Creating Press Releases in Agility

Last week, we posted directions for how to create media lists, add private contacts, and look up journalists in Agility, a new systemwide tool available through University Relations. This week, we’re exploring the tool’s ability to create and send press releases.

We’ve created six press release templates in Agility. Users can choose one with the systemwide header (recommended), or any of the other five with their respective campus headers.

To learn how to create press releases and view the report created after you send a release, see our directions.

We’ll continue providing Agility updates as we navigate this new tool together. If you aren’t already using Agility and are interested in exploring it, send us a note at unews@umn.edu. If you have used Agility and want to share your experience, please let us know.
