Questions

Why do I see "No open briefs yet"?+

Briefs only appear from Reporters you're connected with, and only while a brief is open. If it's empty, connect with travel media who cover your destinations — use the Find Reporters button to start.

Who sees my response?+

The reporter who posted the brief sees your name and your message. Pitch the access, trips, interviews or imagery you can genuinely offer.

Can I change a response after sending it?+

Yes. While the brief is still open your card shows an Edit link — reopen it, update the text and save with Update response.

What should I put in a pitch?+

Keep it specific to the angle — a property, a press trip in their window, an interview, or imagery. RepBud is designed to assist, not replace, your professional judgement.
