Why now: Layoffs are in the headlines every week. Editors want experts who can talk about keeping teams together, not just cutting them.

  • Three things managers should say during a restructure
  • Why your wellbeing budget isn't working

Journo-Trained AI

When is the best time to pitch Stylist magazine?
FT

From Felicity Thistlethwaite (Head of Digital, Stylist) in her Pressflow Journalist Q&A

The best time to pitch Stylist depends on their weekly meeting schedule:

  • Avoid Tuesday mornings: the major features meeting means editors already have their ideas locked. Pitching then gets your email swallowed whole.
  • Pitch ahead of Monday mornings: strategy and fortnightly planning are set Monday, with daily news meetings at 9:45 AM.
  • Be fast on reactive hooks: when a cultural moment breaks, the expert who replies fastest often gets the slot.

Real people, Real Expertise.

A journalist, a marketer and a web dev walk into a bar… well, not quite, but not far off.

Bianca Barratt

Bianca Barratt

The journalist

A working journalist for 10 years, five of them as a Forbes Senior Contributor, with bylines in Vogue, The Sunday Times, Cosmopolitan and the BBC. About a hundred pitches land in her inbox a day, and she's the one deciding which become a story. Creator of The Scoop, now part of Pressflow.

Graham Skene

Graham Skene

The web dev

10 years working in the tech industry across web development and digital marketing, Graham leads product, design and the core technology. He took Bianca and Jelena's method out of their heads and turned it into a platform.

Jelena Skene

Jelena Skene

The marketing expert

Law, then fashion, then head of digital marketing, then running her own agency for startups and scaleups. She watched client after client overpay for PR that couldn't deliver. Getting the coverage is one job; turning it into enquiries, clients and growth is hers. She built Pressflow as the fix.

Three ways to get press

Get the coverage. Keep the relationships.
