The record

Build the engine, then run it

Yenom started with The PR Sprint: two months on core messages, priority outlets and the angles worth pitching, before a single approach was made. The Momentum Partnership has run it every month since. Each month makes the next one easier, because the relationships are already in place when the story appears. Eight placements across six outlets, a front page, and 22:37* of radio airtime — with a monthly recurring segment now running on 2MCE.

“Working hard and still going backwards”

Central West Village Voice · Issue 129 · 16 July 2026 · by Amanda di Medici

A first-person column on the working poor, drafted by Stitch and published under Amanda's own name. Ghost-written authority placement puts the client's argument in front of a community readership in their own voice.

“Women & Money” on 2MCE

2MCE Community Drive · Sharon Williams · 22 July 2026 · in studio

The first of a recurring monthly run. On air at the end of the segment, the presenter asked Amanda back “on a monthly, every four weeks”. A standing booking is the most durable outcome media relations can produce.

Scams Prevention Framework

Banking Day · 24 June 2026

Amanda quoted as an independent voice in the national banking trade press, on why the Scams Prevention Framework “regulates the getaway but not the robbery”. The only national-tier placement in the set, and evidence the independence positioning travels beyond regional media.

Beyond the media

On stages, in the room

Media coverage and speaking build on each other. Each appearance produces assets, quotes and proof points that make the next pitch land.

How it was done

The retainer difference

01

The story before the pitch

Two months on messaging before any outreach. Every placement since runs the same line: financial wellbeing is a right, not a sales opportunity. Independence is the story, so it carries into finance trade press and community radio alike.

02

Relationships, not send-outs

The front page came from a newsroom that already knew who Amanda was. The monthly segment came from a producer who had heard her once and wanted her back. Neither came from a media release.

03

Owning the by-line

Where an interview isn't the right fit, Stitch drafts the column and the client signs it. Two placed so far, published under Amanda's own name in her own voice.

Want this kind of run for your business?

This is The PR Sprint followed by The Momentum Partnership, which is how most ongoing Stitch clients start. The engine gets built first, then run with consistency.

* Stitch calculation. Radio airtime is the sum of Isentia-logged durations for monitored segments, including lead-ins and back-announces. Excludes any segment not under monitoring at the time it aired.

Central West Village Voice distribution of 10,000 print copies per fortnightly edition across the Lithgow, Bathurst, Oberon and Blayney regional areas, supplied by the publisher. Distribution counts copies printed and delivered; it is not a readership measurement and the two are not interchangeable. Readership has been requested and is not published here.
