Really, is this is the best way
to get press exposure for your company?

Hiring an expensive PR firm

Who wants to sign a long term retainer contract (normally over 6 months) with an expensive PR firm with no guarantee of results? Respona users are getting press on major publications with a fraction of the cost.

Extremely expensive
No guarantee of results

Purchasing media databases and spamming journalists

Sending unsolicited, mass PR pitches not only doesn’t yield any results but it also negatively affects your email domain reputation and increases your chances of your emails ending up in spam.

Waste of valuable time and money
Not enough info to personalize pitches
Inconsistent results

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Respona going to replace our digital PR firm?

Yes. Respona helps automate many of the processes that a digital PR firm does manually. Working with a PR firm often requires a long-term (and expensive) commitment that has no guarantee of achieving the results you want. Respona automates email sending for press releases or media pitches, contact finding, and HARO outreach so you can execute your PR strategy at a fraction of the cost (and time).

Do I also need a press release writing software?

No. Respona allows users to send automated email sequences based on templates that you create in the platform. We even provide free resources on how to write press releases and media pitches to get you started if you’re looking to bring your PR in-house. All you need to do is build your press release as a template inside of Respona, have our automation find the contact information for the people you want to reach out to, and then launch your campaign to start getting the word out.

Yes. Respona offers a variety of sample templates when creating your email-sequence. We even offer a free guide on how to write a press release from scratch.
