PR by stage

What PR a startup actually needs, stage by stage

Pre-launch

A clear story, founder bios, a simple press page and two or three booked features, so customers and investors find something credible when they search you.

Launch

An embargoed launch announcement, pitched to startup and sector press, with booked coverage for launch day.

Funding round

A funding announcement timed with your investors, with the round size, backers and what the money is for.

Growth

Founder interviews, expert comment and customer stories that keep you visible between big announcements.

Hiring

Coverage and a clean Glassdoor page that help you win scarce talent.

Bad news

A failed product, layoffs or a public complaint, handled honestly and fast.

Straight talk

What we will and will not promise a startup

We promiseBooked placements in named titles from our partner list, with the title and go-live date agreed in writing. Live by that date, or a 100% refund.

We do not promiseCoverage in titles outside our partner list, such as TechCrunch or Sifted. Their editors decide what runs. We pitch strong stories to them, but anyone who guarantees coverage there is not being straight with you.

Your announcement, your investorsFunding news must be agreed with your investors and checked for anything that could count as a financial promotion if you are raising from the public.
