How to Select Your Tech PR Agency

Choosing the right agency is critical. Here's what to consider.

01

Define Your Needs

Are you launching a product, raising funding, building thought leadership, or managing a crisis? Different agencies excel at different things. Be clear about your objectives before starting the search.

02

Budget Realistically

Quality PR isn't cheap. Underspending leads to disappointment. Be honest about what you can invest and find agencies that align. Boutiques often provide better value for startups.

03

Evaluate Specialization

A cybersecurity company shouldn't hire a consumer tech agency. Look for agencies with relevant experience, existing media relationships, and understanding of your industry's nuances.

04

Assess Cultural Fit

You'll work closely with your PR team. Chemistry matters. Evaluate communication style, responsiveness, and whether they truly understand your vision during the pitch process.
