“I used Adela's pitching strategies and landed a cover and 3 page feature on my first pitch!”
I’m an introvert and assumed that people that get press coverage are more famous or better connected than me.
Adela taught me how to pitch effectively and that people who get featured anywhere get there because they asked to be there.
YEP! That's me holding the Yorkshire Post magazine 2 months ago not quite believing I’m in 3 pages of it AND the cover!!!).”

Here’s what you’d pay a publicist to support your business
Traditional PR agents cost $1000 to $10,000 a month, usually on a retainer style contract.
That’s £12,000 a year for a freelance PR agent or £96,000 for a top one.
And it’s way more that that if you’re in the US - I’ve heard figures like $ 10000 - $30000 per month for over there!
Wherever you are in the world, it’s a lot of money for a small business trying to find their feet and become profitable in the early years.
That’s why I created Pitch to Press. So you can take control, own your own relationships and start getting your business visible in the media and your industry from Day 1.

Here what other students are saying after being taught by Adela …
Adela’s reminded me that my story is powerful, my voice is powerful, that you don’t need to have connections.
I love Adela’s energy. She combines a razor sharp intelligence, a really great analytical mind with great emotional intelligence and people skills. She’s really helped me to regain a sense of confidence and inspiration having felt a little flat and given me lots of practical tips.
—Annabel Chown, Author
Everything I learned from Adela was valuable
Everything I learned from Adela was valuable. But the two things that really struck me were 1. Her creative thinking and her ability to think of unusual and interesting ways to put your name out there that I would never have thought of on my own. 2. The power of human connection and the importance of kindness and kind gestures. And connecting with others and building those relationships that will eventually set your business apart and make you the type of person that people will want to talk about and work with. It’s been a game changer to think in these ways and I’m so glad I have these tools in my toolkit for my business.
—Frenchie Ferenczi, Strategy Consultant
Adela’s content is brilliantly written, honestly absolutely masterful.
—Fleur Emery, Start Up Expert
A complete game-changer.
I was able to completely reframe the way I saw doing my own PR.
—Dr Anna Colton, Clinical Psychologist
I now have so much clarity and confidence to grow my brand.
Adela, your brain’s amazing!
You’ve given me so much clarity and confidence on growing my brand.
I highly recommend Adela for any start up.
You will be blown away by what she has to offer!
—Carla, Entrepreneur
Promoting my business now feels feel less scary and more achievable.
I never felt particularly comfortable putting myself out there and promoting my business. But after working with Adela things feel less scary and more achievable. I think that has something to do with the way Adela has structured her content and presented it with anecdotes and her personal experience. That really spurs you on.

“What if I’m not confident?”
And other FAQs
Q: What if I’m not confident?
Confident people are made not born. Your confidence will grow as you put out strong pitches. Pitch to Press will teach you exactly how to craft a perfect pitch and promote yourself. Once you start hearing back, your confidence will sky-rocket and I promise you you’ll get addicted to it. You’ll start collecting logos on your site like your teenager sticker collection!
Q: How long will Pitch to Press take to complete?
Pitch to Press is a 12 week programme starting on 5th April. Note you’ll receive instant access to Pitch Rockstar when you buy now so that you can kick start your PR journey.
You might have something in mind you want to pitch for. You can use Pitch Rockstar immediately to work through that side by side and nail that pitch.
Q: Normal people like me don’t get into magazines or podcasts
That’s exactly what I thought until I saw my face and my business in all that press. Editors have smart readers. They need normal people like you and me otherwise their readers switch off.
Q: Can’t I outsource this? It sounds like hard work.
Yes, you can. You just need to pay a lot for it. I teach you the life-long skills for whatever business you run now and in the future.
Q: I get butterflies when I think of pitching.
Fear often comes when we don’t understand something. Pitch to Press will replace your fear with clarity and confidence. The pep talk at the beginning will reframe how you see pitching. The deep dive chapters show you exactly how to craft a perfect pitch. The real life examples prove journalists aren’t that scary and that you’re actally doing them a favour. You’ve got this.
Q. Is Pitch to Press just for people pitching to magazines?
Nope. Pitch Rockstar is for anyone pitching their business to grow their audience, boost their credibility, raise their profile and get sales.
It’s for entrepreneurs wanting to be featured in podcasts, blogs, newsletters, Instagram lives, magazines, newsletter and collaborations with entrepreneurs. The principles in the course can be applied to emails, direct messages, voice notes or face to face meetings
I’m Adela and my last business was featured in Harvard Business Review. Without me pitching.
12 months earlier I was drowning, trying to run my business and do FB Ads, network, social posts, blogs and constantly feeling I wasn’t getting anywhere with it. I’d fired 2 publicists because I was running out of money and not getting any tangible results.
I had nightmares about returning to my dull consulting job. And then I realised something. I’d spent 20 years as a management consultant being judged every day because of the colour of my skin. I’d already been pitching non-stop for 20 years. So I decided to focus hard on one thing. Pitching my business myself to the media.
This is what I achieved in 12 months:
14 pieces of press in publications like The Guardian, Stylist Magazine, and The Telegraph
4 full pages in The Sunday Telegraph worth $150k free advertising
Turned down TV appearances in the Dragon’s Den and press when it didn’t feel right for the business
In 18 months I got my start up featured here without spending a penny:
Those logos add so much credibility, right? Let’s make this happen for you.
