Getting your first press mention
Journalists don't cover businesses, they cover stories. Yours is somewhere in: an unusual founder path, a local angle, a trend you embody, or a number that surprises.
Start local and niche — a quote in a sector newsletter beats silence in a national daily, and each mention makes the next one easier.
Do it now
Write your 5-line pitch and send it to one local journalist.
