Six pieces of earned coverage across New Zealand’s main news and business outlets in 2026, with a combined potential reach of about 1.5 million people.

Where these numbers come from

Reach figures are the outlets’ own published readership and listenership, as set out in the post-campaign report prepared for PowerHub by Wils & Co. Media in June 2026. Media coverage is not an endorsement, and nothing in it forms part of your supply agreement with PowerHub.
