We'll also need to confirm a few things: --Confirming the quotes in the statement (I'll work on confirming those) --Which platform will be used to issue the press release and who will send it out --Have a readiness in the event we receive any reporter questions for interviews --BusinessWire or PR Newswire will automatically populate the statement once issued to hundreds of 24/7 online news outlets, generating thousands of dollars in companion advertising spend (fantastic) Other things I may be missing?
