Anyone used Promote Hour?

https://promotehour.com/ for more info.

Just had a call with them and what they offer is pretty nice, I believe I have a product and angle that I believe is popular right now, I just need to get it in front of some journalists.

Curious for other IH thoughts on this.

    I have been contacted too! I would like to know if anyone had experience with them!

      Just took the plunge so I guess we'll see!

        Interesting. Not much info on how they do this, beyond a press kit. Let us know how it goes. Which plan did you sign up for?

          The middle one, basically all materials plus crafting a narrative and presenting that to 300 journalists

            can you later post whether or not you had success with them? I have a promising product too but I declined to go with their offer after several hours of reading through reviews of their service

            Hi Alex, how was your experience with Promote Hour?

              I have a call with a journalist next Monday, will update then.

              That has been the only lead out of roughly 300 emails sent from what I can see.

                Thanks for the update! I appreciate hearing your experience very much.

    I bought a press list and it's definitely got some holes in it. There are several who are not journalists at all, or don't even work for tech publications (Cottage Life??). There are also several that write for publications outside of Canada (I specifically bought the Canadian press list to target Canadian audiences). That being said, there do seem to be plenty of others who are in line with what I was looking for, but I will have to do my homework to ensure they're legit. So they got me one step ahead but didn't solve all my problems.
