Elham P. Mohammadi writes for Entrepreneur writes about how entrepreneurs can work more effectively with the business media.
Mohammadi writes, “When a journalist or a media writer is approached by a startup, the first thing they usually do is to check the company’s website. Here’s what you can do to make their life easier:
“Write a short, straightforward bio for your company. Most of the time, there’s no need to be intentionally ambiguous, get philosophical, or use technical terms when presenting your company.
