## What it does

The skill checks whether a story fits a media pitch, builds a list of outlets, and drafts journalist and podcast pitches under 200 words. It can also help answer requests on HARO, Qwoted, and Featured, assess newsjacking opportunities, and outline a press page with consistent company details and Organization schema.

Before asking questions, it checks for product context files such as `.agents/product-marketing.md` or `.claude/product-marketing.md`. Outputs include pitch drafts, a scored media list, or a press-kit checklist. Drafts are held for approval, so the skill does not send pitches on its own.

# Suede Public Relations & Earned Media

Suede AI Public Relations turns verified milestones, evidence, and timely angles
into respectful earned-media briefs for journalists, podcasts, and newsletters.
Coverage now does two jobs: it reaches readers, and it becomes the third-party
evidence search engines and AI assistants cite when buyers ask about the
category. This skill optimizes story fit and source usefulness without treating
a drafted pitch as sent or coverage as earned.

## Before Starting

**Check for product marketing context first:**
If `.agents/product-marketing.md` exists (or `.claude/product-marketing.md`, or the legacy `product-marketing-context.md` filename, in older setups), read it before asking questions. Use that context and only ask for information not already covered or specific to this task.

## Core Philosophy

PR is not a substitute for distribution. Treat it as a channel hypothesis whose
value must be measured against the current audience, story, and sales motion.

- **Do not assume a placement drives or cannot drive conversion.** Track referral
  behavior, brand search, citations, and sales influence for this campaign.
- **Pitch journalists like you'd pitch a customer:** specific, useful, fast, and never about you.
- **The story is not your product. The story is the trend, the data, the conflict, or the human.** Your product is the evidence.
- **Test speed against relevance and accuracy.** Use the story's observed
  coverage curve and deadline; never trade verification for haste.

### When PR is worth it

- You have **a real story**: proprietary data, a strong opinion, a milestone, a customer with a sharp before/after, or a fresh angle on a trending topic
- You have **founder/exec time**: journalists want quotes from people with skin in the game, not from a PR rep
