Earned Media Outreach

When to Use

• Founder wants to get featured on podcasts as a guest
• Founder wants press coverage from journalists and tech publications
• Founder wants to build relationships with media for ongoing exposure
• Founder wants to identify which podcasts and publications reach their target audience
• Founder wants to write pitch emails that actually get responses

Context Required

• Founder's story and what makes it interesting (not just what the product does)
• Target audience — who are you trying to reach through media? (customers, investors, talent)
• Topics the founder can speak on with genuine authority
• Previous media experience (if any)
• Upcoming newsworthy events (launch, funding round, milestone, contrarian take)
