01

The challenge

Competitors dominated “best tools” and category SERPs with stronger editorial footprints. Classic guest posts alone weren’t creating brand-level trust.

  • Thin digital PR history despite solid product pages
  • Need for E-E-A-T and LLM-visible brand mentions
  • No in-house journalist relationships

02

Strategic approach

Lead with a story journalists could use — proprietary benchmarks, expert commentary, and timely category insights — then pursue niche press over vanity logos.

Angle craft

One primary data hook + supporting expert narratives tailored to trade outlets.

Fit over fame

Niche publications with real category readers beaten random national spray.

SEO alignment

Target mentions and links supporting priority commercial and comparison themes.

03

Execution

Sprint-based digital PR with pitch kits, outreach waves, and placement follow-through.
