As you may have heard, SBWire has changed its name to ReleaseWire. I wanted to share with you the reason for this change as well as provide you with some insight to our future plans.

You can view the press release we issued regarding this exciting change here. We also created a FAQ which can be viewed here.

In 2005 the founding team of SBWire set out to develop a new online newswire service which was full featured and yet affordable to small businesses. Our goal was realized as thousands of small businesses began using SBWire to distribute their press releases, multimedia and related content.

Later, we expanded our product offerings to include powerful media engagement services such as our media focused contact relationship management application, online newsroom hosting and a full social networking platform.

In recent years, we have had many medium-sized and larger businesses begin to use SBWire with great results. We have, however, many medium-sized businesses have told us that they have not moved forward with using our service because they understood it to be only available to small businesses.

Today, we are changing our name to make it clear to businesses of all sizes that ReleaseWire is ready to help them work to achieve better media engagement results.

Additionally today, we are announcing that all clients of ReleaseWire will now have a dedicated account manager who will be available to assist with any questions they may have regarding their ReleaseWire account.

In the next few days, our account management team will be reaching out to current clients to introduce themselves.

If you are a current ReleaseWire client, we encourage you to check out the many features we include with our press release distribution services and let us know if you have any questions on how to use them.
