Logos do not create trust the way they used to. More often, people want to see the human behind the company. Baden Bower, the global PR agency led by AJ Ignacio, helps executives step into public view by securing placements in major publications like Forbes and Business Insider. Unlike typical firms, it offers guaranteed results.
CEOs Can’t Stay Behind the Curtain Anymore
Keeping quiet no longer works for leaders. In 2025, visibility matters. Executives are expected to speak up and stay present. Searches for “digital PR” have jumped 34% worldwide since 2020, including a 32% climb in the U.S. alone. These numbers show how personal branding strategy in PR is now a driving force behind influence and credibility.
“When we first offered guaranteed media coverage, many people said it was impossible,” says Ignacio. “We didn’t follow the standard playbook.”
That decision led to fast growth. While most firms move at around 6.1% annually, Baden Bower pulled in 136% year-on-year growth. It proves that the connection often starts with a person, not a brand.
Helping Leaders Tell Stories That Stick
Baden Bower creates content that editors want to publish. Its team brings together writers and media professionals who know how to shape a clear, readable story.
Readers want real insights from business leaders. Executives who explain what they stand for and how they think tend to earn trust more quickly. Baden Bower helps them put those ideas into words that resonate.
“We focus on delivering what works,” says Ignacio. “We back our work with a refund guarantee.”
This model appeals to startups looking to build presence, small businesses competing for attention, and B2B firms that need to be seen as reliable voices.
Managing Careers Like Companies
Many professionals now treat their careers like ventures. They take control of their reputations and stay ready for new moves when the timing is right.
Baden Bower has helped more than 1,800 clients gain more than 5,000 media features. Each placement strengthens the personal brand and adds credibility to the company behind it. For many, the goal is simple: get published on Forbes, Entrepreneur, Business Insider, and other top-tier media outlets to show authority and build trust fast.
The firm forms partnerships with trusted media outlets and matches stories to the right audience. Its work connects people to names they might otherwise miss.
Publications featured on a client’s website often boost trust quickly. Even smaller companies benefit when visitors see recognizable media logos. It is a simple tactic, but one that makes an impression.
Staying Visible Gives an Edge
Leaders who stay hidden fall behind. Reports show that nearly 70% of PR agencies expect more business this year. Technology, energy, and public-sector clients are seeking out media coverage more than ever.
Control of your message matters. “The executives who make an impact are the ones who sound like people, not machines,” notes Ignacio.
Baden Bower uses writing backed by data to make sure campaigns connect. This balance has brought in clients from five continents, each looking for ways to be seen by the right people.
“Artificial intelligence (AI) tools and data tracking changed the way we build campaigns,” Ignacio adds. “We now spot patterns earlier, adjust content faster, and help clients reach more people.”
Traditional signals like job titles and degrees do not mean what they once did. Baden Bower helps clients build influence through clarity and character.
Trust grows when people speak clearly and consistently. Baden Bower gives business leaders the tools to stay visible, credible, and memorable.
