Prompt Template
Write a professional press release for [COMPANY NAME] announcing [NEWS, product launch/funding/partnership/event/award]. Key facts: (1) What is the announcement? [DETAILS], (2) Why does it matter? [SIGNIFICANCE], (3) Who is affected? [AUDIENCE/MARKET], (4) When does it take effect? [DATE]. Include: a headline (newsworthy, under 10 words), a dateline (City, Date), a lead paragraph that answers who/what/when/where/why in 50 words, two body paragraphs with supporting details and context, one quote from a spokesperson: [NAME, TITLE], a boilerplate 'About [Company]' paragraph, and press contact information placeholders.

Pro Tip
Write the spokesperson quote yourself in plain language first and drop it in as a placeholder fill, since AI-generated executive quotes tend to sound interchangeable and journalists notice.
