To get your startup in the press and hit your business goals, you have to master the basics of PR & Communications

But there’s a problem:

  • Outsourcing is expensive
  • Nobody has given you a clear plan to set up an in-house PR process
  • You’ve seen zero results from previous PR agencies
  • You don’t have time to spend 1000’s of hours looking through YouTube videos to learn the skills
  • Most training tools are boring and ineffective
  • Startups need a completely different PR approach compared to traditional big corporates and you don’t have a tailored plan to build your reputation.

Pioneer Academy has everything you need to get your business in the press all in one place. And for a fraction of the cost.

How can you get published and grow your business?

The market is flooded with self-help online courses, bloated training platforms and personality-driven hype. You don’t have time and money to buy each course and see if it is actually sharing anything of value or information you don’t already know. 

You need a crystal clear plan, that is value-driven, cost-effective, data-driven and is guaranteed to get you published and grow your business. 

Pioneer Academy is all about giving the knowledge and tools to generate leads and convert them through the power of the press. If you and your team understand the basics of public relations, communication and working with the press, you won’t waste any more time and money. Instead, your business will thrive.

Pioneer Academy Success

“I enrolled Pioneer Academy to gain more knowledge about the PR industry, especially in The Netherlands, and to catch a glimpse of how things really worked around the block.
 
Believe it or not, my journalism background was hindering my progress, more than boosting it; I was creating hyper-chewed stories for journalists, sending full articles ready to publish. Naturally, this did not work. At all. FAIL. But then, Pioneer helped me realise I was having great ideas and failing at execution.
 
It took me just a little bit of self-study, a consultancy call with Bianca and some trial and error to land my company in the print and online version of the Financial Dagblad! Hooray!
 

I will definitely be coming for more very soon and learning from this amazing community.

Thank you, Pioneer!”
