More Information

Our approach is different than other public relations firms in one key aspect: we micro-target. We see little benefit in the long run to simply mass mailing a press release. We want to build go-to relationships for the brand by working with reporters who understand our clients' approach, respect their work and ideally come to them for expert advice.
