PR / earned media: get a residential interior designer quoted and featured in major national home and lifestyle magazines (Sunset, Architectural Digest, Elle Decor, House Beautiful, Better Homes & Gardens, Dwell, Domino, Real Simple, Apartment Therapy, Veranda, Luxe) and leading Northern California titles.
Who: the principal designer of a full-service residential interior design studio in Northern California. Whole-home design, renovation and new construction, kitchen and bath, universal design and aging in place, high-end homes and second homes. The designer already has quotes in several well-known national home and lifestyle titles; the list goes to shortlisted freelancers. Do not pitch repeats of those; we want new, bigger titles and regional media.
What we want: named expert quotes, 'meet the expert' panels, contributed commentary, trend pieces grounded in real client work, and project features in the titles above plus California Home + Design and Northern California media (San Francisco Chronicle, Sacramento Magazine, Sactown, Marin Magazine, Comstock's, Sacramento Bee). Each placement should name the designer and the studio and, where the outlet allows, link to the studio site. Not every placement has to be top-tier, but every outlet must be a real, recognized publication with its own editorial staff.
How we work: the designer approves every pitch, quote, bio, headshot and project image before it goes to any editor. No fabricated quotes, credentials, projects, awards or clients. No bulk generic AI pitches in the designer's voice. No pay-to-play, sponsored content presented as editorial, link marketplaces or PBNs. No guarantees of rankings or traffic.
Payment: fixed price per confirmed placement, released after the article is live on the publication's real site with the designer named, plus the URL and (if present) the link and anchor. Links must stay live 12 months. Bigger titles earn a higher per-placement fee than regional ones; quote both.
Trial: one placement first. Before any outreach send (1) ten named outlets, (2) the editor, section or recurring feature you would pitch at each, (3) one sentence on why the designer fits, (4) the proposed angle, (5) a draft pitch for approval. We continue if the first placement is real editorial coverage and professionally handled.
To apply: price per placement for national magazines and for regional titles, 3-5 live placements you have earned in home, design, architecture or lifestyle magazines (URL plus the client each one names), and how you reach editors. Proposals that skip these will not be considered.
