Behind The Scenes On Tin Shingle Making The Media Contacts Better

Tin Shingle is an Idea Center for many who want to be featured in social and news media. We are always tweaking things under the hood, and have some new looks coming for you in our Media Contact Idea Center, courtesy of our Media Contacts Boss, Kat Stoutenberg, who is a maker herself, and quite obsessed with databases.

In the coming weeks, we are going to have a regular email that highlights random amazing media contacts from our database that you may never have imagined were there. But could be perfect fit for an idea from you!

The best way to search for needles in a haystack in Tin Shingle's Media Contact Idea Center is to search by Area of Interest. You can cross-reference between that and a specific media outlet, but we encourage you to dive down rabbit holes of Areas of Interest. If you have any favorites you think we should know about, please share them anytime! Even if that favorite is you (are you producing content?)!

To view the full details of these Media Contacts, you must be a member of Tin Shingle. Join today!
