The headline of a press release will often determine if the reader even bothers to keep reading. A simple trick to create a headline that is engaging and on topic is too work backwards, write the story first and then decide on an appropriate headline.
 
1. Include a photo: Include a photo in your press release to make it impactive. It should be high quality image and not blurred anyways.
 
2. Send it to the right person: Make it the motto of your press release to send it to the target audience so to get better results. A PR if distributed among irrelevant people is merely a wastage of time.
 
3. Follow up: Do the following after distributing any press release to see how effective  it has been .
 
4. Make sure a press release is needed: Do the distribution of a Press Release in write time with sufficient data.
 
5. Know where the press release should be sent: Be it for national magazine, local news sources, trade or free publications.  Just consider well where it is going to be distributed.
 
6. Add an angle: A press release that pulls an emotional cord by appealing to current news, showing conflict or controversy could be a great angle on that.
