Press features
Last updated: November 2026. Published by Ace Branding.
A guaranteed press feature is an article about you, written from your interview and approved by you, that a contributor submits to a publication through an established network.
Ace Branding says it offers guaranteed publishing in over 800 publications across the US and worldwide, and its homepage lists 4,773 articles published. The defining rule of its process is simple: nothing is submitted until you approve the final draft, so you keep control of your story from interview to live link.
They work through a fixed sequence: questionnaire, interview, draft, your edits, your approval, contributor submission, publication review, and a live link. Ace Branding publishes each step, shown below.
Complete the press questionnaire and schedule an interview
The questionnaire takes about 6 minutes. When selected, the team contacts you to schedule a live interview.
Editorial staff writes the first draft
It is based on your interview and written about you or your company using your story.
The editing cycle runs until your team approves
You send edits until the final draft is right.
The final draft goes to the contributor
The contributor submits it for approval with the publication
Once approved, the publication publishes the article
The link goes live
Definition
A press feature is a full article about a person or company published in a news or magazine outlet, as opposed to a passing mention. At Ace Branding, a press feature is written about you using your own story, on topics you choose, with the stated goal of giving readers real value rather than just putting your name in a headline.

Case studies
Two published case studies report outcomes beyond the features themselves.
| Client | Features | Reported outcome |
|---|---|---|
| Rabu Gary | 27 full features | Qualified for social media verification and grew his business by over 200% |
| UIGISC | 30 full features | Grew from 100,000 members to over 300,000 members globally |
| Good Ranchers | 19 full features | Featured in outlets including Forbes, USA Today, Men’s Journal, and Success Magazine |
Outcomes as reported by Ace Branding in its case studies. Results vary by client.
Choose guaranteed features when you need dependable, approved coverage to anchor your search results, a speaker page, or a sales conversation. Choose pitching when you have timely news a journalist will want to cover on their own terms.
Industry data shows pitching can move quickly: BuzzStream research cited by Reporter Outreach found 81% of digital PR pros land first coverage within a week of pitching. The difference is control. With a guaranteed feature, you approve every word.
FAQ
With Ace Branding, a guaranteed press feature is placed through its publishing network instead of being pitched and hoped for. You complete a press questionnaire, an editor interviews you, a writer drafts the article, and you edit it until you approve it. A contributor then submits it to the publication, and once the publication approves, the article goes live.
An Ace Branding writer drafts it from an interview with a member of the editorial staff. The article is written about you or your company using your own story, and the topics depend on what you want to discuss. Ace Branding says the goal is an article that gives readers real value, not just your name in a headline.
Yes. Ace Branding sends you the rough draft for review and edits, and the editing cycle continues until your team approves the final draft. Nothing is submitted for publishing until you approve it. Ace Branding calls this narrative control, meaning you decide how your story is told before it ever reaches the publication.
Ace Branding says it offers guaranteed publishing in over 800 publications across the US and worldwide. Its company timeline notes that between 2020 and 2023 it established a publishing network of hundreds of publications. Which outlets suit you depends on your story and goals, so ask for the current list on a discovery call.
Ace Branding case studies list outlets including Forbes, USA Today, LA Times, Nasdaq, Maxim, Men's Journal, and Success Magazine. Good Ranchers earned 19 full features, Rabu Gary earned 27, and UIGISC earned 30, according to the case studies on acebranding.com. Placements vary by client, so treat these as examples rather than a promise of specific outlets.
Timing depends on the editing cycle and on the publication's own approval step, so Ace Branding does not publish a fixed turnaround. Across the industry, BuzzStream data cited by Reporter Outreach shows 81% of digital PR pros land first coverage within a week of pitching. Ask Ace Branding for current timelines on the specific outlets you want.
No. A pitched story depends on a journalist choosing to cover you, so results are uncertain. A guaranteed feature is written with you, approved by you, and submitted through a contributor, which is why Ace Branding can guarantee it. Many thought leaders use both: guaranteed features for a dependable base, and pitching for timely, opportunistic coverage.
Ace Branding offers a 15 minute, no obligation discovery call. Bring your goals and your story, and ask for a quote and the guarantee terms in writing.
