Choosing the right expert source positioning for journalists partner

Look for a partner who asks about your margins, sales process and capacity before talking about tactics. Good expert source positioning for journalists fits the business behind it; a plan that ignores how you actually sell will struggle no matter how polished it looks.

Check how communication works. Will you get a named contact, regular reports in plain language and quick answers on WhatsApp? Many working relationships fail on communication rather than skill.

Common mistakes to avoid

Copying competitors blindly rarely works. Their margins, audiences and goals differ from yours. Use competitor research to find gaps and opportunities, not templates.

Ignoring follow-up wastes good marketing. Enquiries that wait hours for a reply convert far worse; a simple WhatsApp response routine often improves results more than extra spend.

Why expert source positioning for journalists matters

Done well, expert source positioning for journalists compounds. Each month builds on the last: better data, clearer messaging and assets that keep working after the campaign ends. Done poorly, it becomes a monthly cost with little to show for it — which is why we start with goals and measurement rather than activity.

What to prepare before we start

Before we start, it helps to gather a few things: access to your website analytics and ad accounts (if any), a list of your best-selling products or most profitable services, examples of competitors you admire or worry about, and any brand guidelines. None of this needs to be perfect — we will help organise it.

How pricing works

We prefer simple, transparent pricing: a clear list of what is included, a fixed fee, and no long lock-in for most services. If priorities change, we adjust the plan with you rather than keep delivering work that no longer fits.
