How to Write a Press Release Boilerplate

Create a short press release boilerplate that explains what your organization does without promotional clutter.

Editorial note: Press Propel is an independent publication. Commercial links may be affiliate links. We separate syndication, earned media and SEO outcomes rather than treating them as interchangeable.

The boilerplate is the reusable company description near the end of a press release.

What to include

Organization name, core offering, primary audience or market, location if relevant, and an authoritative website URL.

What to leave out

Avoid awards, market-leading claims, customer counts or superlatives unless they are necessary and verifiable.

Length

Keep it concise enough to reuse across announcements without overwhelming the actual news.

Maintenance

Review boilerplate facts periodically so old positioning or outdated numbers do not persist across releases.
