MyPRGenie Launches Version 2.0 and Adds Social Networking and Publicity Engine

Last October we interviewed MyPRGenie CEO Miranda Tan at her office in NYC. MyPRGenie offers a way for companies to distribute their press releases for free or low cost depending on the selected options. Today MyPRGenie is launching the 2.0 version of their platform.

Miranda notes that the updated service is a, "social media communication platform and publicity engine". When you create an account on MyPRGenie, you can search a database of 550,000 press contacts for distribution. The contacts come from a new partnership with PR Newswire. The goal of the new version is to allow PR professionals and companies can use our platform to connect, manage and track all their PR outreach. 

MyPRGenie will also allow companies to upload media/text files into a company news portal which journalists and writers can pick up when needed for a story.

Perhaps this new version of MyPRGenie could be exactly what I’ve suggested regarding conferences. Create a conference portal where all companies post their information and journalists/bloggers can login and select the information and companies they are interested in meeting and/or learning more about.
