Full-Service PR Without Expensive Agency Retainers
Consistent journalist-led PR for founders, experts and authority-led brands that builds credibility, visibility and long-term media momentum.
£497 / US$667 per month
3-month initial term. Then 1 billing-cycle notice.
Examples of publications where we secure coverage for clients:
Led by ex-journalists, we turn expertise, brand stories, products, services and business news into angles journalists can actually use.
If you can relate, you’ve come to the right place!
You have expertise, a founder story, a product, a service or a business worth talking about, but you need the right media angle.
You want to be seen as credible, trusted and relevant — not just visible for the sake of it.
You want consistent media momentum, from expert commentary and founder visibility to product features, service-led press and business news.
You want clear reporting and honest advice, not vague PR activity with little to show for it.
That’s exactly why we built our PR plan differently.
Our model is designed around helping clients achieve real business impact, because when PR genuinely supports growth, partnerships last.
We focus on outcomes you can actually feel: stronger credibility, better visibility, more qualified inbound opportunities, and media coverage that supports long-term brand growth.
No fluff. No vague activity reports. Just consistent pitching, clear communication, and momentum that builds month after month.
Is this the right PR plan for you?
This plan is a good fit if:
You want ongoing visibility, not one-off press hits
You’re happy to commit for at least 6 months
You have credible expertise, a founder story, product, service or announcement we can shape for the media
You value credibility, authority, and consistency
You can give 10 minutes a day to keep momentum moving
This plan is not a good fit if:
You expect guaranteed coverage in specific publications
You’re looking for immediate results
You want completely hands-off PR with zero involvement
You’re only focused on SEO links rather than credibility, visibility and earned media value
“The real deal — they do exactly what they say they’ll do.”

A Fairer PR Model
Typical PR agency
-
PR contracts are usually for a minimum of 6-months. Sometimes you’ll be required to give a notice period too.
-
Typically, PR agencies charge thousands a month and usually they price up each project individually so you won’t know the total cost to you until the proposal is presented.
They’ll also expect you to pick up the bill for extras, such as postage and packaging, influencer / celebrity fees, event costs and sometimes even journalist wining and dining.
-
Limited insight into what’s been pitched or what’s actually happening.
Us
-
We don’t believe in tying our clients down for 6+ months. PR should be flexible and so after an initial 3-month commitment to get you going - then 1 billing cycle’s notice.
-
Traditional PR is pricey - you could be expected to pay thousands a month. We aren’t down with that and there’s no hidden fees either.
-
Full transparency on activity, progress, and results — all in one place.

What We Do
We use several complementary PR strategies to build visibility, credibility and media momentum over time. Every campaign is shaped around the angles most likely to land for your brand.
Sharing Expertise & Founder Visibility
Turn knowledge, experience and leadership into media authority
We position founders, spokespeople and subject-matter experts as credible voices journalists can quote, interview and feature.
This includes expert commentary, founder insight, thought leadership, leadership and workplace media, industry opinion, practical advice and commentary linked to your area of expertise.
For founders, this can also mean shaping your background, mission, point of view, journey or business insight into media angles people actually care about.
What this does for your business:
Repeated expert and founder-led coverage helps you become more recognisable, trusted and credible. It supports sales conversations, builds authority and creates a stronger media footprint around you and your brand.
Promoting Consumer Products and Services
Get distinctive products, services and experiences in front of relevant audiences
Get distinctive products, services and experiences in front of relevant audiences
This is about getting your product, service or experience featured where relevant audiences are already looking for ideas, recommendations and trusted guidance.
We secure practical, product and service-led coverage such as:
Product roundups and buying guides
Reviews and hands-on features
Seasonal and trend-led line-ups
Service recommendations and expert call-outs
“Best of” lists and comparison pieces
What this does for your business:
It puts your product or service in trusted editorial environments, supports conversion, and gives prospects a credible reason to choose you.
Telling Stories and Announcing News
Build emotional connection and credibility through stories people remember
Some coverage goes beyond products and expertise. Real experiences, customer stories, founder journeys, launches, milestones, partnerships, awards, expansions and business announcements can all create media opportunities when there is a genuine reason for the press to care.
We shape and pitch these stories so they feel relevant, authentic and newsworthy.
What this does for your business:
Story-led and news-led coverage builds emotional buy-in, reinforces trust and supports long-term brand value, especially when combined with expert commentary and product or service PR.

To get the most from us, you’ll need to:
-
PR can take up to six months to really kick in, so you’ll need the budget and mindset to stick with it.
-
We’ll need about 10-minutes a day from you to sign-off press releases, reply to journalists etc.
-
If you can turn on a computer, create a log in and reply to an email - you’re right for our subscription.
-
To be appealing to the media, we’ll need you to have a good brand identity and online presence (especially a website and social media).
-
We’ll need professional quality brand assets including high-res images, headshots etc.
-
Allow us to take the lead and be open to think about interesting angles or stories about your brand that could appeal to journalists and media outlets.

Still Have Questions? We’ve Got You
-
Yes. To protect our credibility with journalists and the publications we work with, there are certain industries we don’t support.
These include:
• Smoking, vaping, CBD or cannabis brands
• Politics, gambling or adult content
• Brands selling or promoting weapons
• Religious organisations
• MLMs
• Wealth coaching or property coaching programmes
• Media outlets or publishing platforms
• Artists, musicians and entertainment projects
• Jewellery brands
• Crypto / investment opportunities -
Yes — your brand needs to be PR-ready.
This usually means:
• A credible website or online presence
• A clear product, service, expert or story angle
• Openness to different media angles
• Around 60 minutes a week for sign-off, feedback and collaborationStart by completing our short form. If your brand looks like a potential fit, we’ll review your submission and come back to you with next steps.
-
The first step is to complete our eligibility form.
If your brand looks like a good fit for the PR Plan, we’ll review your submission and come back to you with next steps.
In most cases, this includes a short Google Meet to discuss goals, angles and strategy before onboarding.
-
No.
The monthly fee covers your PR strategy, content creation, media outreach, pitching, reporting and account management.
Because we focus on earned editorial coverage, not paid placements, there are no media placement fees or hidden costs.
-
You’ll have a dedicated account manager overseeing your PR activity and keeping momentum moving.
You’ll also receive:
• A client portal for tracking progress
• Fortnightly updates on pitching activity
• Monthly strategy calls
• Press monitoring so you never miss coverage
• Clear reporting as coverage landsThe goal is to give you full visibility without the guesswork that often comes with traditional PR.
-
Once you sign up, onboarding usually happens within a few days.
During onboarding, we collect your brand information, assets, areas of expertise and PR goals.
From there, our team begins developing story angles, preparing media materials and identifying pitching opportunities.
-
No.
No reputable PR agency can guarantee editorial coverage in specific publications because journalists ultimately decide what they publish.
What we can guarantee is consistent pitching, strong story angles, clear communication and experienced PR professionals who understand how newsrooms work.
Our model is built around long-term value, not locking clients into expensive retainers regardless of outcomes. If PR is working commercially, clients stay. If it isn’t, they don’t.
That keeps us focused on building real momentum, not vague “PR activity”.
If you prefer guaranteed delivery, our PR Media Mentions service may be a better fit.
-
PR takes time to build momentum.
Most campaigns begin generating coverage within the first one to two months. Once momentum builds, many clients receive around 2–4 articles per month, depending on the strategy, industry, media fit and level of collaboration.
Because coverage is earned editorially, results vary based on story angles, journalist interest, news cycles and publication timelines.
-
Traditional PR agencies often charge £3,000–£10,000+ per month because they are usually built around large account teams, high overheads and long-term retainers.
Our model is different.
We focus on the parts of PR that actually create momentum: shaping strong angles, writing compelling pitches, building useful media materials, responding quickly to journalist opportunities and securing earned editorial coverage.
We are also highly organised. Our systems help us manage admin, tracking, reporting and communication efficiently, so our team can spend more time on the work that matters: thinking, writing, pitching, following up and building journalist relationships.
Because we work with a wide range of brands across multiple regions, we also benefit from experience, shared media insight and economies of scale that many traditional agencies do not have.
That allows us to keep pricing fair while still delivering thoughtful, journalist-led PR.
Our goal is simple: to make credible, commercially useful PR accessible to growing brands, not just companies with large agency budgets.
-
No.
Many pieces of coverage include backlinks, but journalists and publications decide whether to include a link.
The PR Plan is designed to build wider credibility, visibility and media momentum, with SEO value as an important benefit.
