Frequently asked questions
Who needs public relations support?
Public relations isn’t just for celebrities. Entrepreneurs, nonprofits, executives, startups, medical professionals, and public figures all benefit from strategic visibility. If you have a mission, message, or service that people should know about, PR is how you get it seen and respected.
What exactly does a publicist or media strategist do?
A publicist helps shape your public image, manage your reputation, and secure earned media coverage—meaning you’re featured in credible news outlets, not just paid ads. We craft messaging, pitch your story to journalists, and position you as a trusted voice in your field.
Can you help if I already have some press or marketing in place?
Yes—many of our clients come to us with existing content, past coverage, or in-house marketing teams. Our job is to amplify what’s already working and help fill the gaps with a targeted communications strategy that positions you for the next level.
How do you get media outlets to cover me for free?
We secure earned (organic) media by crafting compelling, newsworthy angles that align with what journalists are already looking to cover. By building real relationships with editors, producers, and reporters—and understanding how the newsroom works—we get your story featured because it matters, not because you paid for it.
I’m nervous about speaking to the media. Can you help?
Absolutely. We offer media training that prepares you for interviews, tough questions, and on-camera moments so you sound confident, clear, and credible. Whether you’re a first-timer or seasoned speaker, we’ll coach you through how to own the spotlight and stay on message.
Can PR help with my social media and branding?
Yes! Public relations and branding go hand in hand. We help develop your messaging blueprint so your voice is consistent across social media, interviews, your website, and beyond.
Our campaigns often integrate: Social media strategy to make sure your content supports and amplifies your publicity; Influencer partnerships to align you with the right voices to expand your reach; Photo & video production to create polished, professional content that builds trust and credibility.
Whether you’re an individual or organization, we ensure your brand story is compelling and cohesive across every platform.
How long does it take to see media results?
Meaningful PR is a long game. While some coverage can happen quickly, many placements take weeks or months due to editorial calendars and relationship-building with reporters. We build momentum that sustains and scales your visibility over time.
No ethical public relations firm can guarantee media coverage—because real publicity isn’t paid placement. It’s earned. That means a journalist or outlet decides your story is worth covering based on its value, not because you bought space.
What we do guarantee is that we use proven strategies to pitch your story to the right people, at the right time, with the right messaging. Organic media coverage builds credibility, trust, and long-term reputation—unlike ads, which disappear the moment you stop paying. It’s a process, but one that pays off in lasting visibility and impact.
