How should I write this summary?
News releases can reach more people quickly.
Things to consider:
When writing a summary, think about the information you need to convey, your target audience, and then choose the appropriate format.
One way to know whether you've chosen the best format is to consider whether you can include everything you want in that format. If you need to include graphics, then a brochure is probably a better choice than an announcement. If you want to reach as many people as possible, a news release will probably get the message out more effectively than a flyer.
