How Scribble Made Kids’ Art the Hottest Thing in Parenting Press
How a startup turned messy macaroni masterpieces into a media moment.
Before Don’t Be A Little Pitch
Scribble had the genius idea every parent secretly needs, turn your kid’s endless art pile into gorgeous, guilt-free keepsake books.
Problem was, they were living in the “cool startup your friend told you about” phase. They had a killer product, but barely any mainstream awareness.
They wanted:
- National coverage in parenting, lifestyle, and gift outlets
- Angles that sparked parent pride (and a little FOMO)
- Press that positioned them as the solution to clutter, guilt, and mom/dad overwhelm
We knew exactly how to make parents (and editors) salivate.
The PR Glow-Up
The Strategy
We didn’t just pitch “photo books.” We pitched the magic trick every parent wishes they knew sooner.
Our emotional hook: “Stop drowning in glitter and glue. Start showing off their genius.”
We married that with gifting angles (holidays, Mother’s Day, teacher gifts), organization hacks, and sustainable parenting narratives that editors couldn’t resist.
