Frequently asked

Command, in plain terms.

Can you guarantee coverage?

No, and anyone who does is either paying for it or misleading you. We can guarantee the quality of the approach, the specificity of the angle and the preparation you walk in with.

What if I am a nervous speaker?

Then most of the budget goes into rehearsal. Nervous founders who prepare properly routinely outperform confident ones who improvise.

How many stages a year?

Four to six good ones beats twenty. Every appearance costs preparation time, and a weak one is worse than none.

Publishing is not enough

A content engine builds a library. It does not, on its own, make you a name people cite. That happens when the position survives contact with rooms you do not control: stages, hostile questions, journalists with their own angle, panels where someone disagrees with you in public.

Sequence beats volume

Eleven podcasts in a month produces eleven versions of you. We sequence appearances so early bookings rehearse the arguments and later ones deliver them at reach, with the same three points advancing throughout.

Proprietary research is the accelerant

Original data the category cannot get elsewhere is what earns citation rather than coverage. It is also what turns a founder from an interesting interviewee into someone journalists call first.

This is where positions break

If the argument cannot hold under questioning, we find out here rather than in month eleven. That is uncomfortable and it is the point of doing it before the conversion work.
