Preston Parker, President and Founder of Cach Valley Area Investors Associaciation
A Local Cause to Help Anyone Financially
For Immediate Release
Feb. 17, 2010

Achieving financial independence is possible. By generating sources of passive income, people can become free of the standard "9 to 5" earned income.

"If you don't know how to manage your money, more money isn't going to fix that." Says Preston Parker, president and founder of Cache Valley Area Investors Association (CVAIA). CVAIA was started in 2007 to help people in Cache Valley improve their financial well-being through education and networking.

CVAIA meets every other Thursday at the Cache Chamber of Commerce which is located at 160 North Main Street in Logan, Utah. Membership is free. For more information visit www.cvaia.com

  1. I would put for immediate release and the date at the top and then have Preston's contact info followed by the Headline. Its a bit confusing as it is. I really like the quote you chose and you have it in the right spot. The lead is great as well right to the point, it may be wise to include some kind of definition of passive and earned income in the first few paragraphs. The only other thing I would look at is the "9 to 5" reference, you may have rendered it correctly according to AP style I'm just not sure, so it's something to double check.

  2. I would separate the contact information from the headline and 'for immediate release.' Excellent quote, you may want to add a little more of a boilerplate at the bottom.

  3. I like your quote and the information you decided to use. A little touching up will make this PERFECT!

  4. Straight forward and to the point...I love it. I guess the only thing missing is Preston's contact info. Good job though.
