FAQs
How does INTERVIEWHUB work?
Insofar as our magazine, newspaper and website editor clients are concerned, we work in two main ways: we provide ‘buy now’ content that can be bought and received in an hour, or they commission exclusive and entirely bespoke content, which we produce and supply to an agreed brief and deadline. Naturally, the latter service takes slightly longer, and costs slightly more than the ready-to-go service.
How we’re able to supply such leading, highly-topical names is easy: because of the reach of the ITN brand and our network of 100s of industry-experienced journalists, we’re kept very firmly in the loop with all of the best current interview opportunities.
What are your typical prices?
For Buy Now content, we provide a 750-word interview, plus an approved high-resolution image for just £79, with an option to add extra words and images. Click here for further details.
And for a bespoke piece, our prices start from just 15p per word.
My publication requires all interviews to be exclusive. Is this a problem?
Certainly not. Our bespoke angle means editors can commission a one-off piece with absolute influence over length, questions and tone. If you commission an interview through our bespoke channel, it will only ever appear in your publication.
To what extent can I influence the interview questions?
For bespoke commissions, to the fullest extent possible – after all, this is your interview. You can lay down full parameters for the piece, determining the angle, slant, the overall theme. You can even provide us with the full list of questions to be asked.
If you’re taking a region-exclusive piece, and confirm your interest pre-interview, we’ll gladly add in your questions and tweak the piece we submit to you accordingly.
What’s the story with copyright?
INTERVIEWHUB passes over copyright on bespoke and exclusive commissions for the shelf life of the magazine/newspaper plus one calendar month.
From commission to submission, what sort of turnaround are we talking about?
We’ve been known to turn around even bespoke, exclusive copy in 24 hours. For our ready-to-buy content, often the interviews have already been conducted in the preceding few days or week, meaning that you can pick a great interview ‘off the shelf’ and have it delivered via email within minutes. So with all the quality you would associate with ITN, late copy can still be great copy.
How is it you have access to this extent of these names?
As part of ITN, one of the world’s largest media organizations, we’re a preferred partner to a range of top PRs and management agents, ensuring we’re at the front of the queue when interviewees become available.
In addition, a number of our contacts are put forward by experienced journalists who have built up great relationships with celebrities, sports stars, politicians and more.
Do I have to commission a minimum word-length?
Our ready-to-buy interview pieces generally come in around the 750-word mark, but we can add or remove copy so it’s the perfect fit for your time.
For bespoke content, you can opt for 10 or 10,000 words, it’s up to you.
What if I’m after someone I can’t find listed on the site?
We’ll happily chase prospective interview names on your behalf. If you’ve got someone in mind and would like us to turn our hand to obtaining an interview, then get in touch. And remember – no interview, no fee.
Can you help in obtaining images for the piece?
Certainly. We’ll try to provide approved images free-of-charge. Where that’s not possible, we hold partner deals with leading photo agencies in the UK and can obtain as much as 70% off listed image prices.
How do you generate client coverage?
INTERVIEWHUB is an industry-wide resource that goes out to over 3,000 commissioning editors, each of them looking for strong, current, engaging interview content for their publications.
Our syndication arm alone encompasses over 300 lifestyle and entertainment titles, all ready to offer massive exposure in regional and specialist local press.
But whether producing syndicated or bespoke content, our process is simple. We showcase to editors the names presented to us by PRs, agents and publicists, assemble interest, then produce a requested portfolio of titles for the interviewee’s representatives.
When approved, we ask for a short interview slot, then produce a stimulating, engaging and reader-provoking piece.
