Buzzscribed vs PublicAddress
PublicAddress is an Australian media database with email pitching. It sends emails through your email server -- your personal Microsoft or Google account -- which means your business inbox handles bulk sends, subject to the sending limits imposed by your provider.
Buzzscribed uses dedicated email infrastructure that keeps pitch campaigns separate from your day-to-day email. Beyond pitching, Buzzscribed tracks journalist engagement, manages interviews through to published coverage, gives clients their own real-time portal, and measures results with ProofScore measurement.
PublicAddress stops at find, pitch, and report. Buzzscribed continues through interviews, coverage proof, and live client reporting.
Buzzscribed also supports multiple release angles per campaign -- tailor your message for broadcast, print, and digital audiences from a single campaign. No other platform offers this.
