Questions

Before we speak.

Straight answers about how we work, what we promise, and what we never do.

Working with us

What does 9-Figure Media do?

We are a strategic communications firm. We advise venture-backed companies and their leaders when reputation matters most: raising capital, launching, scaling and under scrutiny. Our practices cover media relations, executive visibility, funding announcements, reputation and AI search, crisis and issues, and corporate affairs.

Who do you work with?

Founders, CEOs and communications leaders at venture-backed and growth-stage companies, along with the investors who back them. We do our best work for companies with a real story and a clear moment ahead.

Who will we actually work with?

A senior lead from the first call onward. We don't hand accounts to junior staff.

What happens on the strategy call?

Thirty minutes with a senior member of the team. We look at your moment, test whether there is a tier-1 story in it, and tell you honestly which outlets it fits. If we are not the right firm for it, we say so. There is no sales script.

Coverage

Do you guarantee coverage?

No. We guarantee the work: an agreed outlet list, every outlet pitched, and full visibility of every pitch and reply. Editors decide what runs, and anyone guaranteeing a specific outlet is selling paid placement.

Do you buy placements or sponsored posts?

Never. Everything we secure is earned editorial coverage. Paid content is labeled as such by the outlet, and readers, investors and AI systems discount it.

Which outlets do your clients appear in?

Our clients' stories have appeared in Forbes, Bloomberg, The New York Times, TechCrunch, CNBC, CNN, Business Insider and VOGUE, among others. The right outlet depends on your story and your audience, so we build the list with you.

How does AI search fit in?

ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews answer questions about your company from published coverage. Credible tier-1 coverage is what they cite most, so the same work that earns press shapes what AI says about you. In our AI Visibility Index, one in four newly funded companies was missing from every engine’s answer about its own category.

Engagements

How are engagements structured?

As ongoing advisory programs, or as fixed-scope projects such as our six-week Funding Announcement Sprint. We scope every engagement to the moment on the first call.

How soon will we see results?

First pitches go out within the first month. Most clients see tier-1 coverage within 90 days.

What do you need from us?

Access to the people who can speak for the company, honest context on what is coming, and quick sign-off on statements. We do the rest.

Results

What is your track record?

More than 300 tier-1 placements earned for over 100 clients, across more than 20 years of combined experience. Read the case studies or hear from clients on our homepage.

How do you measure success?

By outcomes you can see: coverage in the outlets we agreed, share of voice against your competitors, what AI search says about you, and the effect on the moment we were hired for, whether that is a round, a launch or a reputation issue.
