The Austin media landscape
Pitches here go to the Austin American-Statesman, the Austin Business Journal, the Austin Chronicle, KUT, and the four affiliates: KXAN, KVUE, CBS Austin, and Fox 7 Austin.
Built In Austin covers the tech beat, and the Austin Current took over local civic reporting when the Austin Monitor stopped publishing in 2025. These desks are small and they cover growth, funding, layoffs, and permits. A pitch lands here when it carries a local number, not a national press release.

The invoice
What PR costs in Austin
Most firms sell a monthly retainer, bill you for meetings, and hand the account to someone junior.
Austin firms quote $2,000 to $20,000 a month, and most of that buys meetings, not placements.
We price per placement instead: publications from around $95, ranked listicle spots from around $400 by position, broadcast segments from $700 by market size, print pages from $1,400, and Forbes campaigns scoped and priced in writing before kickoff. You see the outlet, its audience, the turnaround time, and whether it is sponsored before you approve it. See the full rate card.

Questions
Asked before a Austin campaign
Anything else, email [email protected] and it comes back in 1 to 2 hours.
Retainers in Austin run $2,000 to $20,000 a month, and a single launch project starts near $10,000. We price per placement instead: publications from around $95, listicle spots from around $400, broadcast from $700, Forbes campaigns priced in writing before kickoff. The guarantee backs every one.
Yes, and it is the only one we have. AceIt works from 5900 Balcones Drive # 22486, Austin, TX 78731, phone 512 543 0250. Every other city page on this site says plainly that we serve that market from here. Austin is the one where we live.
Placements by outlet tier, audience reached, branded search lift, referral traffic, and how many of those turn into conversations with buyers. You get one monthly report, written by the person doing the pitching. A hit report on its own is not a result.
You get your money back. Outlet tiers, deliverables, and timelines are agreed before kickoff, and if we do not deliver what we committed to on the timeline we committed to, you are refunded. That commitment is in the contract, not in a sales call.
