PodPitch

Unbelievable... PodPitch's new "pitch any journalist" tool is SO good that people are literally asking to quit their jobs and sell this instead 👇 Anonymized, because we might hire this person. Make a product so good that people think the best thing they could do in their job is contribute to it. #PublicRelations #MediaRelations #MediaPitching #journalists #PressRelease #PRStrategy #MediaOutreach #PRTips #PressCoverage #PRPros #BrandPR #MediaEngagement #PRInsights

WE'VE DONE IT: as of June 12th, 2025... PodPitch's new journalist pitching engine is alive! Public relations may NEVER be the same. Here's why... 👇 For almost two years, we've refined an incredible agentic software that analyzes LinkedIn profiles (like yours!), finds podcasts, listens to them, and pitches the podcast host over email. It's been a huge success: we have thousands of active users and companies like Lockheed Martin, Disney, and even the venerable beehiiv happily using our software. For months, we've been not-so-secretly training it on how to pitch journalists for stories. And it looks like it's working like crazy. Way higher reply rates than industry averages, with plenty of the work being done while you sleep (or do something else). So now you can log in, write a paragraph about yourself, click 'go', and watch PodPitch reach out to journalists all day long about you and your ventures. Journalists are WAY harder to pitch than podcast hosts. They're meaner (no offense). They get 50X as many pitches daily. And they cover a much more narrow topic range. And we're starting to see incredible proof that public relations CAN be made faster & more powerful with pitching software, not just database software. What do you think? Is this the future? Will Parker and PodPitch change the world? #PublicRelations #MediaRelations #PRPitch #MediaPitching #JournalistPitch #PressRelease #PRStrategy #MediaOutreach #PRTips #PressCoverage #PRPros #BrandPR #InfluencerRelations #CrisisPR #MediaEngagement #CorporateCommunications #journalists #ai #artificialintelligence

⏳ Timing really is everything. Back in January, I followed up with a PR agency about PodPitch. They were interested—but life (and inboxes) got busy. Totally normal. Fast forward to June… and here they are, circling back and pulling in their decision-makers. Here’s the thing: it doesn’t matter when you’re ready—what matters is that if you’re a PR agency trying to land your clients on podcasts, PodPitch will be ready for you. Because chasing down hosts, building media lists, and sending cold emails manually? That’s yesterday’s workflow. We built PodPitch to automate the hardest part so you can focus on what you do best: making your clients look amazing. If this has been on your mind for a while—consider this your sign. 📩

FUNDING ANNOUNCEMENT: We’re excited to share that PodPitch has now raised… 🥁 drum roll... $0 in venture capital! No angel round. No pre-seed. No SAFE. No pitch decks. Just customers, paying us every single day. In the past 12 months, we’ve crossed thousands of total bookings. We’ve onboarded teams from Jack Link’s, Lockheed Martin, Beehiiv, Feastables, MyFitnessPal, and TONS ofc PR firms, marketing teams, and operators. And we’ve done it without ever giving away equity, asking for a runway, or waiting for a wire. Instead, we’ve been funded by something better: trust. → The trust of PR pros who pitch clients every day. → The trust of founders who are tired of sending cold emails into the void. → The trust of teams who just want outreach tools that actually work. At PodPitch, I always tell our team the truth: Our cofounders (Parker Olson and I) don't pay anyone's salary. You are paid by our customers. They are our investors. And every day, they choose to fund this company again. There’s still so much to build. But if you’re wondering whether you can grow without raising — here’s one datapoint. You can. If you want to know how we did it, happy to share. #bootstrapped #fundingannouncement #founderlife #startups #buildinpublic #growth #saas #nocode #earnedmedia #podcasting #publicrelations #Communications #MediaRelations #Branding #CrisisCommunication #ContentStrategy #Storytelling #DigitalPR #ReputationManagement #MediaTraining

Still can't believe it... This is literally the dream: to have something you built from scratch get recognized on this kind of stage. Here's how we got this placement... *But first, a message of encouragement* To every scrappy founder, PR pro, podcast guest, and customer who took a chance on us: you’re part of this. You made this happen. Okay, here's how we were quoted in the WSJ: The craziest part is that we did 0 outreach to make this happen. The journalist, Patrick, was chatting with people in the PR space. Our name kept coming up over & over, he said. He eventually found my email and sent me a short & sweet cold email. It's nuts. I don't expect the next one to be that easy!

Mama, I made it: I'm now quoted in The Wall Street Journal for PodPitch! The second most-read newspaper in the United States... I'm so incredibly grateful to be featured here as an expert on artificial intelligence and its application in the public relations space. Unfortunately as well, this inclusion highlights all too well some of the difficulties of PR today... Here's the math: 30+ minutes on the phone + 15 minutes of follow-ups = One sentence — no links, no attribution to your work. This is exactly why so many small businesses and PR agencies are embracing podcasts and new media... ...where the stories go deeper, the conversations are longer, and the audience actually hears your voice. Still, the credibility boost from The Wall Street Journal? Undeniable. I'm thankful for the opportunity and more fired up than ever about the future of media. https://lnkd.in/emveMPY5

PodPitch's first The Wall Street Journal feature!! AI is evolving the Public Relations landscape - there are no ifs, ands or buts about it!

Can anyone help us celebrate? It's been exactly 600 days of running PodPitch and we've done 6 incredible things with no investors at all... 1. Built a full-time job for eleven people (soon to be 12) 2. Given over 2,000 sales demos to over 2,000 people 3. Literally thousands of paying users (can't say how many) 4. Over 1,000,000 pitches to podcasts have been sent with our platform 5. About 2% of ALL podcast bookings are done through our platform 6. Grown over 2X since Jan 1 2025. Kind of nuts. The next 600 days are going to be absolutely insane. I can't wait to see where we'll be on Jan 10, 2027! #pr #thoughtleadership #earnedmedia #b2bmarketing #podpitch #founderbrand #growthwithoutads #buildinpublic #podcasts #publicrelations
