Connectively (HARO) is going away, here’s how Qwoted can help.
Big changes are on the horizon as Connectively (formerly known as HARO) is officially shutting down on December 9th, 2024.
Launched as Help a Reporter Out in 2008, HARO quickly became a go-to for journalists looking for reliable sources. After its acquisition by Vocus and later by Cision, it was rebranded as Connectively. But now, with Cision shifting its focus to the CisionOne platform—which doesn’t offer the popular journalist requests feature—many journalists and PR pros are left wondering, “Where do we go next?”
That’s where Qwoted comes in.
From Connectively (HARO) to Qwoted’s Community
With Connectively set to close, there’s no better time to join the Qwoted community. We’re excited to welcome you into our expansive network, where journalists, PR pros, and experts come together to build meaningful connections while working on tomorrow’s headlines.
