Hi all,
Just want to add that it is fairly easy to obtain a "good database" at no
cost. The
information on EVERY print publication in the United States (including 2 page
newsletters that are published quarterly) can be found in just about any public
library (ask at the reference desk). About 90% of publications have fax numbers
listed... It took us couple hours to compile a highly targeted list for our
first
press release (http://www.healself.com/main/press.shtml).
It's been sent out two weeks ago, so I guess we have a month or two untill
we start to
pop up like crazy in "Playboy", but NetGuide editors already contacted us for
additional information :)
Regards,
