DISTRIBUTION GUIDE
Congratulations, you’ve decided to use a Capsule to enhance your
press release. This document will show you how to take advantage of
the vast distribution benefits Capsules offer.
The News Capsule and Picture Capsule are channel-agnostic. They are
highly interactive and sharable units that carry an entire multimedia
message across earned, owned, shared and paid channels. This
means you can embed your News Capsule or Picture Capsule almost
anywhere–websites, blogs, Facebook tabs, publishers’ sites, news sites
and even paid media.
Step-by-step guide to distribution
The News Capsule–and all of its content–can be embedded in its entirety
by copying and pasting a simple embed code into all company-owned
or controlled websites, including product websites, corporate intranets,
corporate blogs and channel partner websites.
How do you implement?The News Capsule offers an embed feature that works just like the embed feature on YouTube videos.
It provides both the <div> tag for simple embedding into a Web page and the meta and og tags for SEO
and social sharing optimization. Pass these along to whoever handles your website(s), and they can
easily embed the News Capsule, or if you have a content management system, you can copy and paste
it into your page editor.
Facebook TabThe News Capsule can be embedded into a Facebook tab and serve as a
social destination for your brands. Contact us for instructions for embedding
your News Capsule into your Facebook Page.
Video DistributionBusiness Wire can further distribute just your video assets on the following online video networks,
using your accounts or ours: YouTube, DailyMotion, Veoh, Vimeo Pro and others.

OWNED MEDIA
Just like your owned channels, the News Capsule can be embedded in its
entirety via proactive earned media outreach and organically via the embed
feature of the News Capsule. This includes: partner websites, affinity group
websites, influencer blogs and news websites.
The News Capsule embeds on earned channels just like owned channels, via a simple copy-and-paste of
an embed code, but now you need to have channel owners embed the codes for you.
Here are a few tips for helping enhance earned channel distribution
When reaching out to media and partners, explain that the News
Capsule is a new form of news delivery that provides audiences
with a fully visual and interactive news experience that increases
overall content engagement.
Include directions on how to embed the News Capsule, including
copying and pasting your News Capsule’s embed code and meta tags
into your communications.
Offer your partners an incentive for embedding your News Capsule
on their channels.
When selecting or creating content for your News Capsule, try to
include content that your audience will truly find valuable. The
more informative and less promotional your message, the more
likely your News Capsule is to be embedded on partners’ sites.

SHARED MEDIA
Do you already have a paid media campaign planned?The News Capsule can also be used as the expanded state of a display
banner, thereby bringing your entire News Capsule experience directly
to your audience as soon as they roll over your banner. The Capsule can
expand out of any size banner or image, but we’ll need to talk with your
media buyers or the online publishers to explain our technology and
discuss their individual requirements.
Don’t have a media buy planned but looking to amplify your News Capsule? We have a number of different media buying options available, such as:
• Display advertisement across worldwide publishing sites
• Display advertisement across local television news sites
• Semantic, native and display advertisement across targeted publishing sites
How to implement? Our partners at NextWorks provide paid media consulting services that can help you integrate the capsule
into your media plans. Contact us and we will arrange for a consultation.
Looking to amplify your videos only? Business Wire can also offer paid video distribution via Tube Mogul and Share Through.
