Real editorial features on Inman, HousingWire, Mansion Global, Realtor Magazine, Robb Report, and the local press buyers, sellers, and referral agents already open every Sunday morning. MLS-safe drafting. Full agent approval before anything publishes.
A homeowner in Paradise Valley plans to list a five-million-dollar property. They got your name from a past client. They Google you. The first page returns your Zillow Premier tile, a three-year-old Realtor.com bio, and a LinkedIn summary written back when you were on a different team. No editorial coverage. No third-party article explaining why you close luxury inventory faster than the agent two doors down.
They close the tab. They call the agent with a Mansion Global feature and two Inman profiles. You never hear the phone not ring. The listing decision happened, or did not happen, before a single listing presentation got booked.
A press release blast sends a career announcement to 300 clone sites sellers never visit. A real editorial feature puts your name inside a publication the buyer-and-seller universe already reads every morning. We run the editorial relationship so you stay focused on listing appointments.
Our editorial team drafts the story from scratch. A metro-market angle, a listing-specialist interview, two or three recent comps with numbers, and direct quotes pulled from a 30-minute call. MLS advertising rules checked against the board you belong to and every state where you hold a license.
The article ships to Inman, HousingWire, Realtor Magazine, Mansion Global, Robb Report, Forbes Real Estate Council, or the local business journal that covers your metro. Domain authority 70 to 94. One canonical URL, one permanent dofollow backlink, one article a referring agent across the country already trusts before the intro call.
Indexed within 48 hours on tier-one residential outlets. Ranking on branded queries inside thirty days. Cited by ChatGPT and Perplexity when relocating buyers ask best real estate agent in Austin or top listing agent in Miami Beach inside sixty to ninety days.
Every retainer placement includes the full editorial stack. Drafting, MLS review, outlet pitch, agent approval, indexing, and AI visibility tracking across the surfaces your buyers, sellers, and referring agents actually use.
Most top producers already burn on Zillow Premier, Realtor.com Showcase, direct mail, and a RealTrends badge renewal. Here is what each actually delivers per dollar, and where an editorial feature does work nothing else on the list can touch.

Most traditional luxury real estate PR retainers start at seven to fifteen thousand a month and refuse to sign anything shorter than a year. You pay for the pitch effort whether or not the placements land. We replaced that model with tiers a top producer can run on for one quarter without a team huddle.
No slide deck. No sales engineer. Joey runs the call, Joey builds the coverage plan, Joey writes the first article if the agent moves forward.
They paid a luxury PR firm ten grand a month for a year and ended up with a Forbes Real Estate Council byline they could have bought directly and a two-line mention in a Realtor Magazine roundup. They renewed their Zillow Premier Agent spend at two grand a month per ZIP and watched the lead quality slip after the 2024 settlement reshuffled buyer agency. Meanwhile, the agent across town had an Inman profile, a Mansion Global listing feature, and showed up in every ChatGPT answer when a relocating buyer asked best agents in the metro.
So we built a version of digital PR that works for the way residential agents actually make money. Real editorial features on the outlets buyers and referral agents already open. MLS-compliance drafting against your local board. Agent sign-off before anything publishes. Pricing a solo top producer can run on for a quarter without a team partner huddle. Agents can start with one placement and test whether the machine works before committing to a retainer. The ones who see referrals move up. The ones who do not keep their money.
