"Incredible To Work With"

Is This For You?

Built For Founders
Who Show Up.
Not Lurkers.

This Is For You If...

  • You post on LinkedIn regularly and people are paying attention. Your Google results just don't reflect the authority you've already built
  • You're a founder or CEO who wants to be the recognized expert in your space, not just another voice on the feed
  • You're raising capital and need investors to find credibility when they search your name before the meeting
  • You want podcast invitations, speaking opportunities, and inbound deals coming to you - not the other way around
  • You understand that LinkedIn attention without Google-backed credibility is a leaky bucket. You're ready to fix it
  • You're building something real and want your Google results to prove it

This Is NOT For You If...

  • You never post content and aren't actively building any kind of public presence
  • You want to stay invisible and prefer your work speaks for itself
  • You're chasing overnight viral moments with no interest in building lasting Google authority
  • You want vanity placements that look good in a screenshot but don't move the needle
  • You're not willing to be positioned as the expert - you just want your company mentioned
  • You expect a full press campaign to produce results in 48 hours
The Problem

Your Post Gets
Seen. Then
They Google You.

The Moment That Kills Deals

Your LinkedIn post gets traction. An investor, a podcast host, a potential client sees it and thinks: this person is interesting. So they do what everyone does: they open a new tab and Google your name. What appears in those search results determines everything.

Nothing Credible Shows Up

No press features. No interviews. No third-party proof that you are who you say you are. Just your own website and maybe a LinkedIn profile. The trust you just built in 60 seconds of content? Gone in 10 seconds of Googling.

Every Google Search Is A Closed Door

That investor didn't follow up. That podcast host booked someone else. That client went with a competitor who had a Forbes feature. You never found out why. This is why. LinkedIn attention without press-backed Google credibility leaks opportunities every single day.

Your Competitors Already Know This

Someone doing half the work you're doing just landed a Business Insider feature. Now they're the "recognized expert." Press doesn't just build authority - it decides who gets to have authority in the first place. The gap compounds the longer you wait.

The Fix Is Simple

LinkedIn creates attention. Google validates credibility. Press builds authority. When all three work together, opportunities stop being things you chase and start being things that find you.

We build the press trail that closes the loop. Strategic placements in publications that rank when people search your name. That turns LinkedIn attention into lasting, compounding Google credibility.

  • Press features that own your Google results when people search your name
  • Media coverage that becomes your highest-performing LinkedIn content
  • Third-party credibility that makes investors, clients, and podcast hosts say yes
  • A Google search result that finally matches who you actually are

Why Google Is The Real Test

People Discover You
On LinkedIn.
They Verify You On Google.

LinkedIn creates the curiosity. Google delivers the verdict. After they see your post, the most important people in your orbit open a new tab and search your name. Here's exactly who's verifying you, and what each of them needs to find:

🎙 Podcast Hosts
They loved your post. Now they're deciding if you're worth booking. They Google your name before sending the invite. If nothing credible shows up, someone else gets the slot.
Needs: Press Features
💰 Investors
They're vetting you as hard as your pitch deck. An empty Google page raises questions before you've said a word. Press coverage tells them you're a serious operator worth backing.
Needs: Media Coverage
🤝 Potential Clients
They love your content. But they're about to write a real check. A Google search full of press features is what tells them you're the real deal, not just great at posting.
Needs: Third-Party Validation
📰 Journalists
They need an expert for a story. They search the topic, find a founder with a credible press trail, and that founder gets the quote. The founder with the better LinkedIn headline gets ignored.
Needs: Expert Positioning
🎤 Event Organizers
Two equally qualified speakers. One has a credible press trail in Google search. One doesn't. The choice is obvious. The stage goes to the founder who looks credible when you search their name.
Needs: Authority Signals
Why Press Matters for Founders

Press Isn't
Publicity.
It's Infrastructure.

🔍

It Owns Your Google Results

Press features rank in Google search. When someone searches your name, articles from Forbes, Business Insider, and Authority Magazine fill the page with third-party proof, pushing down anything that undermines you. Your Google results become your most powerful credibility asset.

01
⚡

It's Your Highest-Performing LinkedIn Content

A post saying "I know a lot about X" gets scrolled past. A post saying "I was just featured in Forbes talking about X" gets saved, shared, and drives inbound DMs from exactly the right people. Press-backed LinkedIn content performs at a completely different level. It validates your expertise in a way your own words never can.

02
🎙

It Unlocks Podcast and Speaking Invites

One press feature leads to a podcast invite. That leads to a speaking slot. That leads to a partnership. Podcast hosts and event organizers vet guests through Google. A press trail is what gets you on the shortlist. The first placement is the hardest. After that, inbound finds you.

03
🏆

It Validates You In Ways You Can't Do Yourself

Anyone can say they're an expert. Press coverage is third-party proof. Journalists who've interviewed thousands of founders chose you as the one worth quoting. That's a different kind of credibility than a polished bio or a strong LinkedIn profile can ever manufacture.

04
💼

It Shortens Every Sales Conversation

Investors, clients, and partners all Google you before committing. When they find credible press features in search, the trust is pre-built before you've said a word. The ask becomes easier, the close becomes faster, and the "I need to think about it" rate drops dramatically.

05
📈

It Gets Easier and More Powerful Over Time

Your second press feature is easier than your first. Your tenth is effortless. Each placement builds the trail that makes you the obvious choice - and makes journalists more likely to come to you without being pitched. Authority that compounds is the only kind worth building.

⭐ Featured Case Study

To Badass.

Founder Authority · Personal Brand Campaign

Amber Duncan
Life After Debt

Amber filed for bankruptcy. A lawyer told her she'd be back. She made damn sure she wasn't. She built a multi-million-dollar financial freedom empire helping Americans eliminate credit card debt. She had the story. She was posting on LinkedIn. People were paying attention. But when they Googled her name? Nothing credible showed up. Nothing that matched the authority she'd already earned.

We turned her into the financial disruptor banks hope you never meet. A full media campaign that made financial editors stop and pay attention. It rebuilt her Google results to reflect what she actually was: a proven expert with the receipts to prove it.

"She didn't just want press. She wanted her Google results to match who she actually is. Today she's building a national debt advisor network, speaking at industry events, and getting inbound from clients who found her through a Google search, not an ad."
The Outcome · Amber Duncan, Founder - Life After Debt
Amber Duncan

  • 6 guest articles + 2 podcast interviews in under 30 days from campaign launch
  • Coverage in Economic Insider, Authority Magazine, CEO Weekly - the press trail that now backs every LinkedIn post she shares
  • Positioned as the go-to voice on financial healing - the authority her content always deserved

Founder Personal Brand

Mark Clayton
LIVV Audio

Mark Clayton

Ex-NFL wide receiver turned tech entrepreneur. Mark was active on LinkedIn but Google still returned athlete results, not the serious founder he'd become. We repositioned him as a category inventor, landing features from Financial Times to iHeartRadio. Now when investors and partners Google Mark Clayton, they find a credible tech innovator whose search results validate every post he shares.

Reputation & Authority Recovery

Ghasan Alesayi
Digital Reputation

Ghasan Alesayi

Ghasan was building his public presence and preparing to launch his documentary, but false arrest headlines dominated his Google results. His LinkedIn presence couldn't fix what Google was saying about him. Before he could tell his real story, we needed to rewrite what people found when they searched his name. In under 4 months: 13 coverages, page one reclaimed, and a Google presence that finally matched who he actually is.

Trilliam Jeong - WealthBlock

In fintech, trust is everything. It starts with a Google search. WealthBlock's founders were active and building in public, but investor and partner searches returned nothing credible. We ran a targeted media campaign that put them on page one for the searches that mattered: investor, startup, and business press that made them look exactly like the serious operators they were. 19 placements in 5 months.

Marianela Nanninga

Latina CEO in a male-dominated industry. Marianela wasn't chasing vanity coverage. She wanted Google results that made her the undeniable thought leader in robotics and inclusive innovation. We made her the story. 20 features later, she's the go-to expert on human-robot collaboration. Her LinkedIn posts now carry the press trail that turns readers into believers.

How It Works

The System
That Turns LinkedIn
Into Real Authority.

01
🎯

Find Your Authority Angles

We audit your story, your LinkedIn presence, and your Google footprint to find the authority gaps and the media angles that make journalists pay attention. Not what you think is interesting. What press actually covers, what editors bite on, and what ranks when people search your name.

02
📣

Build Your Expert Narrative

We craft your founder narrative so that editors, podcast hosts, and event organizers immediately understand why you're the person to quote - not just another founder with opinions. Your story becomes a pitch that lands.

03
🗞

Land The Features That Matter

We pitch relentlessly to the outlets that rank when people search your name. Business press, industry verticals, podcasts, and speaking platforms. The goal is a press trail that turns every Google search into an automatic credibility signal.

04
🚀

Turn Press Into LinkedIn Authority

Every feature becomes powerful LinkedIn content, a stronger Google result, and inbound proof of expertise. Press-backed LinkedIn posts perform at a completely different level. We show you how to leverage each placement so the authority keeps compounding long after it publishes.

FAQ

You Have Questions.
Good.

We work with founders, CEOs, consultants, and entrepreneurs who are actively building their personal brand – especially those posting on LinkedIn, going on podcasts, or stepping into public visibility. If you have a story worth telling, we'll figure out how to get it in front of the right people.
Most of our founder campaigns land initial coverage within 30 days of launch. Our 60-day guarantee means we commit to 2 meaningful earned media features and 3 additional opportunities lined up within 60 days – or you get your money back.
Most PR agencies pitch products and focus on brand awareness. We focus on founder authority. We build the specific kind of credibility that shows up when people Google you, opens doors to speaking and podcasts, and makes investors and clients take you more seriously. We're not building a press list. We're building your Google results.
No. Some of our best work happens with founders who have zero press coverage but a genuinely compelling story. If you're posting on LinkedIn and getting any traction – or you're actively trying to build visibility – we can identify the angles that make journalists pay attention.
We'll review your current digital footprint, identify the authority gaps that are costing you opportunities, and show you the specific media angles where you could realistically land coverage. It's a genuine strategy session – not a sales pitch disguised as a consult.
Press-backed LinkedIn content performs at a completely different level. A post sharing a Forbes or Business Insider feature drives inbound DMs, connection requests, and replies that organic posts rarely generate. It also strengthens your Google results with content people actually trust. Press and LinkedIn are a feedback loop. Each makes the other more powerful, and both reinforce what people find when they search your name.
The Next Move

You're Posting.
People Are Watching.
Now Make Google Match.

You're doing the work. You're building in public. You're creating content that moves people. The only thing missing is the press trail that turns a curious Google search into instant credibility. Every person who searches your name will find exactly what they need to trust you. Let's build that.
