How our Search Bar Works
It allows you to do 5 different types of searches and quickly find media contacts, outlets, stories, call-outs and much more!
🔹 Media
This is the default search option. You can use this option to search for people, outlets & publications, media that cover a certain topic and even people with specific job titles (like editors, for example). Note: press enter to see all search results.
🔹 Lists
This search lets you quickly find any contacts list that you have created on the system.
🔹 Call-outs
This option lets you check on editorial opportunities — articles to be published and information requests posted directly to the site by journalists, for example.
🔹 Stories
You can also search across Influencing's archive of stories our reporters have filed on the media and marketing communications industries. That includes our Media News, Marcoms News and Epitome columns. (You can also find all our news under 'Community' > 'News').
