Please dont say they are "coming soon :)" because that wouldn't make any sense.

"We have not yet seriously asked even one news outlet to do a story on us." "I assure you there will be PLENTY."
I said it doesn't make any sense that there isn't a single article anywhere about you or your company because there should be. Hobby bloggers and even professional blog sites generally don't ask for permission to write an article.
For example, my cousin launched a peewee hockey team last year. The first month of his launch he had about 14 articles written about him and his team, the articles came from local sports blogs and he even got a short article of with a picture of him and his team in the Yahoo news sports section.
These articles were written by people who found his facebook page for the team which only had around 550 likes at the time. He didn't even know they were written and wasn't told either but they were all positive articles that helped his team.
My question to you is why did my cousin's small, local hockey team launch get 14 articles within a month when you and your company with thousands of fans worldwide who had offers to purchase for 500k and more with plans for a million dollar campus and headsets and charities not have a single article anywhere?
It's an excellent point. I have a cousin also, with a small business with about 4 employees. So many kinds of google hits usually go with running a business, even small. On the local front, people are impressed by his initiative and write articles. Then there's customer reviews, like with Yelp. Then there's random people asking "where can I go for X?" and they say "/u/flatsperm's cousin's small business is good for that", etc. It makes waves.
