Press Hunt 2.0 - A database of ~400k journalists to feature your business 🤩

Been quite useful in finding and reaching out to journalists for my NYU club’s work. We got a piece written about a new hackathon we launched a few weeeks ago. The new dashboards and lists make the UX even better. Thanks 🚀

I've launched a number of projects that I look for press and often the most time consuming part is finding and researching relevant journalists. I was extremely please with how easy Press Hunt is to use. I had a whole list of journalists that I wanted to contact but was unable to find accurate emails and Press Hunt did the job. I would highly recommend it.

Pros:

Great access to journalist contacts

Cons:

Inevitable with a big data set, but you still have to do a little research to make sure you are contacting relevant people on your own.

Good shit, Matt. Proud of you 👏

Eager to try out 2.0 - Nice work!

Among the worst services I've ever used in my years in marketing and PR. - Several of the journalists contacted asked where I'd got their details, on informing them of 'presshunt' they all said they were unaware and many seemed to wish to be removed. - Majority of emails are defunct. I highly suspect most emails that do work go to Spam. - The most painful part: Cancelling your account! A Kafka-esque labyrinth of endless online forms, reduced-price offers to stay, and emails from staff to fill out yet another form, with the promise of then allowing you cancel. It genuinely took days for them to agree to cancel the account, during which I basically had to threaten legal action. I am convinced this is a scam site that doesn't comply to GDPR. Avoid at all costs.
