At Global Talent PR, an immigration PR agency specializing in media relations services for EB-1A and O-1 visa applicants, we have a streamlined onboarding process to get to know our new clients and help us develop a personalized PR strategy for their visa application. Here’s an overview of what you can expect when getting started with our PR services for visa applicants!

1. Intake Form: Before our kickoff calls, we ask new clients to complete a detailed intake form. This covers key information like current professional position, EB-1A or O-1 visa application details, areas of expertise, preferred speaking topics, and any previous media experience. The intake form serves as the foundation for our discussion and personalized PR strategy for success.
2. Kickoff Call: Once the intake form is complete, we schedule a 30-60 minute kickoff call. On this call, we dive deeper into the client’s background, goals, and topic areas they are most comfortable with, focusing on how to best meet the EB-1A visa criteria or O-1 visa requirements. We also discuss the types of media opportunities we pursue, such as interviews, bylines, podcasts, as part of our visa application PR support. The call allows us to gain a thorough understanding of the client to personalize our approach for their EB-1A or O-1 visa petition process.
3. Customized Strategy: Based on the intake form and kickoff discussion, we develop a customized PR plan for each client.. Our immigration public relations firm identifies the most relevant media outlets, topics, and formats to showcase the client’s extraordinary ability while meeting the criteria for their EB-1A or O-1 visa eligibility. Our goal is to secure a mix of high-impact placements that strengthen their visa application.
4. Pitching and Securing Coverage: With the strategy in place, our team begins proactive visa applicant media outreach to the targeted outlets on the client’s behalf. We pitch them as an expert source and work to secure opportunities that will reach their target audience, enhancing their immigration brand management. Placements are always fully earned media, not paid, to meet EB-1A and O-1 visa requirements. We continue pitching until we have obtained the needed coverage for a compelling visa application narrative.
5. Reporting: At the end of the engagement, we provide the client with a detailed coverage report to support their EB-1A or O-1 visa application. This includes an overview of each media placement, outlet details, publication date, circulation/audience size, and other key data points. Our hands-on, customized approach to immigration public relations ensures each client receives the most impactful PR placements to support their professional credibility and visa application. We serve as a dedicated partner throughout the process and keep working until the client has the needed results for visa success.
