As new media fragments attention and AI eats away at traditional search, our tomorrow-ready model is built for how people discover and trust information today.
While earned media remains a cornerstone, we don’t stop there. We apply the same strategic thinking and storytelling expertise to your owned and shared channels, ensuring your brand stays visible, credible, and AI-retrievable.
Shape the Narrative, Train the Algorithm We start with a dual audit of your brand visibility to both humans and large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude. Then, we craft messaging that resonates with real audiences and trains the algorithms shaping today’s search. We map your narratives across earned and owned media, ensuring message consistency and generative engine optimisation (GEO) built in from the first step.
Training for AI and the New Media Landscape
We train your spokespeople to communicate with clarity, confidence, and credibility across formats, from broadcast and panels to short-form video and virtual interviews. Sessions include mock interviews and AI-driven feedback.
For internal teams, our “Think Like AI” workshops reframe how you write, publish, and position expertise. The goal: make your content optimised for AI discovery while aligning internal comms, marketing, and PR.
Execution That Extends Your Reach We bring it all together by creating thought leadership, securing earned coverage across traditional and new media outlets, and optimising your owned platforms - from blog posts to press releases to FAQs. Every piece is crafted to amplify your authority across the ecosystems that matter most, whether human or machine. We measure success through share of voice, search presence, and AI discoverability.

What Our Clients Say
We worked with Peppercomm/Progressive to launch the ZAG Innovation Fund globally. Their expertise and strategic approach significantly amplified our message, reaching new stakeholders and successfully engaging solution providers across the world and showcasing our commitment to helping people, communities and the environment thrive through the goodness of kiwifruit.
With the successful launch of the ZAG Innovation Fund behind us, we look forward to continued collaborations as we expand and build our innovation and nutrition platforms.
Whether at Dole, or with various other partners of The Shed 28 – we trust the team at Peppercomm & Progressive to always get it right. They get the ‘earned approach’ to brands and are wonderful humans to partner with. Knowing and working with Tarun & his teams for several years has allowed us to further extend our work and the outcomes they generate around the globe. The Peppercomm/Progressive team continue to be valued partners, as we build brands that our conscience can live with.
Progressive (as Peppercomm) has been an invaluable partner in launching our PR and thought leadership campaigns across local and global remit. The team brings strategic expertise, openness to discussions, flexibility, and dedication to ensure that projects are delivered with impact. We are excited to continue working with the team to uplift Zespri kiwifruit to superfruit status.
Working with Progressive Communications has been and continues to be a great experience. We first partnered with them for our flagship annual conference “ULI Asia Pacific Summit” in Singapore, and subsequently in Tokyo. They are nimble and dedicated, making them an integral part of the ULI APAC communications team.
As we expand beyond earned media outreach to social media and content creation, the team has demonstrated their swiftness to adapt to our evolving business needs and ensure our tone of voice and narrative are there. I really appreciate their eagerness to amplify ULI’s voice strategically whenever any opportunities arise and keep raising the bar.
