In this episode of the Small Business PR Podcast, Gloria makes her biggest announcement yet: after five years, the PR Starter Pack has officially transformed into the Get Featured Accelerator—a bold, unapologetic, AI-powered program designed for product makers who want free press without agencies, ads, or burnout.

This isn’t just a name change. It’s a complete upgrade in messaging, strategy, and support—rooted in Gloria’s journey of shedding “marketing shoulds” and embracing authenticity, community, and values-based PR.

Why Gloria Retired the PR Starter Pack

After helping hundreds of small business owners land millions of views, Gloria realized the old model no longer aligned. The new Get Featured Accelerator gives founders the access, clarity, and psychological safety they need to confidently pitch—and get featured—on outlets like Forbes, Marie Claire, and The New York Times.

The Role of AI in PR (and Why Time-Strapped Founders Need It)

PR doesn’t have to take hours. With AI integrations, founders can now generate data-backed angles and send relevant pitches in under 15 minutes a day. That’s less time than doomscrolling Instagram—and it works. One founder landed 6 features in just 30 days.

Why Authentic Messaging Matters More Than Ever

Gloria shares how she stopped assimilating into old-school marketing tactics—like fake urgency, “spray-and-pray” pitches, and neutral messaging—and began boldly stating her values (and what she rejects). The result? A community built on belonging, trust, and real human connection.

What Founders Will Get Inside the Get Featured Accelerator

• Daily curated PR opportunities delivered straight to your inbox
• AI-powered tools to help you pitch with confidence
• Direct coaching and unlimited support from Gloria herself (no faceless team of coaches)
• A safe, diverse, values-first community of product-based founders
• Proven systems to land year-round press in gift guides, podcasts, and national outlets
  
  

Final Takeaway

You don’t need to overspend on ads, agencies, or samples to get featured. What you need is:
 ✅ A bold, clear message
 ✅ Tools that save you time
 ✅ A repeatable, human-first system

The PR Starter Pack era is over. Welcome to the Get Featured Accelerator—where unapologetic founders get press on their own terms.
