PR for Recruitment Agencies

PR for Recruitment Agencies

If you’re running a recruitment agency and still relying on word of mouth, LinkedIn posts, and hoping your “client care” does the selling for you — you’re already ten steps behind.

Pearl Lemon PR doesn’t do theory. We put your recruitment agency in front of decision-makers, media outlets, industry analysts, and search engines — in ways that make your competitors quietly stalk your LinkedIn, wondering what changed.

Here’s the answer: visibility. It’s not the kind that comes from a one-off mention in a dead blog. We’re talking press mentions that send traffic, PR angles that open doors, and media strategies that stick in the heads of both clients and candidates.

We’ll show you where the press is — and how to walk into it.

Our Services

This isn’t a “nice to have.” Strong PR gives your agency authority. It builds a footprint that makes you easier to trust, easier to refer to, and harder to ignore.

Our services solve the core issues most agencies face: lack of visibility, weak perceived credibility, and unpredictable client flow.

Media Outreach & Placement

We don’t write fluff. We write pitches and bylines that journalists pick up — because we know how to speak their language, not just yours.

We build media lists specific to your verticals — tech, finance, healthcare, exec search — and pitch you into relevant trade and mainstream outlets. This generates backlinks, increases domain authority (DA), and moves you up in organic rankings.

Problem it solves: You’re not in the conversations that influence your prospects.
Impact: 3–6 placements per month = 10x SEO visibility and measurable brand lift.

Reputation Management & Crisis Control

One viral post from a disgruntled ex-candidate or client can undo years of trust. We actively monitor, manage, and counteract that damage with controlled narratives, reactive press strategies, and digital clean-up.

Problem it solves: Negative reviews, damaging press, or online misinformation.
Impact: Fast suppression of harmful links on page one of search results within 30–60 days.

Reputation Management & Crisis Control

Thought Leadership Development

We ghostwrite expert-level content under your name and get it placed in relevant media: think HR Zone, Recruiter Magazine, Business Insider, and more.

You’re seen as the go-to voice on hiring trends, DEI, AI in recruitment, salary insights, or whatever your lane is.

Problem it solves: No one knows your expertise — even if it’s gold.
Impact: Better lead quality and increased inbound traffic from branded search queries.

PR for SEO

We create and pitch long-tail, keyword-rich content designed to generate authoritative backlinks and improve SERP rankings for key commercial terms like “recruitment agency for [industry],” “exec search London,” and “best recruitment agency [sector].”

Problem it solves: Weak SEO rankings and underperforming lead gen from search.
Impact: Link velocity from high DA sites improves keyword ranking in 90 days.

Podcast Booking & Interview Outreach

Podcast Booking & Interview Outreach

We pitch and place your key team members on high-reach industry podcasts, webinars, and recruitment summits. You don’t just get quoted — you get invited.

Problem it solves: No brand voice in the industry.
Impact: More referral traffic, high-value inbound links, increased social shares, and credibility with target clients.

Awards & Recognition Submission

You’ve got results. We make sure you get the trophies to prove it. We identify and submit your agency for recruitment awards, DEI recognitions, and business growth accolades.

Problem it solves: No third-party proof of excellence.
Impact: 2–5 awards shortlists annually = media mentions + sales leverage.

Awards & Recognition Submission

Press Kit & Positioning Assets

We build a ready-to-deploy digital press kit: bios, agency fact sheet, recent media, awards, and media angles. When a journalist needs something, it’s ready.

Problem it solves: Missed press opportunities due to poor preparedness.
Impact: Journalists say yes 3x faster when you hand them a full kit with assets and angles.

Ongoing PR Retainers with Metrics

Monthly reports show earned media value, placements, DA lift, traffic from backlinks, branded search changes, and more. No fluff reports. Just cold, clear data.

Problem it solves: Wasting money on an activity that doesn’t deliver ROI.
Impact: ROI tracked by qualified leads, organic lift, and earned media valuation.
