Get featured on Print on Demand Media Outlets in 48 hours

Yes, you can absolutely do your own PR, but it requires significant time and effort. The process involves building media lists, finding journalist contacts, crafting personalized pitches, and following up relentlessly. For a busy founder, this often takes focus away from product development and customer service. Doing it yourself is free, but the opportunity cost is high and success is not guaranteed. Using a distribution service automates the submission and placement process, saving you dozens of hours while ensuring you get the desired coverage and reports.

The cost varies widely based on the method. Pitching journalists yourself is technically free but costs you significant time. Hiring a traditional PR agency is the most expensive option, typically involving monthly retainers of $5,000 to $15,000 with no guaranteed placements. Press release distribution services offer a more predictable, one-time cost. Instead of a retainer, you pay per campaign for guaranteed placements across a network of media outlets. You can view our current one-time package pricing for specific costs and deliverables.

With Mediaboost, the process is fast. After you submit your press release through our platform, it undergoes a quick editorial review to ensure it meets publisher guidelines. Once approved, publication on our network of 350+ media outlets begins. You can expect to see your story live on sites like Yahoo Finance, Benzinga, and AP News within 24 to 48 hours. We deliver a full PDF report with all the live links, backlink data, and DR scores within 3 business days of the campaign start.

Announcements with a clear impact on customers or the market perform best. This includes launching a new, innovative product line (e.g., eco-friendly apparel), a major partnership with a well-known brand or artist, or a significant platform update that improves the user experience for creators. Data-driven milestones also work well, such as 'Our Platform Helps 10,000 Artists Earn a Living' or 'Surpassing 1 Million Orders Shipped.' Avoid generic announcements like a minor website redesign, as they lack the newsworthiness editors look for.

Editors reject releases that are overly promotional, lack a real news angle, or are formatted incorrectly. To avoid this, write in the third person (e.g., '[Your Company] announced...') and avoid hype words like 'game-changing' or 'revolutionary.' Focus on the facts of your announcement. Your release must have a clear news hook, such as a new product, a partnership, or a data milestone. It cannot be a simple advertisement for your services. Our AI-powered editor guides you through the process, helping you structure your content to meet the strict guidelines of major publishers.

Yes, but indirectly. While a press release might not send a flood of immediate sales, it builds the trust and authority that converts browsing visitors into paying customers. When a potential buyer sees 'As Seen On Business Insider' on your site, it reduces their purchase anxiety and signals that you are a legitimate business. This coverage also provides powerful SEO benefits, helping your store rank higher on Google for relevant search terms. Over time, this increased visibility and credibility leads to more organic traffic and higher conversion rates, which are critical for growing a Print on Demand business.
