How can you get your clients in the local news?

BubbleLife makes this very easy with BubbleLife Connect.

• You can easily self-submit a promotion, announcement, event or an interesting article on behalf of your client.
• You post one time to access our editors for distribution on multiple communities.
• You have the ability to set up multiple clients with your one login.  
• Use your primary email so they are all under your profile.

Because we get thousands of submissions a day, self-submission gets your news into our queue. We do not publish anything we receive by email.

Our editors are always looking for good content for BubbleLife, but they want content that is local, relevant and interesting. At the end of the day, our duty is to our readers. We don’t want the typical boring press release or an obvious advertisement.

• Here is a writing guide and a step-by-step posting guide.
