Ask HN: Locating PR for an app startup?
I have developed an app that I believe has a lot of potential for downloads and profitability.  I also think it has a great backstory that would be worthy of TechCrunch, etc.<p>Now to reality: I&#x27;ve reached out on upwork, I&#x27;ve tried calling PR firms and getting sent straight to voicemail, and I&#x27;ve tried filling in their webforms.<p>Crickets.<p>Either my idea and app has merit and I could pay them to give me some PR, or my idea and app do not,  and they could still take my money to try and fail to generate the PR.<p>I feel like I&#x27;m standing on a street corner trying to hand out $100 bills, no strings attached, and no takers.<p>Can anyone recommend a PR&#x2F;app marketing firm or individual with a competent intake process?
