Service · Media Placements

Be the story your buyers already trust.

Editorial coverage is the most trusted visibility there is, because a credible publication chose to write about you, and that’s something you can’t buy. We earn you genuine features in the publications your buyers actually read.

// Why it matters

You can’t buy the thing that makes it work.

An ad is you talking about yourself, and buyers discount it on sight. A genuine editorial feature is a credible outlet vouching for you, which is exactly why it carries the weight it does. That third-party trust is the whole point, and it’s the one thing money can’t manufacture.

Third-party coverage is the highest-trust resource buyers use, and it can lower acquisition costs by arriving with trust already established.
// How it works

A placement we guarantee, at the tier we agree.

Here’s how we promise a result honestly. For each placement, we pitch your story to five candidate outlets at your agreed authority tier, and we guarantee at least one lands. We don’t promise one specific masthead, because no honest agency can. We promise the tier, and we deliver it. And because we pitch all five, more than one often lands.

Five real candidates at the agreed tier, one guaranteed to land, and often a second does too. If none do, you’re refunded, no scrambling to place you somewhere weaker just to say we did.

// What it involves

What we actually do.

A

Find the story worth telling

We dig out the genuinely newsworthy angle in what you’re doing, the one an editor will actually want to run.

B

Place it where it counts

Full editorial features in relevant, high-authority publications your buyers read, matched to the tier you’ve agreed.

C

Editorial, never advertorial

Real coverage that reads as news, earned through relationships. No sponsored labels, no pay-to-play, no wire spam.

// Our process

How a placement gets made.

01
Find the story
We work out what about you is genuinely worth an editor’s attention right now, and the tier it fits.
02
Shape the angle
We build it into a pitch a journalist wants to say yes to, framed for their audience, not yours.
03
Pitch the candidates
We take it to five relevant outlets at your agreed tier, through real editorial relationships.
04
Land and build
At least one lands, and it joins a growing body of coverage that keeps working long after it runs.
// What results look like

Coverage that adds up.

One feature is a moment. A body of genuine coverage, built steadily across the publications your buyers trust, becomes the thing they find everywhere they look, and the reason they arrive already convinced.

// Why us

Anyone can pitch. We land.

The gap between a press release and a published feature is relationships, and relationships take years. We’ve built ours, which is why we can put a guarantee behind a placement when most agencies only promise effort. You’re not paying us to try. You’re paying us for the coverage that shows up.

// Questions

Straight answers.

No, and anyone who guarantees one named masthead is bluffing. What we guarantee is a placement at your agreed tier: we pitch five candidate outlets at that level and at least one lands. If none do, you’re refunded. That’s an honest promise we can actually keep.

No. Every placement is genuine editorial, earned on the strength of the story, and it reads as news because it is. No sponsored tags, no pay-to-play, which is exactly what makes it trusted.

A wire blasts the same release to everyone and hopes. We craft a specific angle and take it to specific editors we know, at the tier you want. It’s targeted and earned, not sprayed and hoped for.

It depends on your plan and the tiers you’re targeting. A higher tier is harder-won, so plans balance the count against the authority level. The pricing page lays out what each plan includes.

Every one. Media Placements is the core of Authority Starter, Growth Authority, and Full Authority, it’s the foundation the other services build on.
