Herald

File once. Reach every feed.

Releases, placements, clips and promotions in front of an owned audience, run by an in-house desk.

Herald is how a story leaves the desk: one brief, published across 100+ owned platforms and the group's social accounts.

Six products share one network, one desk and one report. Sponsored, partnership and advertorial labels are enforced on every property, so readers always know what they are reading.
