Our story

A note from the founders

Hi from James and Adam,

We ran PR and growth agencies for years. We know the job, because we did it ourselves.

Every day started with alerts. News, newsletters, journalist requests and social feeds. Most weren't a fit, but we still had to sift through them all.

Every good opportunity needed research. Was it right for the client? Who was covering it? What had already been said?

Then came the angle. Most clients didn't know what made them interesting, so we'd dig out their data and their views on trending topics.

And the deadlines never waited. A journalist would ask for comment by 3pm, and by the time we'd drafted a quote and got sign-off, it was gone.

Thought leadership was a job of its own. Finding the right trade and mainstream titles, landing the guest post, then ghostwriting the article.

So we built Big Ears to do the heavy lifting. Our agents do the listening, the sifting and the first drafts, so you can focus on the work only you can do.

P.S. The name says what it does. Big Ears hears everything in your market, so you don't have to.
