Frequently asked questions
Why ask for a deadline?
Press requests are often time-sensitive. A deadline field lets you sort by urgency and reply to reporters before their story goes to print.
Can I route these to a specific email?
Yes. In Formstork you can send this form's submissions to a dedicated press address or a shared team inbox, separate from your general contact form.
Should I add a phone number field?
It helps for fast follow-ups on breaking stories. Add an optional tel field if your team prefers to call reporters back rather than email.
