Clear Answers for PR Leaders

Frequently Asked Questions

Authentic answers about media list sourcing, embargo confidentiality, journalist pitching etiquette, and operational continuity.

How does the PR Manager VA customize pitches to avoid spamming journalists?

Our virtual assistants do not send generic mass-blasts that burn relationships with reporters. During onboarding, your dedicated Project Manager absorbs your core narrative pillars and target media criteria. For each pitch campaign, your VA researches the reporter's most recent articles, references specific angles they cover, and personalizes the lead sentence before presenting your client's news hooks, product launch details, or proprietary data.

How do you protect strict media embargos and pre-announcement confidentiality?

PR campaigns frequently handle sensitive financial disclosures, unannounced product launches, and strategic acquisitions under strict embargo terms. Every SageDoer assistant and supervisor operates under legally binding Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs). We mandate credential provisioning via enterprise password vaults (1Password, Bitwarden) with restricted, least-privilege access to your media assets, press wire accounts, and email systems to prevent leaks.

Can the VA communicate directly through our agency's email and PR platforms?

Yes, following your defined communication protocols. We can assign your VA a company or agency email address (e.g., press@youragency.com or firstname@yourbrand.com) and integrate them into your PR platforms (Muck Rack, Cision, BuzzStream, Slack). They handle polite media correspondence, submit HARO/Qwoted responses, confirm interview times, and coordinate media kit deliveries with professional etiquette.

What happens if my assigned assistant is unavailable during a breaking news pitch cycle?

This is the premier advantage of SageDoer's managed model. Because your dedicated Senior Project Manager centrally maintains all your active media lists, pitch templates, embargo timelines, and coverage trackers, an internally trained backup assistant steps in immediately with zero workflow downtime. Your wire distributions and urgent media follow-ups are never stalled by sudden sickness or leaves.

Are there any hidden setup fees, software surcharges, or binding long-term contracts?

None. We charge strictly the transparent flat hourly rate: $7/hr for Part-Time (20 hrs/week) or $6/hr for Full-Time (40 hrs/week). There are zero setup fees, zero platform markups, zero recruitment headhunter fees, and dedicated Senior PM supervision is 100% free. You pay purely for verified productive working hours.
