Three outcomes small businesses see consistently — with numbers
20–50% Website Conversion Uplift
Adding "As Featured On Forbes, Business Insider, Entrepreneur" to your homepage, pricing page, and contact page creates an immediate trust signal that reduces buyer hesitation. Small businesses consistently report 20–50% improvements in website conversion rates within 30 days of adding Tier-1 publication logos. The same traffic converts at a higher rate — no increase in ad spend required.
Page 1 Google Rankings via DA 80–95+ Backlinks
Every editorial placement includes a permanent, Google-indexed backlink from a publication with domain authority scores of DA 80–95+. These are among the highest-value backlinks available to any business. Google indexes these links and they continue improving keyword rankings for months and years after publication — long after the placement fee has been recovered.
Doubled Lead Volume — Real Client Result
A BruntWork executive reported that their lead volume doubled after appearing on Apple News and MarketWatch. "Makes a big difference when your start-up can boast that you've appeared on Apple News and MarketWatch. It has helped new customers trust us in a very competitive market." This outcome compounds over time as more placements accumulate.
35–45% Shorter Sales Cycles for B2B Small Businesses
B2B small businesses report 35–45% shorter sales cycles after Forbes or Business Insider features. Enterprise and corporate prospects verify press coverage before the first call — arriving pre-qualified rather than sceptical. The credibility question is answered before it's asked, removing the most common friction point in the sales process.

Why small businesses get better value from guaranteed PR than from traditional agencies
Traditional PR agencies charge small businesses $5,000–$15,000 per month for best-efforts campaigns with no guaranteed outcomes and 3–6 month timelines before any coverage appears. Baden Bower's model is structurally different — you only commit to publications that have been confirmed as deliverable before you pay.
| Factor | Baden Bower Guaranteed | Traditional PR Agency |
|---|---|---|
| Publications confirmed upfront | ✓ Named in contract before payment | ✗ Pitched speculatively — no guarantee |
| Time to first placement | 7–14 days from draft approval | 3–6 months typical, often longer |
| Money-back guarantee | ✓ Full refund if placement not delivered | ✗ Retainer kept regardless of results |
| Starting cost for small businesses | $990 one-off · $1,950/month annual | $5,000–$15,000/month typical |
| Article type | Journalist-authored editorial — no sponsored label | Varies — often press releases or sponsored posts |
| SEO value | DA 80–95+ backlinks — permanent Google value | Varies — often low-authority or no-follow |
| Suitability for small businesses | ✓ All plan sizes — from $990 one-off | Minimum budgets typically exclude small businesses |
How PR for small businesses works with Baden Bower — five steps
Strategy call — your business, goals, and target publications
The Baden Bower team discusses your business, target audience, and commercial objectives. You select the publications you want to be featured in. Baden Bower confirms which outlets are achievable for your specific brand and market before any commitment is made.
Named publications written into your agreement — before payment
The exact outlets — Forbes, Business Insider, Entrepreneur, Yahoo Finance, or others you've selected — are written into your client agreement before a single dollar is paid. The money-back guarantee is formalised at this stage. No other PR agency does this.
A journalist writes a compelling article about your business
An experienced journalist from Baden Bower's network writes a human-authored editorial article about your business. The article highlights what makes your small business unique — your story, your competitive advantages, your vision. No AI generation, no press release templates.
You review and approve the draft before it goes live
The completed draft is shared with you before submission. You confirm factual accuracy and can request changes. For small businesses with a strong brand voice, Baden Bower's writers match your tone during the briefing stage.
Article goes live — you receive the URL and add the logos immediately
Your article goes live within 7–14 days of approval. You receive the direct URL the moment it publishes. Baden Bower provides a placement report and downloadable logo assets so you can add "As Featured On Forbes" to your website, landing pages, and email signatures immediately.
What small business clients say after getting featured in publications
"Since using Baden Bower, our lead volume has doubled. Makes a big difference when your start-up can boast that you've appeared on Apple News and MarketWatch. Has helped new customers trust us in a very competitive market."
"Baden Bower completely changed how we handle PR. Their approach helped us get twice as much local media coverage in just three months. Since working with them, we've seen a 40% jump in customer enquiries and even opened two new locations."
"We immerse ourselves in each client's business — understanding what makes their story worth telling, and then getting that story in front of the audiences that matter most. For small businesses, the impact of a single Forbes or Business Insider feature can be transformative. It levels the playing field against brands with ten times the marketing budget."
