PR Boost

Public recognition isn’t optional – it’s a core requirement for both US and UK talent visas. To qualify, you need to be seen, cited, and respected in your field.

We help you get there through media features, podcast appearances, and industry events that put your expertise in the spotlight – for the world and your visa assessors alike.

PR Boost

Starts from 2200£ for 4 activities

Recognition That Counts

PR Boost turns your achievements into visible proof of leadership. We create a strategy that fits your visa case, secure features in the right media and events, and handle the process end-to-end – building a public presence that convinces assessors now and strengthens your reputation long after.

PR Boost

We know the tech ecosystem, the outlets that count, and the events that matter. With the right contacts and language, we place your story where it belongs.

No generic PR. We design a plan aligned with your visa case, selecting only the activities that strengthen your profile and meet application criteria.

This way, every step you take in media and public space directly supports your case.

We secure media coverage, podcast appearances, speaking roles, and opportunities to serve as a jury member, mentor, or industry expert – showcasing your leadership where it matters most. We propose opportunities that fit your topics and seniority level, while also taking into account your format preferences.

Some people prefer to focus on articles, while others shine in live talks and panels – either way, we build on your strengths and support you every step of the way.

We help you identify what’s most relevant and impactful in your journey. We take your raw experience and shape it into articles, talks, and presentations that resonate.

From finding the right angle to choosing the right outlet or event, we prepare the text, slides, or speech so your expertise is presented in a way that captures attention – and gets accepted.

Your publications and speaking appearances remain online, working for you long after the visa is approved, strengthening your reputation and opening doors to new opportunities worldwide.

Handling PR on your own means chasing journalists, writing drafts, and preparing for events – all on top of your day-to-day work. We take care of the process so you can stay focused on what you do best.

We handle everything – writing, pitching, and preparing you for appearances – so your profile grows without added effort.

"They cared to understand the Web3 cybersecurity to deliver a winning case"

"At Hacken, we do a lot across Web3 cybersecurity – both product and service work. The CSMPLT team took the time to deeply understand our business model, services, and industry specifics. Despite our dual structure, they expertly positioned my achievements to meet the “product-led” requirement of the UK Global Talent visa. As someone who works in professional services myself, I value true professionalism – and CSMPLT delivered exactly that. I’ve already recommended them to several colleagues."

"Moved from the US to the UK on Global Talent thanks to CSMPLT"

"They deeply understand the Global Talent criteria and know exactly how to extract the most relevant aspects of your background to meet them. What truly impressed me was how much time they invested in understanding my work — far beyond what I expected. That’s what sets them apart. They genuinely care about your field and aren’t afraid to dig deep to uncover the golden nuggets that make your case truly stand out. Highly recommended."

Andrew Will Skrypnyk
Founder and CEO, Promova
"They translated abstract CEO work into criteria-matching proof"

"My biggest challenge with the UK Global Talent visa was understanding what evidence they actually want from a CEO like me. I don’t write code or docs — I lead people, drive ideas, and get results. CSMPLT helped translate that into evidence that met the strict criteria. Their process was intense — they asked deep, almost painfully detailed questions — but it brought real clarity. Together we found the right angles, the right proof, and I got endorsed on the first try. Visas are painful, but CSMPLT made it as smooth as possible."

"I focused on my startup, they delivered the endorsement"

"The CSMPLT team took full ownership of the process and guided me every step of the way. They helped me understand the requirements, identify strong evidence, choose the right recommenders, and craft a compelling strategy. While I focused on growing Nibble, they handled everything — from positioning to paperwork. I’m a strong believer in specialisation and delegating to experts, and this was a perfect example. Thanks to their work, we achieved a positive Global Talent outcome without it becoming a distraction. Huge thanks to the team for making it seamless."

"They understand mobile apps business — and know how to package it for GTV"

"As Headway expanded internationally with new offices in London and Madrid, I turned to the CSMPLT team to help secure my UK residency permit. While I had a strong public profile, meeting the other Global Talent criteria was tricky. I wasn’t sure what evidence to use, but the team expertly guided me through it. Their understanding of the mobile apps business was outstanding — I didn’t need to explain a thing. They asked precise, metric-driven questions, making the process seamless. We secured the endorsement, and I literally spent no more than a couple of hours on all of this."

"CSMPLT delivered winning strategy tailored for tricky VC profile"

"With a broad and varied career, it was challenging to decide what to highlight for the GTV criteria. The CSMPLT team helped craft a sharp case strategy, focusing on what mattered and cutting what didn’t. Investor profiles are tricky, but the team knew exactly how to position mine for Tech Nation. They handled everything end-to-end – from positioning to execution – saving me at least 100 hours. I received a positive endorsement and couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Highly recommend them for anyone navigating this process."

"Reworked my case, secured endorsement, halved ILR timeline"

"After a rejected Global Talent application, I turned to CSMPLT team — and soon received my endorsement. They completely reworked my case, taking time to understand my work and distill it into a clear, compelling narrative. They guided me in identifying strong evidence and helped shape it into a coherent, criteria-aligned package. Their strategic insight and end-to-end support made all the difference. Moving from a Skilled Worker visa to Global Talent has now cut my ILR timeline dramatically. I highly recommend Ivan and his team."

"Approved for US and UK in record time with CSMPLT"

"I was referred to CSMPLT by Vital Laptenok at Burning Man, during a moment of reflection about my next steps. Once back in real life, I reached out and decided to pursue options in both the UK and US. The timeline was extremely tight, but CSMPLT accomplished what others said was impossible – in just one month everything was prepared and submitted, and two weeks later we had approval in the US. Shortly after, we filed in the UK and received another approval. Exceptional speed, flawless execution. Highly recommended."

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need PR Boost, or are my current public profile and strong achievements enough?

If you already have a strong public profile with international media coverage, high-profile talks, and independent recognition, you may not need additional PR. But many applicants discover gaps once they map their achievements against visa criteria.

A frequent situation we see is when a client is definitely a high-achieving professional – already in a senior role or on a strong career trajectory – but too busy driving results in their field to dedicate time and energy to public appearances. Sometimes people simply don’t enjoy publicity or never considered that they might need it. They may have one or two mentions from years ago, but nothing that reflects their current role and impact.

Even if you have strong achievements and recognition within your company, this alone is not enough. Talent visas expect you to demonstrate external recognition and acclaim. So, while your results may speak for themselves, in most cases that won’t satisfy visa assessors.

If this sounds like you, our PR Boost service is the right fit. You can also request a call with our expert to evaluate your specific profile.

What if I don’t have any media experience or a public profile yet?

That’s exactly where we help. We know how to uncover relevant insights in your journey, package them into PR-ready stories, and place them where visa assessors – and the industry – will notice.

However, keep in mind that if all your evidence of public recognition or acclaim is based on very recent activity, assessors often treat it as shallow or insufficient. If you don’t have other, older evidence of public recognition, plan enough time for new PR activities to age and gain credibility before submitting your application.

How long does the process take?

It depends on your goals and timing. A single article can go live within weeks, while building a strong, diversified public presence typically takes several months. We adapt the pace to fit your visa application timeline.

However, if you have no prior media presence and all your evidence will be newly developed, plan enough time for these PR activities to age and gain credibility before submitting your application. Visa assessors often view very recent examples of public recognition as insufficient – they strongly prefer to see a track record.

Will this PR only help my visa case?

No – PR Boost delivers professional PR that keeps working for you far beyond your visa application. Publications, talks, and online content remain visible long term, boosting your credibility, opening doors, and strengthening your global reputation. It supports future visas, career growth, fundraising, and even building a new social or professional network in a new location.

One client even used their media publications when renting an apartment in a new country! Without a local guarantor, previous landlord recommendation, or complete paperwork, they presented their public profile as part of their bid – and won the apartment over other competitive bidders. The landlord specifically cited the client’s reputable media presence as a key factor.

What types of opportunities can you secure?

Media features, podcast appearances, speaking roles at conferences and panels, jury/judging invitations, mentorship and expert roles – tailored to your strengths and seniority.

How involved do I need to be?

We handle the heavy lifting – drafting, pitching, and coordinating with media and organizers. Your role is to share your expertise, give feedback, and approve final versions before launch. And if it’s a live event, simply show up, participate, and hopefully enjoy the spotlight!

What if I prefer writing vs. speaking (or vice versa)?

We adapt to you. If you shine in writing, we focus on articles and thought pieces. If you thrive in live settings, we secure panels and talks. Either way, we build on your strengths.

For the strongest impact on your visa case, we recommend a diversified mix of activities. The exact proportion and combination are tailored to your preferences and comfort level.

How do you choose which outlets or events to target?

We focus on three key criteria:

  • relevance to your visa case
  • credibility of the outlet or event
  • alignment with your expertise, seniority, and preferred formats

Is this guaranteed to get my visa approved?

No single factor can guarantee approval – but strong PR significantly strengthens your application. It provides independent, verifiable proof of your impact and third-party recognition of your talent and expertise, which visa assessors look for.
