CEDIA Launches Newswire-Style Service to Connect Media with Residential Electronic Systems Industry Experts
INDIANAPOLIS (September 24, 2007) – The Custom Electronic Design and Installation Association (CEDIA) has launched CEDIAwire, a newswire-style service for connecting media with expert sources who are qualified to answer questions about the residential electronic systems industry and about home technology design and installation in general.
CEDIAwire is a two-way pipeline that functions as a clearinghouse for reporters seeking expert sources and as a newswire for members informing them of opportunities to contribute to articles.
“When a reporter calls with specific questions about home automation trends in New Jersey, for example, we will activate CEDIAwire and quickly be able to supply that reporter with several expert sources who are ready to be interviewed,” said Jamie Antcliff, director of public relations & marketing for CEDIA. “Members who have significant experience and knowledge on a residential electronic systems topic should sign up for CEDIAwire today.”
Media may also make inquiries through CEDIAwire, which will immediately be directed to the media relations staff. For more information visit www.cedia.org/pressresources. Members who wish to register will need to log in to the member’s only area of www.cedia.org, then click on the CEDIAwire icon.
CEDIA is an international trade association of companies that specialize in designing and installing electronic systems for the home. The association was founded in September 1989 and has more than 3,500 member companies worldwide. CEDIA Members are established and insured businesses with bona fide qualifications and experience in this specialized field.
