Mynewsdesk Content has created good video content for a good price

That it is a platform that so many use that it is easy to drown with all publications Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mynewsdesk solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have a simple way to publish all our content in one place and to showcase it on our website Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Ella Sjöström Ollas of Mynewsdesk

Hi,

Thank you for sharing. We are very happy to hear that you are satisfied with our in-house content department, it's a service we are very proud to provide!

On our story site https://www.mynewsdesk.com/stories/stories all the news published via us is gathered, so you are very correct that it's a very high quantity (although that is a big part of the organic SEO that all our customers get in the package!). Did you know that Mynewsdesk has a function to send exclusive news to a selected list of contacts? If you haven't yet, I would also suggest checking out our add-on Audience Builder, which allows you to find contacts outside of the network that comes with using Subjects.

All the best,

The team at Mynewsdesk

I reach many much easier than via mail Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Ella Sjöström Ollas of Mynewsdesk

Hi there,

Thank you for letting us know your thoughts! We are very happy to hear that you are pleased with our reach and journalist data base.

To navigate from our story page to your own dashboard, you press log in in the top right corner. Once logged in, you press the cogwheel on the top right and then newsroom settings to change your boiler plate. The question regarding screen shot of login Im not sure I understand, but if you reach out to support@mynewsdesk.com they will surely have an answer for you!

All the best,

The team at Mynewsdesk

Thanks a lot for sharing your thoughts. We at Mynewsdesk are very proud of our library and to be able to share industry knowledge for free, glad you find it valuable!

What do you like best about Mynewsdesk?

It might work as well as they said. But does not fit our strategy Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mynewsdesk?

Just as the last reviewer we hit the fact that they use a writing that will extend the contract for 1 year if you forgett to terminate it 3 month before next automatic renewal.

We are now stuck in this situation. Have barely used the product for the last year, and are now stuck for another year cause of this. A way that are against the law in Sweden in b2c contracts (if you don't give an heads up before time for your last opportunity to terminate the contract before renewal) but still legal in b2b contracts.

Does the company itself believe in its product, if they have to lock in their customers in this way? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mynewsdesk solving and how is that benefiting you?

Realized that you allways have to read the contract carefully before you sign with companies like this Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mynewsdesk?

Their services works as it says on their website. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mynewsdesk?

Warning! If you are considering using MyNewsdesk services, be sure to keep track of the notice period. They still use the contract to be extended for 1 year if you fail to terminate it 3 months before the contract expires. Old fashioned method of locking customers in. Unfortunately we are stuck for another year but I have to blame myself for going the trick from the beginning. Now we have terminated the agreement 12 months before it expires so now we will get out of it. Just wait and pay for a year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mynewsdesk solving and how is that benefiting you?

The lesson I have learned is the some company's still uses these kinds of terms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
