Get featured on Scheduling Media Outlets in 48 hours

Yes, you can. DIY PR involves building a media list, finding journalist contact information, and sending personalized pitches. It's free, but it requires a significant investment of time and effort, and success is not guaranteed. Most founders find their time is better spent on product and sales. Using a distribution service automates the submission and placement process. You write the release (or use our AI editor to help), and we handle getting it published across our network. It's a way to get the benefits of PR without the heavy time commitment of the DIY approach.

The cost varies widely. The DIY approach is free but costs you significant time. A traditional PR agency charges a monthly retainer, typically between $5,000 and $15,000, without guaranteeing any specific number of placements. Press release distribution services operate on a one-time, per-release fee model. This provides a predictable cost for guaranteed placements. Our packages are designed to provide a high return on investment by focusing on tangible outcomes like SEO backlinks and social proof. You can see our current one-time pricing on our packages page.

Once your press release is written and approved by our editorial team, publication is very fast. For our media packages, placements begin appearing within 24 to 48 hours. You will receive a full report with live links within 3 business days. If your package includes startup directory submissions, those placements can take longer, with the full list being completed within two weeks. This is because many directories have a manual review process for new listings.

Announcements that show momentum, solve a clear problem, or offer new data get the most attention. For scheduling apps, this includes major funding rounds, partnerships with well-known companies (like Microsoft or Slack), achieving HIPAA compliance for medical scheduling, or releasing a unique AI feature that automates complex scheduling tasks. Data-driven stories also perform well. For example, you could publish a report on "The State of Meeting Efficiency" using anonymized data from your platform. This positions you as an industry expert and creates a valuable asset.

Editors reject releases that read like advertisements. To ensure acceptance, your release must be objective, factual, and newsworthy. Avoid hype words like "revolutionary" or "game-changing." Instead of making claims, provide proof. Structure it professionally with a clear headline, a dateline, an introductory paragraph summarizing the news, and a boilerplate about your company. Include a quote from a key executive. Our AI-powered editor guides you through this process, ensuring your release meets the strict formatting and content guidelines required by top-tier publishers.

Yes, it directly supports enterprise sales cycles by building third-party credibility. When a potential client sees your scheduling tool featured on sites like Business Insider or MarketWatch, it validates your company's stability and legitimacy. This is a crucial trust signal, especially when asking them to integrate your software into their organization. Sales teams can include "As Seen On" logos in their pitch decks and email signatures. This social proof can shorten sales cycles and overcome objections from IT and security teams who are vetting your solution against more established competitors.
