    Regaining World Market Share Starts With Getting Physical - And Agile

    - Pitch story ideas they can use. Don’t ask them to do a fluffy, promotional piece on you or your company—that’s advertising. Give them news or feature story ideas with value and then offer to be their source.

    - In a broadcast interview, speak in sound bites; for a print interview, answer the questions directly and completely. With a print interview, you generally have more time to answer a question, but you still need to be concise and quotable. Practice your comments ahead of time so that your message is clear and easy to understand.

    - Be cautious when speaking “off the record.” Expect that anything you say to a reporter is actually on the record, even if you said otherwise.
