Today, we’re giving you an inside look at our process—how we craft winning pitches that consistently earn placements on top-tier platforms.
Let’s dive into what goes on behind the scenes at PressHERO.
Understanding the Client’s Unique Angle
Before any pitch is sent, we start by getting to know our clients inside and out. We take the time to understand their brand, audience, and industry niche. This process allows us to pinpoint the strengths and unique selling points that will resonate with journalists. Whether it’s a groundbreaking product, expert insights, or a compelling founder story, we highlight the elements that make each client stand out from the crowd.
To ensure a tailored approach, we build a detailed profile for each client persona. This profile highlights their expertise, background, and key talking points—creating a solid foundation for our outreach strategy. This personalization ensures that every pitch we craft is relevant and positioned for success.
Leveraging HARO for Targeted Opportunities
Once we have a deep understanding of our clients, we tap into media platforms like HARO (Help A Reporter Out) to identify the best opportunities. Every week, PressHERO analyzes over a thousand media queries across HARO and other journalist platforms to find the ones that align perfectly with our clients’ goals.
Not every query is the right fit, so we sift through them to ensure we’re targeting the most relevant ones. This strategic filtering process allows us to prioritize high-authority outlets and journalists who are most likely to resonate with the client’s expertise and brand.
Crafting the Perfect Pitch
Crafting a pitch that catches a journalist’s eye is both an art and a science. At PressHERO, we focus on three critical elements: personalization, relevance, and compelling storytelling.
We don’t just send out generic pitches. Instead, each pitch is carefully personalized to the journalist’s specific needs and query. We make sure our clients’ unique angle shines through, demonstrating how they can provide real value to the journalist’s story. Whether it’s positioning a client as an expert in a niche field or sharing a compelling brand narrative, we craft pitches that are both persuasive and timely.
“With PressHERO, each pitch is a crafted story that aligns perfectly with both the journalist’s requirements and our client’s strengths,” explains Maurizio, PressHERO’s founder.
Follow-Up and Relationship Building
The work doesn’t end once a pitch is sent. At PressHERO, we understand that building lasting relationships with journalists is just as important as the initial outreach. Our team keeps in touch with journalists through polite and timely follow-ups, ensuring our pitches don’t get lost in the shuffle.
By maintaining professional and respectful communication, we not only secure placements but also open the door to future collaborations. These relationships are key to delivering ongoing value for our clients, sometimes leading to multiple features across various media outlets.
Securing the Placement and Monitoring Results
Once a pitch lands and is published, PressHERO celebrates the win—but we don’t stop there. We carefully track the success of each placement, focusing on critical metrics like Domain Rating (DR) and the relevancy of the link to the client’s goals.
If a client isn’t fully satisfied with a placement, we offer a free replacement guarantee. This commitment to quality ensures that each client receives high-value, white-hat backlinks that enhance their brand’s authority and SEO performance.
