THE WORK

Coverage in the publications your SaaS buyers actually read

Media placements build brand authority and backlink equity at the same time. Here's how we secure them for SaaS brands.

01

Journalist and publication targeting

We build a targeted media list based on your industry, audience, and competitors' earned coverage — focusing on publications where your buyers read and where placements carry genuine SEO value.

02

Story angle and news peg development

We develop angles that give journalists a reason to cover your brand — original data, market commentary, product positioning tied to industry trends. Stories that editors use, not press releases they ignore.

03

Personalised outreach and relationship management

We build real relationships with journalists and editors in your space — personalised pitches, relevant follow-ups, and a long-term approach that generates repeat coverage, not one-off hits.

04

Coverage and SEO impact reporting

Every placement is tracked against brand and search goals — reach, referring domains, domain authority impact, and where coverage is driving organic visibility improvements.

How We Secure Media Placements That Build SaaS Brand Authority

Brand positioning and media landscape audit

Before we pitch anything, we audit your current media presence, map the publications where your buyers engage, and analyse where competitors are earning coverage. This tells us which story angles will resonate, which journalists to target, and where a placement will actually move the needle.

Journalist and publication targeting

We build a media list based on your industry, audience, and the specific angles we're pursuing — filtering for journalists who cover your category and publications that your buyers actually read. We don't pitch a generic list. Every target is chosen because the fit is genuine.

Story development and pitch creation

We develop news angles and narratives that give editors a reason to feature your brand — original data, market insight, expert commentary, or product positioning tied to trends they're already covering. Content that serves their audience gets placed. Press releases don't.

Personalised outreach and placement tracking

We run personalised outreach campaigns, follow up strategically, and track every pitch from send to live placement. Results are reported against both media metrics and SEO outcomes — so you always know what a placement is worth beyond the vanity of the coverage itself.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a media placement and how is it different from advertising?

A media placement is earned editorial coverage — your brand featured in a publication because a journalist or editor decided it was worth covering, not because you paid for the space. Earned media carries significantly more credibility than paid advertising, builds genuine brand authority, and often includes followed backlinks that improve your domain authority in ways advertising never can.

Which publications do you target for SaaS brands?

We target publications relevant to your specific category, audience seniority, and growth stage — from SaaS and technology press to vertical industry media and high-authority business outlets. The target list is always built for your situation, not pulled from a template. We focus on publications where placement will actually be seen by your buyers.

Are media placements guaranteed?

No reputable agency guarantees earned media placements — because editorial decisions rest with journalists and editors, not with us. What we guarantee is the quality of the story development, the targeting of the outreach, and the persistence of the follow-up. Our placement rates are consistently strong because we only pitch stories and targets that are genuinely aligned.

Do media placements typically include backlinks?

Many high-authority publications use nofollow links or no hyperlinks at all in editorial content. The SEO value of appearing in these publications comes from brand signal strength and domain authority association rather than link equity. We pursue a mix of placement types — some with followed links, some without — and report on the full value of each.

What does a 3-month media placement programme look like?

Month 1: Brand and media audit, target publication list, story angle development, and first outreach campaigns. Month 2: First placements live, performance tracking begins, new angles developed. Month 3: Programme optimisation based on what's converting, expanded media targets, and full reporting on brand authority and SEO impact. You end with an active programme generating consistent coverage.

How long does it typically take to secure our first placement?

First placements typically appear within 4–8 weeks of the programme starting, depending on story angle strength and publication lead times. Some publications have immediate turnaround; others work months ahead. We prioritise a mix of short-lead and long-lead targets to ensure early momentum alongside strategic long-term placements.

How do you measure the ROI of media placements?

We track coverage volume, publication authority and reach, referring domain growth, domain rating impact, and — where attribution is possible — organic traffic and branded search uplift correlated with coverage periods. We report on both brand and commercial outcomes so you can see the full value of the media investment.
