Patch 101: How to Post an Announcement or Press Release (VIDEO)

This nifty video tutorial shows Oxford Patch readers how to post an announcement — including full press releases – by using the free and easy tools available to all Patch users.

Have you ever sent a press release to Oxford Patch and wondered when it was going to post?

How about sent a birth announcement or perhaps an obit (which are published free on Patch sites) or school award — only to wonder if it was ever going to be published?

Well, our Patch sites are designed in a way that is easy for users to post their own announcement without having to wait for the editor to post it for you.

It really is the best way to post your announcement or press release if you are a nonprofit agency, for profit agency, government body or other group to get your stuff on Oxford Patch instantly.

Follow this video tutorial to see how to do this, step by step.

And if you have any questions, feel free to email Oxford Patch Editor Paul Singley at paul.singley@patch.com.

Thank you Paul. I just thought of sending it to you last night. I am going to do my best toRead More videotape it today. I will send it to you as soon as possible. Thanks for your assistance. Renee

Great to see IMTI leading the way into the solar future! I went to that school specifically toRead More become a solar electrician. It was before they had a solar program, at the time it was the E-2 electrical course. I see America has a chance to build prosperity again if we will be forward-looking about our manufacturing and energy strategies. My company, Made In USA Solar LLC, aims to contribute to that in a small way, doing what we can by only installing materials made in USA. Congrats to IMTI on their ambitious solar plans!

Archie, Your wrong. Constitutions were written for a reason not to determine whether it's a livingRead More document or not. Politicians and or Anti-Americans only believe that the constitutions are a dead document. They are excuses to put forth an agenda. Without Constitutions this country would be chaos and we wouldn't have the freedoms we have today. Only in your eye's does the words not apply because you think government can prevent and do anything they want. It's the people that rule, NOT THE POLITICIANS!

That is looking at the Constitution as a dead piece of paper instead of a living document. LivingRead More Constitutions read as if they were written yesterday not over 250 years ago. Is the Constitution living or dead. When common sense and ordinary circumstances show that the words of the Constitution no longer apply then the document is dead. That is what occurs when weapons/arms have become so powerful and dangerous that having them available in the numbers you have in this country is tantamount to ultimate murder and chaos. This is definitely not what the Framers had in mind as shown by the words prefacing the 2nd amendment referring to a militia.
