I'll admit that Pitch With Me isn't for every client or every pitch. That said, I do think Pitch With Me will be especially useful for PR people when they're pitching a "trend" story and need multiple sources to illustrate the trend. Likewise, it could help turn a piece of news into a bigger story -- perhaps by adding adding a professor, a researcher or some other expert. To post a query, you don't have to reveal your client or the exact targeted media outlet. You could craft a query that elicits the responses you need without giving away too many details. Think of Pitch with Me as the tool that comes before the pitch is actually finalized. Hope that helps answer your question.

I am often pitching stories under embargo which would not work with Twitter or any kind of social networking site that is viewed by anyone. I would imagine I am not the only one who pitches many stories under embargo and wonder how you deal with this? I love this idea but have one concern.
