The Visibility Lab
A monthly PR membership for founders and thought leaders who are ready to stop being invisible — and learn to pitch, get placed, and build the kind of coverage that actually compounds.
A founder told me recently she had been sitting on her brand's story for two years because she didn't know how to get it in front of the right people.
Her product was ready. Her story was there. She just didn't have the tools to do anything with it.
I've had that conversation hundreds of times. And every time, I think the same thing: the gap isn't the brand. It's visibility. And visibility is a learnable skill.
That conversation is why I built The Visibility Lab.
— Amy Bartko, Founder, chatterbox PR & MarketingPR isn't magic. It's a formula.
To build brand awareness, you have to gain visibility to earn credibility, and that achieves profitability. You can't shortcut the sequence. But you can learn it, and The Visibility Lab is where you do.
This isn't a course you forget about. This is done with you, every month, with a publicist who has been placing brands in Forbes, on Good Morning America, and in the hands of A-list celebrities for 25 years.
Two live touchpoints every month, with me in the room
Monthly live teaching session
One live session per month where I teach you the exact PR strategy that moves the needle for product brands and thought leaders. Real tactics, not theory.
Monthly office hours
One office hours session per month where I look at your actual pitch, your story, and your strategy. Submit in advance, get real feedback you can use immediately.
Pitch templates and media contacts
The exact tools I use for my full-service retainer clients. Pitch templates written for your category, media contact guidance, and the frameworks that get emails opened.
A community of founders doing it with you
You're not learning in a vacuum. The Visibility Lab puts you in a room with other founders and thought leaders who are building their visibility at the same time you are.
By month one, you'll have a pitch and know exactly who to send it to
The Visibility Lab covers the full spectrum of PR strategy across our six months together. These are the topics we come back to, build on, and apply to your brand throughout the program.
This is not theory. These are the placements Chatterbox has actually secured.

Amy Bartko
Founder, chatterbox PR & Marketing
Phoenix, AZ
Hi, I'm Amy. I've been doing this for 25 years.
I founded chatterbox PR & Marketing in 2013 and have spent the last 13 years placing lifestyle, beauty, wellness, and juvenile product brands in the media outlets that actually move the needle.
I built The Visibility Lab because I've talked to too many founders who have the brand, the story, and the drive, and just don't have the tools to do anything with it. That changes here.
From workshop attendees and long-term clients
From the workshop
"Amy's PR workshop is a masterclass in turning the mystery of media coverage into a tangible, actionable growth engine. You walk away realizing that earned media isn't just for big businesses, and you don't need a huge following to get covered. She doesn't just teach theory — she shows you the behind-the-scenes tools PR pros actually use. I left with a clear roadmap and the confidence to finally earn the recognition my brand deserves."Alexis Castorina · Bestselling Author & Founder, Cymatic Leadership
"Amy has a gift for taking a topic like PR and making it feel clear, practical, and accessible. She met everyone where they were, answered questions with patience and real expertise, and offered tools that were easy to understand and implement.

What founders ask before they enroll
Is this a course, or is Amy actually in the room with me?
Amy is live in the room with you every single month. Two touchpoints: one teaching session, one office hours. There are no pre-recorded modules collecting dust in a folder. This is done with you, not handed to you.
I'm a thought leader, not a product brand. Is this for me?
Yes. The Visibility Lab is built for both product-based brand founders and thought leaders, authors, and speakers. The curriculum covers media outreach, podcast strategy, and story positioning that applies to both.
How is this different from a full-service retainer?
A retainer is done for you. Chatterbox handles all the outreach, pitching, and placement. The Visibility Lab is done with you. Amy teaches you the strategy and tools, and you execute your own PR. It's the right fit if you're not yet at the retainer stage and want to build the foundation first.
Do you guarantee media placements?
No, and you should be skeptical of anyone who does. What I can guarantee is that you will leave each month with real tools, a real pitch, and a real strategy. Placements come from executing that strategy consistently over time.
What is the office hours format?
Members submit their pitch, their question, or their strategy challenge in advance. That pre-submission keeps the session focused and lets Amy come in with specific, useful feedback rather than general advice. No submission, no office hours spot for that month.
Can I cancel anytime?
The Visibility Lab is a 6-month commitment, since the curriculum is designed as a full arc and PR compounds over that time. After your initial 6 months, you can cancel anytime.
Your brand deserves to be seen.
Founding member pricing at $197/month, locked in for life, or join at the standard $297/month rate. If this is the thing you've been waiting for, now is the time.
