How we’ll deliver your campaign
We learn everything about you
Our team of digital PR specialists will work with you to learn more about your brand, business goals and the performance of your competitors. By doing this, we’re able to fully understand your business needs and deliver campaigns that will increase your online presence and brand visibility.
Ideation sessions
The first step of your digital PR campaign will begin with an ideation session. We’ll use our experience and knowledge of the media landscape to brainstorm content ideas that we believe will promote the messaging you want to spread to the public and grab the attention of journalists.
Creating campaign assets
Once we’ve decided on a clear campaign strategy, we’ll create assets through research, data collection, graphic design, and any other methods we may need. With digital PR, we not only need to ensure every campaign is on-brand, interesting and unique to journalists, but we must also apply a special technical approach that includes incorporating SEO, scannability and other features like internal links.
Outreach to journalists
After we have created each campaign, we dedicate time to researching potential journalists and online publications that will be relevant to your audience and may be interested in the campaign. Our team runs hundreds of campaigns across different industries, allowing us to constantly refine our strategies to ensure your campaign lands directly in topically relevant publications.
Measure and report
We then measure our success to report back to you and build on our wins, showcasing the coverage of your business and how that affects your bottom line. This will often take the form of a monthly one-to-one phone call with your dedicated account manager.
