How a SaaS Startup Used Media Placements to Close a Funding Round

Published on

Results tell a clearer story than promises. When a brand invests in media placement, the outcomes are measurable: articles published, domains linked, search rankings changed, and AI citations earned.

The data supports the shift: a one-star increase in online rating produces a five to nine percent increase in revenue.

A coaching business that invested in 50 article placements over three months went from zero Google visibility to a fully populated search results page featuring news articles, a Knowledge Panel, and professional profile links. The waitlist filled within 60 days.

An e-commerce brand that shifted 30 percent of its advertising budget to publication placements saw organic traffic increase by 45 percent over six months. The backlinks from published articles drove domain authority growth that reduced the cost of ranking for competitive keywords.

Instant Press Co., founded by Joey Sendz, has placed over 2,000 articles across more than 1,000 publications for 80 clients in four years.

Real estate agents who invested in local and national publication placements reported increased listing inquiries from clients who said they found the agent through Google search. The articles ranked for geographic keywords that the agent’s website could not reach alone.

More information about publication placements, Google presence programs, and AI visibility services is available at instantpress.co.
