Too often, media coverage creates buzz but fails to influence sales. The core issue isn’t visibility—it’s activation. Without being systematically integrated into ABM campaigns, nurture sequences, and sales cadences, even high-quality coverage gets lost in the noise. In today’s trust-driven B2B tech landscape, third-party validation must be treated as a sales asset, not just a PR win. When used strategically, earned media can build credibility, open doors, and accelerate the buyer’s journey at every stage.
