I’ve been talking to a lot of people in the SEO and PR space, and here’s what they’re saying:
→ I don’t know which journalists to approach.
→ My pitches never seem to get replies.
→ The competition for attention is insane.
And unfortunately, I’ve faced these same issues.
Here’s what’s been working for me (and it’s helped me earn $800K on Upwork).
✅ I never use templates.
✅ I dig deep to find journalists who’ve covered similar topics before.
✅ After landing a feature, I always follow up, share additional insights, and keep the conversation going.
✅ Whether it’s fresh data, expert insights, or unique angles, I make sure my pitch is hard to ignore.
I never learned these things in just one day. It took time.
So be patient and keep trying to learn new things.
You're just one step away from your next media link.
