Frequently Asked Questions

Addressing common queries regarding our Managed PR VA service.

Do your VAs actually write the press releases?
Generally, no. This role focuses on distribution and operations. While they can proofread, format, and prepare the release for the wire, the core writing and strategic messaging should remain with your internal PR team or copywriters. The VA handles the logistics of getting that message seen.
Can they guarantee media placements or coverage?
No ethical PR professional can guarantee earned media placement. What our VAs *do* guarantee is meticulous execution of the distribution process—building highly targeted media lists, sending pitches accurately, and following up on schedule to maximize your chances of securing coverage.
Why hire through Sagedoer instead of a freelance platform?
Freelance platforms charge up to 40% in hidden fees and leave you with the burden of management. With Sagedoer, you pay a flat rate ($6-$7/hr). More importantly, you receive a free dedicated Project Manager who performs QA checks on wire uploads, audits media lists, and ensures embargo deadlines are strictly met.
Do I need to provide access to tools like Cision or Meltwater?
Yes. VAs utilize the software infrastructure you already have in place. You will need to provide them with secure access or a user seat to your preferred media database, wire service accounts, and clipping tools.
