In an age where most things are just a Google search away, it’s tough to stand out from the noise and get your business the attention it deserves. That’s why, when you have something truly newsworthy to share, getting coverage in top-tier publications is the key.

But how do you get your foot in the door?

One of the ways to get in is by cold-pitching.

Cold pitches are a simple, fast, and efficient way to generate media attention. They are short and to the point.

Media outlets, editors, and journalists are busy people and don't have time for grandiose or flowery pitches. Instead, they are looking for a pitch that includes all the elements they want to see in a story. So if you want to get noticed, you need to transform what you say into what they want to read.

To better understand how cold pitching should go, Vincent Phamvan explains to us the steps you need to take to create a successful cold pitch.

“Editors and journalists get a lot of pitches. And so imagine how refreshing it would be for them in a sea of pitches to actually get an email where it's like somebody's trying to help them.”
- Vincent Phamvan
