Press Releases – Drag Racing

Whether it’s time to announce a partnership, share your season review, or simply tell your most recent story, this writer is here for it.

How it works:
• Kelly will work with you to arrange an interview over the telephone (or via email, if you prefer).
• After the interview, your story will be composed within a 10-day window.
• If you have previously participated in an NHRA national event, the writer will acquire a mid-resolution, professional image from Auto Imagery to use alongside the story.*
• Within 7-10 days, you will receive the story and image to share with your contacts who have agreed to receive such materials. You may also use the story on your personal website or social media.
• Kelly will send the press release to her list of contacts who cover drag racing news (media). In compliance with the CAN-SPAM Act, contact lists are confidential, exclusive to each writer, and only include individuals who have agreed to receive this type of communication via email.

When and how you pay for services:
• After the interview, you will receive an invoice for the full amount.
• Once the payment has been received via Zelle (preferred), PayPal, or Venmo, you will receive the requested story.

Please allow 7-10 days after the interview for completion of the story.

Please note: The stories found on the WinLight News homepage are not press releases. The human-interest style pieces found at WinLightNews.com, which is operated by Kelly Wade, are crafted without influence or compensation from the subjects. 

*The cost of the professional image for a press release is already factored into the price of this writing service. Customers will also be permitted to use the photo on their personal social media, with no additional charge, through the writer’s agreement with Auto Imagery. The photo may not be used for any other purpose without direct consent from Auto Imagery.
