Please do not follow up by telephone.
How can I make sure my pitch is accepted?
- Say something original - don’t rehash what’s been said many times before
- Be objective - if there’s a clear bias or agenda we’ll need to reject your pitch
- Tell us what’s important - not the context - we don’t need loads of scene-setting and nor do our audience. Tell us what’s new and what’s important
What does a great article look like?
- It’s 800-1200 words long
- It gets straight to the point - there’s no pointless scene-setting
- It’s something new or fresh or thought-provoking - it’s not something we’ve seen a thousand times
- It’s made for reading online - no huge chunks of text but light paragraphs with extensive use of subheadings
- There’s real insight - it’s not just pushing forward towards a particular course of action
- There are clear next steps - what should a reader do after reviewing the article?
