If I could give zero stars
If I could give zero stars, or negative stars, I certainly would. "Scammers" are the first word I would use to describe Starlight PR. They took credit for every bit of self-promotion I did on the back-end, in an attempt to rescue my release from falling victim to their almost completely useless $4,200 promotion package.
First of all, they assigned a junior writer to craft my press release, who absolutely botched it... the writer failed to form complete sentences, and the majority of the bio/press release was entirely incoherent. I had to rewrite it as best I could, seeing as how Starlight failed to take any responsibility for the abhorrent quality when I notified them. Being on a tight release schedule, this was immensely stressful, and overall detrimental to the release of my record. After I spent ten hours rewriting the press release to give it some semblance of coherence, I sent it back to Starlight with a sharp admonishment, and in response, they began a nasty email thread, arguing with me about how great their employees are and how wonderful their work is.
At this point, I felt trapped, as I had entrusted Starlight with my first release, and had already passed their refund deadline with no other promotion strategies in place.
In our initial phone consultation, Shealin had repeatedly assured me that Starlight PR was properly equipped, and maintained the appropriate industry connections, to promote my solo instrumental acoustic guitar album. In reality, they copy/pasted the garbage press release (which I had spent so much time and energy attempting to salvage, but which in the end was like polishing a piece of trash) into ten different RAP MUSIC "blogs" and "magazines", the vast majority of which were front companies with no readership or social media following. After learning that their "ten to fifteen reviews in top blogs and magazines (like SMASH Mag and Pigeons & Planes)" actually meant them copy/pasting my press release into exactly ten fake websites which did not even rank in a google search, I furiously emailed them, to which they responded again by arguing that their services and employees are "actually VERY good".
I received ZERO organic streams, ZERO real social media follows, and almost no overall results from this $4,200 promotional campaign. The small amount of streams and TikTok follows which they generated were clearly from fake accounts, and resulted not only in ZERO engagement, but negatively affected my social media presence by cluttering it up with bots. The writers whom they hired to review my album wrote about it in such a way that indicated they had not even listened to it, and the playlists that Starlight secured for my songs included "70s, 80s, 90s Smash Hits" and a Portuguese "Guardians of the Galaxy Soundtrack Playlist". Oh, and out of the several podcast and radio interviews which they secured, the majority of them were largely centered around rap music, which was completely inappropriate for my album, and the majority of the interviewers clearly had never listened to the music, let alone prepared for the interviews, and were unable to represent the music effectively to their minuscule audiences.
On a positive note however, a couple of the radio interviews and articles were relatively well done. Publicist Kurt Beyers wrote a decent article for SMASH Mag, and an iHeart Radio syndicated show that actually seemed professionally run was a pleasant surprise. But all in all, the promotional campaign was entirely ineffective for generating new followers, streams, or any kind of engagement with the music.
95% garbage, 5% half-decent, 100% not worth a quarter of what was charged. Beware of Starlight PR.

One of a kind PR
Hello, Danny here from Ornimental.
First thing I have to say is that StarLight definitely takes action in what they say they will do. Within a couple of weeks with my first campaign, I started seeing my numbers climb up on my streaming and social platforms. However, What makes this experience so great is a quick story that happened while working with StarLight.
To make this very long story short, I was almost a victim to a scammer who impersonated StarLight using an unofficial IG account and I unfortunately got caught up in their scam to take money from their artist. When I informed StarLight about what has been going on, They responded the day after and decided to treat me with great customer service after the very stressful ordeal that had happened. I have been in the business for over a decade and no PR company has ever done anything to make me happy like they have.
Definitely want to continue working with them and I’m very glad to have already start new relationships within the teams they have taking care of my music.

Hi Danny,
Thank you for sharing this and for the trust you placed in us, especially after such a difficult situation. I’m glad you brought the impersonation issue to our attention and that the team was able to step in quickly and support you during what I know must have been a frustrating experience.
I also appreciate you recognizing that we stood behind you after the situation. Protecting the artists we work with and making sure they feel supported, not just during campaigns but when challenges come up, is something we take personally.
It means a lot coming from someone with your experience in the industry to say this stood out. We value the relationship we have started building with you and we look forward to continuing to support your releases the right way.

5 star experience
I didn't know who to trust when hiring a publicist or pr firm so many people want your money. Starlight was helpful in making sure they delivered on their service. I did one week campaign and saw over 5k views on YouTube my social media is growing. Starlight gave me a good baseline to start. 5 stars from Mr VIP to Starlight.

Your words about reliability and trust mean a great deal to us. We appreciate the chance to work with you and we will be here whenever you are ready to build on what you have started.

Hi Wavy,
Thank you for your candor and for recognizing the substance behind the work. Building real, organic growth takes time and intention, so it means a lot to hear that the results felt worthwhile and lasting.
We never aim to be the cheapest option, only one that delivers meaningful progress artists can actually see and build from. I’m glad the campaign gave you that kind of foundation.

These people are scammers
I spent $1800 on promotion (starter package + Spotify) that turned out to be absolute scam. The blogs that they place the press release with are fake (none of them have any social media following if any profiles at all), they lied about the radio station to me pretending it’s a bigger one when it turned out to be a podcast followed by 600 people. The Spotify/YT campaign is obviously botted: I suddenly had hundreds of people follow me in a single day and none thereafter and then Spotify then slashed all those botted followings from me, as well as removed my radio from my page because of the botted streams, so in the end I had zero value for my money. Chris and Therese have nothing to say to that, they just stopped responding.

Starlight PR is second to none they did more than me and my team even realized. They pushed and exposed our release in a way that just can't be matched.

The Best PR Firm in The Music Industry
Starlight PR and its team of experts surpassed expectations. We loved working with Chris, Therese, and a cast of super professional people who worked tirelessly to get MTStreets’ “Highway to Hell” single heard and his story told.
The results speak for themselves; Over 25,000 new plays on YouTube, about 75,000 new streams on Spotify, million-plus impressions via social media and mainstream media promotions, and over 15,000 new followers on Instagram. Best of all, once our 4-week campaign ended, our numbers continue to rise.
Before hiring Starlight, we read every 5-star and the 1-star review. Now we know the truth. Starlight PR is awesome. If we could give them more than 5 stars, we would. Many thanks to Starlight PR… We will be working together again soon!

I also appreciate you recognizing Chris, Therese, and the wider team. The effort that goes into making sure both the music and the story are positioned properly is something they take personally.
Your perspective on the numbers, the visibility, and the long-term lift means a lot because it shows the campaign created something sustainable. We are grateful for the partnership and look forward to building even more together on the next release.

Hi Daniel,
Thank you for sharing such an honest reflection of your experience. I’m glad the interviews and the growing media catalog gave you assets you can continue to use and helped strengthen your connection with your fan base. For independent artists, those long-term credibility pieces often become just as valuable as short-term numbers.
I also appreciate your candid note about wanting to see more growth in followers and streams. Every campaign has different variables, but your feedback is important and helps us continue refining how we guide artists on maximizing momentum beyond the placements themselves.
Most importantly, I’m glad you still found real value in the experience and the opportunities it created. We appreciate the trust you placed in us and would welcome the chance to build even further with you on a future release.
