2-6 Weeks to Placement

Most agencies leave you on an open-ended retainer. We deliver your first confirmed placement within 2-6 weeks — with permanent live URLs ready for your own marketing and investor materials.

Independent, third-party press coverage is one of the strongest trust signals a founder can put in front of investors, customers and future hires — recognition earned beyond your own marketing.
