Reaching out to mainstream and new media journalists who cover Florida’s capital political corridor just got a lot easier, thanks to a new mobile app launched today by Sachs Media Group. The free app, available on iOS and Android devices, connects users to the entire Capitol Press Corps. For those who live and breathe Florida government – legislators, lobbyists, law firms, associations, businesses and Florida citizens – this app is pure oxygen.
The “Florida Capitol Press Corps” app features contact information – including office and cell phone numbers, email addresses and Twitter handles – for more than 60 Capitol reporters, editors and producers, as well as state agency communications directors and leading political bloggers. The app also provides immediate access to those reporters’ Twitter feeds, as well as news releases and other helpful information.
“Today, instant connection is the key to getting and staying in touch with the people who define Florida politics and the Capitol to all of Florida and the nation,” said Ron Sachs, President & CEO of Sachs Media Group. “For the first time, this innovative app streamlines access to the best Capitol press corps in the country. It’s free, it’s fast and it’s fun to use.”
With the app, which was developed in partnership with App Innovators and is updated in real time to remain current throughout the year, anyone can instantly retrieve the latest news, tweets and news releases – without the hassle of filtering through the native social media feeds. The app is the latest advancement from Sachs Media Group, which enters its 20th year as Florida’s dominant leader in integrated communications. The app replaces a printed guide produced by the firm each year. Download and install the Florida Capitol Press Corps app on your iPhone, iPad or Android device at bit.ly/PressGuideApple or bit.ly/PressGuideAndroid.
