survey results, nonprofit initiatives and public affairs campaigns.
