You have a brilliant product. Your team is crushing it. Your pitch deck looks incredible. But there is one massive problem that kills more startups than bad ideas or running out of cash — nobody has heard of you.
Whether you are building a SaaS tool in San Francisco, a fintech startup in New York, an AI company in Austin, a healthtech venture in Boston, or a DTC brand in Los Angeles — you face the same brutal reality. When investors, customers, or potential hires Google your company, they find... nothing.
And nothing is worse than a bad product. At least a bad product has reviews. Nothing means you do not exist.
Here is the truth: 82% of investors Google a startup before taking a meeting. 67% of potential customers research a company before buying. 91% of job candidates look up a company before applying. If they find zero media coverage, you have already lost.
Imagine you are a VC partner in Silicon Valley, Tel Aviv, or London. A founder pitches you a promising Series A deal. You go back to your desk, open Google, type in the company name. If all that comes up is a LinkedIn page and a basic website — red flag. But if the first page shows articles on FOX 54 (WFXG Augusta), KTBS 3 ABC (Shreveport), KWWL NBC (Eastern Iowa), the International Business Times, and the Star Tribune? That is a completely different conversation.
Press coverage does not just make you look established. It makes you look inevitable. And investors want to back companies that feel inevitable.

Whether you are raising a pre-seed round in Miami, a Series A in San Francisco, or a growth round in Singapore — press coverage is the ultimate credibility shortcut. Here is exactly how startup founders use press releases to close funding faster:
The most powerful slide in any pitch deck is the media coverage slide. When investors see logos from FOX, NBC, CBS, and ABC affiliate stations alongside coverage from outlets like the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, the San Diego Union-Tribune, or the Charleston Gazette-Mail (a Pulitzer Prize-winning newspaper), it signals one thing: this startup is real.
Every serious investor runs due diligence before writing a check. They Google you. They Google your co-founders. They look for press. Having articles on 100+ outlets means their search turns up results that reinforce your pitch, not a blank page that raises questions.
Startups in Chicago, Toronto, Berlin, and Bangalore are all competing for the same global capital. Press coverage creates a snowball effect. Each round of coverage makes the next round of funding easier. Investors talk to each other, and when multiple VCs see your name in the media, FOMO kicks in.
For early-stage startups, every customer matters. Whether you are a marketplace startup in Seattle, an edtech company in Boston, or a DTC brand launching in Los Angeles, press coverage gives you something that paid ads cannot: third-party credibility.
When a potential customer lands on your website and sees "As Featured on FOX, NBC, CBS & ABC Affiliates" — the trust barrier drops immediately. They are not just taking your word for it anymore. A third party has validated you.
Pro tip: Startups that display media badges on their website see an average 28% increase in conversion rates. When visitors see coverage from outlets like WBOC CBS (Delmarva), KTVN CBS (Reno), or the Columbia Missourian (another Pulitzer winner), it creates instant trust.

Hiring is one of the hardest challenges for startups. You are competing against tech giants in Silicon Valley and established companies in New York, London, and Berlin. Top engineers, designers, and marketers have options. They are going to Google your company before they even respond to your recruiter's message.
When candidates see your startup featured on KITV 4 ABC (Hawaii), KVOA NBC (Tucson), KAKE ABC (Wichita), and the International Business Times, it sends a powerful signal: this company is going places. It is the difference between "never heard of them" and "oh, I've seen them in the news."

You do not need revenue to get press coverage. In fact, some of the most effective press releases come from pre-revenue startups that are announcing their launch, a new product, a funding round, or a founding team hire.
Startups in Denver, Nashville, Miami, and Austin are using press release distribution as one of their very first marketing moves — before they even have paying customers. Here is why it works:

No matter what kind of startup you are building or where you are based, press coverage accelerates your growth. Here is how different startup verticals use TheBuzzBlast:
SaaS founders in San Francisco, Chicago, Toronto, and London use press releases to announce product launches, new feature releases, funding rounds, and milestone achievements. Coverage on outlets like KULR-8 NBC (Billings MT), WREX NBC (Rockford), and the Buffalo News builds the kind of third-party credibility that shortens sales cycles and boosts trial signups.
Trust is everything in fintech. Whether you are building a payment platform in New York, a crypto exchange in Singapore, or a lending startup in London, press coverage on 100+ outlets instantly communicates legitimacy to cautious users who are about to hand over their financial information.
Healthcare startups in Boston, San Diego, and Tel Aviv face extreme trust barriers. Patients and healthcare providers need to see that you are a real, credible organization. Media coverage on outlets like WCAV CBS (Charlottesville) and the Charleston Gazette-Mail helps you break through the noise.
The AI space is crowded, with new companies launching daily in Silicon Valley, Seattle, Berlin, and Bangalore. A press release distributed to 100+ outlets helps your AI startup stand out, whether you are announcing a breakthrough model, a new enterprise partnership, or a product launch.
DTC brands launching from Los Angeles, Miami, or Portland need social proof before customers will buy. Press coverage gives you the "As Seen In" badges that turn browsers into buyers. Learn more about PR for e-commerce stores and our press release service for Shopify stores.
Two-sided marketplaces and education platforms need trust from both sides — buyers and sellers, students and instructors. Press coverage on outlets like KTEN NBC (Texoma), KPVI NBC (Idaho), and the Wyoming Tribune Eagle builds credibility with both audiences simultaneously.
