The best way to distribute your EPK is via the “Email My EPK”
tool in your account. There you can enter the recipients’ email
addresses (up to 25 at once), include an individualized message, and
click “Send” to distribute the EPK. Your recipients will receive a
dynamic HTML-based message with the front page of your EPK embedded on
it. Clicking on any one of the EPK links will open up the full EPK for
your recipients.  Additionally, you can now receive an email when ever your recipient opens the email, so you know when and how to follow up. Try it by sending it to yourself first! (more…)
