Its audience is founders and executives running ambitious, high-growth companies.
As a trusted, established title, Inc. pairs a growth-minded readership with strong search visibility. A genuine Inc.United Press secures authentic editorial coverage, not advertising, with the publication agreed in writing before work starts.
How coverage in Inc. really works
Inc. is the American small-business and founder title, owned by Mansueto Ventures, which also publishes Fast Company. Its reporters and editors decide what runs; Inc. does not sell editorial coverage. Most UK companies that appear in Inc. get there through a US angle: American customers, American investors or a US launch.
The routes, in the order they usually work
- A story pitched to the right reporter. A founder story, a growth milestone or a lesson other founders can use, backed by real numbers. Inc. writes for owners of growing companies, so the angle has to be useful to them.
- Expert comment. Reporters quote founders and specialists in their stories. A clear, quotable view on a topic they are already covering is the quickest first appearance.
- Lists and awards. The Inc. 5000 ranks the fastest-growing private companies, but it is open only to privately held, independent companies based in the US, with minimum revenue thresholds. Female Founders, Best Workplaces and the other lists each have their own criteria and application windows.
- Contributors and columnists. Inc. publishes a limited number of outside contributors, chosen by its editors. It is not something anyone can buy into.
What Inc. editors look for
- Specific numbers: revenue, growth, customers, hires.
- A founder with a story and a lesson other owners can apply.
- Relevance to American business readers.
Inc. is not in our partner inventory, so there is no guaranteed route and we do not sell one. We pitch it as part of a wider plan whose guaranteed placements come from US titles that are, such as MSN and USA Today.
