Questions
Before you book.
Who reads Future Sharks?
Founders, investors, and operators building companies — skewing early-stage builders and growth-stage executives. High intent, low tolerance for noise.
Do you publish press releases?
No bare press releases. Sponsored content has to tell a real story — a founder’s journey, a product insight, a hard-won lesson. We’ll help shape it.
How is this different from being featured?
Sponsored placements are paid brand content, always labeled “Sponsored.” An editorial feature is an earned, independent profile of you — that’s our Get Featured program, not advertising.
How fast can we go live?
Sponsored features typically publish within 5–7 business days of copy approval. Newsletter placements run in the next scheduled issue after booking.
