LOS ANGELES — AnotherZero, the PR and branding company founded by entrepreneur Nicolos Abelian, has been named Best PR and Branding Agency of 2026 by Best of Best Review. The recognition follows the company's No. 123 ranking on the 2026 Inc. 5000, Inc.'s annual list of America's fastest-growing private companies. AnotherZero posted 2,388 percent revenue growth over three years.
AnotherZero was founded in 2020 and has since worked with more than 15,318 businesses in over 30 countries. It holds a 4.9 out of 5 TrustScore on Trustpilot from 975 reviews, 98 percent of them five-star.
What AnotherZero Does
AnotherZero gets businesses featured in the news. A business owner completes a two-minute intake. AnotherZero's writers then research the business and write a custom feature article of 800 to 1,000 words about it. The client reviews the draft and can request unlimited revisions, and nothing is published until the client approves it. The finished article is then published in the news outlet the client selected, from more than 60 options.
The service costs $97. Traditional PR agencies commonly charge thousands of dollars a month on retainer. If AnotherZero can't get a client featured in the outlet they chose, the client gets a full refund.
Clients also get the right to display "As Seen On" logos from the outlet that featured them, along with a custom banner and a social media kit. Most use them on their websites, ads, sales pages and social profiles.
The Experiment That Started It
Before AnotherZero, Abelian built a Los Angeles local-services company to $35 million in annual revenue. The idea for AnotherZero came from a test he ran there.
He added "As Seen On" media logos to the company's marketing and changed nothing else. The ads, the offer and the price all stayed the same. The company's close rate rose from 12.4 percent to 23.1 percent. Its Google Ads return on ad spend jumped from 1.75x to 18.86x. Revenue grew 163 percent in 90 days.
"Nothing about the business changed," Abelian said. "Same ads, same offer, same price. The only difference was that a stranger could now see someone else had written about us. That's when I realized credibility isn't part of the sale. It is the sale."
He started AnotherZero to give smaller businesses that same advantage. Until then, that kind of media credibility mostly belonged to companies that could afford a PR firm on retainer.
"Most business owners are great at what they do and invisible to everyone who hasn't met them yet," Abelian said. "People Google you before they ever call you. You can't vouch for yourself. Someone else has to."
Why Press Coverage Matters More in the Age of AI
The way customers check out a business has changed. Before they buy, most search the company on Google, read its reviews, and more and more often ask an AI assistant such as ChatGPT, Gemini or Perplexity. Those tools build their answers from what third parties have published about a business. A company with no press coverage gives them almost nothing to go on.
"AI can't recommend a business nobody has written about," Abelian said. "Getting featured used to be about looking credible once someone found you. Now it's how you get found in the first place."
A published feature gives a business an indexed article about it on a news site and a backlink to its own website. It also gives search engines and AI tools an outside source to cite when someone asks about the company.
Recognition
Along with the Best PR and Branding Agency of 2026 award and its Inc. 5000 ranking, AnotherZero has been featured more than 1,000 times in the media, including in Forbes and on FOX, NBC, ABC and CBS. The company is BBB Accredited A+. USA News first profiled Abelian in July 2025.
What Clients Say
AnotherZero's Trustpilot reviews come from consultants, coaches, authors, agency owners, e-commerce brands and local service businesses. Reviewers most often mention fast response times, around-the-clock support, the quality of the writing, and how quickly they went from sign-up to published. Several say they had used a PR company before and compared the two.
"They are definitely my go to PR company," one reviewer wrote.
