Get featured on Corporate Travel Media Outlets in 48 hours

Yes, but it's a significant time commitment with a steep learning curve. Doing your own PR involves building lists of journalists, crafting personalized pitches for each one, and conducting endless follow-ups. The success rate is often very low, as journalists receive hundreds of pitches daily. While it's possible to get a lucky break, most founders find their time is better spent on product and sales. Using a distribution service automates the placement part, allowing you to focus on crafting the announcement while we handle getting it published across a wide network.

The cost varies widely based on the method. Doing it yourself is technically free but costs significant time. Hiring a traditional PR agency is the most expensive option, typically involving monthly retainers in the thousands without guaranteed results. A press release distribution service offers a middle ground, charging a one-time fee for guaranteed placements. This is often the most cost-effective way for a corporate travel startup to secure widespread coverage and the associated SEO and social proof benefits. Our packages are designed for different needs, from directory listings to global media outreach. You can see current pricing on our packages page.

With a distribution service, the process is fast. After you submit your press release through our editor, it undergoes a quick editorial review to ensure it meets publisher guidelines. This review is typically completed within one business day. Once approved, publication begins immediately. You can expect to see your story live on hundreds of media outlets, including major names like AP News and MarketWatch, within 24 to 48 hours. A full report with all live links is delivered within three business days.

Announcements with concrete, verifiable news perform best. Editors look for substance, not just marketing claims. For corporate travel tech, this means focusing on measurable achievements and strategic moves. Top-performing topics include securing a significant funding round, announcing a strategic partnership with a well-known airline or GDS, launching a genuinely innovative platform feature (like an AI-powered booking assistant), or publishing a unique data report on corporate travel trends based on your platform's activity.

Stick to a factual, third-person tone and avoid hype words like "revolutionary" or "game-changing." The release must be structured correctly with a clear headline, a dateline, an introduction summarizing the news, and a boilerplate about your company. Most importantly, it must be based on actual news. Announcing a new hire, a partnership, a new product, or a funding round are all valid. Announcing that your platform is "great" is an advertisement and will be rejected by editorial teams at major publications. Our AI-powered editor helps guide you through these formatting and content rules.

Absolutely. Enterprise procurement teams and travel managers are risk-averse. They need to trust that your platform is stable, secure, and reputable before they will consider migrating their company's travel program to it. Seeing your company featured on sites like Business Insider, Yahoo Finance, and AP News provides powerful third-party validation. These logos on your website and links in your sales materials act as trust signals, reducing friction in the sales cycle and giving you an edge over competitors who lack the same level of public credibility.
