FOREWORD The 2022 edition of O’Dwyer’s Directory of Public Relations Firms contains listings of public relations firms and public relations departments of advertising agencies worldwide. Readers should cross-reference the directory with the “Find a PR Firm” database on odwyerpr.com for the latest updates to listings as well as newly-added firms not found in the printed directory. The rankings of PR firms are intended to allow the reader to draw rough conclusions regarding growth year over year. Only firms that list clients are included in the rankings. Outside CPAs of the firms were asked to do a “special report” on the figures involved (see page 6 for complete rules). While not the same as a full audit, such a report, also referred to as an “agreed-upon-procedure,” carries the full endorsement of the CPA firms. The rankings should be regarded as an expression of the directory’s opinion, rather than a statement of fact. The rankings are only intended to be approximations in the directory’s judgment of a firm’s standing within the industry, and are not warranted to comply with any specific objective standards. The directory’s geographical index reflects the fact that many PR firms operate from multiple office locations. This sorting is carried over into the PR specialty index which identifies firms with skills in 26 areas such as beauty and fashion, food and beverage, healthcare, investor relations, professional services, sports and entertainment, technology, and travel. Articles in this year’s directory address hiring a PR firm and the ins and outs of PR firm mergers and acquisitions. The last section of the directory, an exclusive cross-client index, lets you look up a company and determine its outside PR counsel. The editors of the directory thank all the PR firms for their cooperation in providing data for the rankings as well as their listings of accounts, PR professionals, addresses, etc. We believe the availability of fuller information about the PR counseling industry will help clients who seek to employ firms and will help the industry to grow faster.

PReativity PR has always wanted creativity. But today it needs a whole creative department. By integrating our creative, digital and production departments into our PR practice, we design more provocative pitches that succeed when traditional efforts get lost in the crowd. And we get more proactive, helping brands build their reputation through compelling storytelling and innovative video. It’s a more comprehensive approach to communications from a single PR partner. And a more creative way to reach a world that no longer responds to the same old thing.

How to Hire a PR Firm: The Corporate View by Fraser P. Seitel, President of Emerald Partners and former Senior VP for Public Affairs at The Chase Manhattan Bank.

relationship then by your initial silence, you condone this behavior. And you deserve to be gouged further, as surely you will be. 6) Beware the management audit. The first thing any self-respecting PR consultant wants to do is “get to know” the organization by interviewing the senior management team. Resist this request whenever possible. First, top executives are busy and don’t have time to be interviewed by every new outsider hired to consult the company. Second, some consultants use the “management audit” as a guise to get to higher ranking executives for future considerations. So while there’s nothing wrong in concept with first researching the beliefs and aspirations of senior management, you, as the firm’s public relations professional and conscience of the organization – not to mention sponsor of the consultant, – should approach the “management audit” with caution or at least question its necessity. 7) Don’t leap for the big “name.” There are an awful lot of published authors, former congressmen, media personalities, and quasi-celebrities running around masquerading as “public relations consultants.” In many cases their specialty is who they know, not what they know. Nothing wrong with being “connected” but...sometimes people of this ilk who claim they are “plugged in” may well have had the “plug” pulled when they left office. Much better than hiring a former or quasi-anything as a PR consultant is retaining a firm in whom you have confidence and with whom you are familiar and comfortable. Indeed, many veteran consultant-users suggest that “personal chemistry” between the client and the consultant is an eminently more meaningful measure than the name recognition or celebrity status of the advisor. 8) Buy creativity. Just as you don’t want to buy a consulting firm for its name or hire someone you can’t stand, neither should you dish out hard-earned corporate money for mediocre advice. In other words, avoid the “shelf shill” the consultant whose every answer is safe, bland, and straight off-the-shelf, having been used many times before. You have the right to insist that you not be “peddled” the research, analysis, or solutions used for other clients; what quality improvement guru W. Edwards Deming called, “instant-pudding answers.” Rather, hire creativity. You and your staff can provide “safe” counsel to management. You hire a consultant to bring you a different, more creative perspective from which you can reach a more thoughtful conclusion. 9) Insist on “social media” inclusion. Communicating via social media -- Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Youtube, TikTok, WeChat, WhatsApp and so on -- has become commonplace in the practice of public relations. While some firms “specialize” in social media, the fact is that communicating via social media -- Facebook and Twitter 92

and Instagram and Snapchat and Youtube and all the rest -- has become commonplace in the practice of public relations. Therefore, a social media component must be included in every agency representation pitch. So insist on it. 10) Resist the “waffler.” The worst advice a consultant can offer is “waffling” advice counsel that yings and yangs but never commits to a specific point of view. “On the one hand, you might do this...but on the other hand...,” etc. Advice like this just isn’t worth the money. PR consultants must stand for something. Make them commit to a point of view. How else can you find out how good they are? The kind of thumb-sucking analysis that leads to over-prudence and a risk-adverse paralysis isn’t something you should buy. 10) Beware “hidden extras.” Keep your eyes open and your wallet closed to the “nose-under-the-tent” phenomenon that enables a consultant, once through the corporate door, to rack up additional revenues through the sale of extra services such as special reports, extraordinary research, and seconding outside experts to assist. Occasionally, services outside the parameters of the consulting contract might well be advisable. But these should be discussed in advance of contract signing, so both sides understand the nature of the agreement. 11) Make demands. You’ve hired the consultant for a reason. Maybe he or she thinks better than you do, and you are paying for the privilege of using the consultant’s brain. So use it often. Call frequently for advice and counsel. Make consultants know that you’re depending on them and plan to get what you’re paying for. Make a habit of talking to all consultants at least once every couple of weeks. If a consultant takes you for granted he’ll never produce. By the same token, a consultant who is unsure about what the client wants will also fall short. Rather, as one design consultant put it, you want to be the client the consultant thinks about at 10 o’clock at night. 12) Quickly disengage. Finally, don’t be reluctant to fire a consultant. Sometimes the client and consultant just don’t click or you overestimated the potential of the assignment or the relationship. If you find the consultant offers neither increased brain power nor inspired creativity and also isn’t especially thrilling to be around, there’s no shame in quickly disengaging. In addition, keep your eyes open about “cancellation clauses” at the start of a PR consultant relationship. Many firms insist on cancellation notices of two to six months and stipulate as much in their contracts. Suggest instead a one-month cancellation clause be adopted. By relying on rules like these dozen, you can help ensure that the counsel you receive is well worth what you pay for it.

Ten Top Reasons to Get a PR Agency Valuation

C

by Rick Gould, CPA, M.S., J.D., Managing Partner, Gould+Partners

ontrary to the belief of many prospective sellers, firms are not valued at a multiple of “net revenues.” I was recently called by a client saying he read that firms with 25 percent operating profit may be valued at three times revenues. He was ecstatic, thinking that his $4 million firm is now worth $12 million. He was also told if the agency had an operating profit of 25 percent (his was 26 percent), the seller could get half the value, $6 million, at closing, for his $4 million PR agency. I assured him that, in my educated opinion, no buyer would ever offer terms that favorable. I have been valuing PR firms for more than twenty years, initially as the CPA firm for many seller firms, and then when I started my own M&A firm, Gould+Partners, in 2001. Valuing PR agencies is a complex process. It takes financial expertise, knowledge of the M&A marketplace, and an understanding of how buyers create offers/term sheets. There is no exact science in valuing a PR firm. Every valuation is different. PR is a business in which both actual financial performance, recast for many adjustments, and several intangibles, will determine value. Items such as relationships with clients, depth of second tier of management, specialties, and fee levels may also impact value. There is generally an element of subjectivity in valuing a firm, but there certainly are objective rules and guidelines that a professional who values PR firms should use. In addition, there is extensive review work performed prior to doing the actual valuation report. Every PR firm has its unique components. In today’s earn-out model, a majority of the value will be in future performance. Term sheets, which are presented by buyers to sellers for the acquisition of the seller firm, are customized based on several factors: 1. Recasted operating profit for the past three full years, plus current interim period operating profit for the current year. 2. Net revenue (fees + markups) growth for the same periods. 3. Net worth of the firm as of sale date. 4. Working Capital (current assets less current liabilities) position as of sale date. 5. Other intangible factors, such as second-tier management, quality of staff, quality of clients, office lease, client contracts in place, what percentage largest clients comprise of the total client portfolio and other factors, are all considered when a buyer prepares a term sheet. The goal is that the terms are fair for both the seller and the buyer. There is no cut-and-dried statement that can be made about how a buyer values a seller. PR agency valuations require a detailed analysis of financials, profitability benchmarks, client net revenues, employees compensation, utilization, and several other important factors that influence the value of your firm. Although they can be time consuming—and hiring a qualified outside organization to perform the valuation can be an additional expense for your firm—PR business valuations are well worth the resources required to complete them. While having a thorough understanding of your firm’s value is a good idea, there are several specific circumstances when it is particularly beneficial to get an accurate PR firm valuation. 1. Potential Sale. When contemplating putting your PR firm on the market, knowing how much your firm is worth can help you tremendously when determining an asking price for your business and deciding how much you will accept from a buyer.

2. Potential Merger of Two or More Firms. A firm valuation is a valuable resource to have on hand when considering the merger of multiple firms. Again, knowing the value of your firm will help to ensure that a fair and reasonable transaction takes place should the firm merge with another firm. 3. Potential Acquisition. Having a comprehensive firm valuation can also provide valuable information and insight when large and small opportunities for growth come along, such as an acquisition. 4. Phantom Stock Plan (Contract Equity). Retaining key executives is a high priority for most firms. Having a Phantom Stock plan will necessitate a current valuation to illustrate to the executives the worth of their shares upon partial or complete sale of the firm. 5. Partner Buy-In. When adding partners to the firm, knowing your company’s worth is necessary in order to ensure that your new partners pay a fair buy-in price for their shares. 6. Partner Buy-out. In order to ensure a fair transaction takes place when a partner buy-out takes place, knowing a firm’s value is key. The valuation model for a partner buy-out is different than for the sale of a firm. 7. Partner Split-Up. When firm partners split up and potentially divide firm assets, understanding the value of your firm is imperative to reach an equitable settlement. 8. Borrowing Power. Any substantial loan request from a bank or other third-party may require an independent valuation. 9. Divorce. Whether a divorce is amicable or not, knowing the worth of your organization is a safe bet when you go into negotiations. Understanding how much the business you worked hard to build is worth can help ensure that a fair divorce settlement is reached. 10. Estate Planning. When organizing your estate and creating a succession plan for your business, it’s important to have an accurate business valuation on hand. This will help you with tax planning and assist you in determining who should ultimately inherit your financial interest in the firm. There is no “rule of thumb.” Every valuation is different. There are many moving parts. There are items that may add or subtract from the calculated value. And there are many intangibles that impact the ultimate valuation. For example, top- and bottom-line trends, sudden loss of major clients, death of an owner who is a rainmaker, a key VP leaving and taking a major client. Here Is What I Recommend when you are considering a valuation: 1. Connect with the person who may do the valuation. 2. Ask for his or her education credentials, such as degrees & certifications, university teaching etc. 3. Ask for his or her cost range. 4. Ask how long will it take to finalize the valuation report. 5. Ask for his or her references. 6. Call the references and ask the following: •Was there value? •Was it timely? •Did they receive high-quality service? •Was the cost in line with the quote? If you have a need for a valuation do your homework. Interview the firms that provide this service, specifically the person who will do the valuation. Determine which firm and individual will give you the highest quality of service and product for a fair price.

10 Myths About PR Firms Being Acquired by Art Stevens, Managing Partner of The Stevens Group, comprised of consultants to the PR agency profession and focusing on mergers, acquisitions and management consulting

W

hether you’re actively considering the sale of your PR firm, or it’s just a vague idea that’s been percolating at the back of your mind for awhile, it’s important to have realistic expectations before pursuing a deal in earnest. Because delusional beliefs about the acquisition process can occasionally preclude the most opportunistic of transactions, separating fact from fiction is a prerequisite. Here are 10 of the most common misperceptions that PR firm CEOs hold about selling their companies: 1. MYTH: I’ll lose all my autonomy. TRUTH: You’ll actually have a big say in what happens during and after the integration of your firm into the buyer’s organization. The success of the deal depends on it. Your role will substantially change, but remember the buyer is not only purchasing your firm, but also your wisdom. Your opinion matters. 2. MYTH: My firm will remain as a silo within the buyer’s firm. TRUTH: It’s possible that a buyer will elect to preserve your practice as a wholly owned, standalone operation. However, in our 13 years of advising both buyers and sellers of PR firms, we can attest that it’s more likely that your firm is being purchased as a strategic investment because of everything it brings to the table. However, the onus is on the seller to expectations clear to the buyer – both verbally and in writing – at the outset of the transaction to ensure a true “meeting of the minds.” This might involve interviewing past PR firm CEOs acquired by the buyer. 3. MYTH: I’m better off waiting to sell until my firm reaches $X in revenue. TRUTH: History proves there is no magic number required for a successful transaction. Whether your annual revenues are $300,000 or $40 million, buyers are looking for firms that complement their organization strategically, not only monetarily. Even if you were to pick some specific revenue goal as a sale prerequisite, you may never get there on your own. Make an honest assessment of your chances of reaching your peak revenue as compared to how those chances might improve with the help of the right buyer. 4. MYTH: My firm would need to be twice as big before anybody would be interested in buying it. TRUTH: Even through organic growth and diligent new-business initiatives, not every PR firm CEO possesses the business acumen to grow a firm 15-20 percent or more every year. Billings must grow for revenues to grow, and staffing growth is contingent upon those revenues. So waiting five, seven or 10 years to reach some hypothetical “critical mass” could be wishful thinking, and you might miss out on a rare opportunity to sell to the right buyer based upon the realities of your business now. 5. MYTH: If I sell my firm, my clients will leave me. TRUTH: Generally, most clients are supportive of mergers – provided that you’re honest with them about your motivations, and that you can assure them that they’ll continue to receive the same high level of service they’ve come to expect. Of course, there are few guarantees in life, and some

94

client attrition is a natural part of any service business. But don’t let that concern become an insurmountable obstacle to pursuing selling your firm. 6. MYTH: After I sell, I’ll be stuck at the buyer’s firm forever. TRUTH: Your contract will be very specific about upholding your obligation to fulfill a finite tenure at the buyer’s firm to receive your full earnout from the sale. A period of three or four years is common. 7. MYTH: A buyer will always pay the asking price for my firm. TRUTH: Buyers know the marketplace like the backs of their hands, and it’s the marketplace itself that dictates the selling price, not some supposed valuation prepared by you or your CPA. Unlike the real estate industry, “bidding wars” rarely happen in the PR business, and a seller who remains unrealistically firm on price based on some “accounting trick” valuation strategies may find his or her firm being repeatedly bypassed by potential buyers. 8. MYTH: After being my own boss for so long, I could never report to someone else again. TRUTH: Following a sale or merger, the success of the combined firm is contingent upon the personal chemistry between buyer and seller. Many sellers have enjoyed rewarding careers after resuming the role of employee in the buyer’s firm. 9. MYTH: I don't have to worry about my senior-level people. TRUTH: To a buyer, your firm’s key assets are its client roster and its management team. A buyer wants assurance that your senior-level managers are on board with the sale, and that you’ve done everything to keep them fulfilled. It’s not uncommon for a seller to incorporate compensation guarantees for certain key performers into the sale agreement as a retention incentive. It’s equally common for a buyer to want to continue to compensate and reward top performers in the same way you did. 10. MYTH: We’ve got decent billings, but my firm isn’t profitable enough to attract a potential buyer. TRUTH: Profit is not the highest-ranking criterion for a successful acquisition. Any successful for-profit company must be able to demonstrate a consistent track record of profitability to remain in business and to attract a buyer. With regard to PR firms, the actual profit margin is less important than other factors, such as strategic synergy, client roster and the quality of your management team. The Bottom Line Like most PR firm CEOs, you’ve undoubtedly poured your heart and soul into your business, and the decision to relinquish ownership of it is not one to be made hastily. And if you’ve never sold a business before, having a trusted advisor at your side throughout the process can be invaluable. When it comes to reaping maximum rewards from all that you’ve invested in your company over the years, always remember that an educated seller is a wise seller. Don’t allow erroneous preconceived notions to thwart you from reaching the next stage of your professional life.

Employees: 6. Founded: 2011. Agency Statement: Your business, articulated. Your impact, magnified. We know your industry, your terminology, and your clients in the commercial real estate, financial services, cannabis and related industries. There’s no ramp-up with Team Akrete. We deliver the most senior team with the deepest expertise of any agency team in the nation within these industries of focus. Our clients can trace significant business results and closed deals to our services including content creation, public relations, marketing and social media services. We aren’t all things to all industries; we are a specialized team that delivers results because we live and breathe these industries all day long. We also partner regularly with other more generalist agencies to deliver stellar results, many times coming in as pinch hitters or ghostwriters who “get it.” No content is too complex; we understand our audiences, how they relate to one another and who is selling to whom. As such, we can combine offerings that are more than the sum of their parts. As part of our core focus on real estate and the built environment, we also offer deep experience promoting and developing marketing for proptech, architecture, construction, financing, brokerage, investment management and other related disciplines. We have experience in all property types including traditional sectors like office, industrial, retail, hotel, healthcare and multifamily—as well as specialized sub-sectors like workforce housing, medical office, manufactured housing communities, cold storage and self-storage. Our cannabis practice has included vertically integrated companies, a social equity business accelerator, equipment manufacturers and ancillary services providers like construction and accounting firms in the Chicago and Boston areas. Our cannabis industry newsletter is a popular way to stay informed, and we actively support other women-owned and minority-owned businesses in this space. Key professionals include Margy Sweeney, founder & CEO, and leaders including Patricia Agos, Sophie Bartolotta, Abby Carr, Kelly Davis, Brian Greenberg, Amanda Hargrove, Jennifer Harris, Lisa Karel, Leslie Kaufman, Jackie Keane, Donna McSorley, Catherine Mini, Michelle Pittman, Becky Reno, Mireille Rosselli, Daisy Simmons, Nicole Stenclik, Morgan Sweeney, Conah Targett-Jones and Aimee Val.

FINN PARTNERS continued conversations of our day. When Peter Finn founded FINN Partners 10 years ago, his vision was to build a world-class, best-place-to-work agency with a heart and conscience, that any major client around the world would be proud to have as a partner. At that time, it was an idea, an experiment to see if the company, guided by a set of core values, could grow into a leading marketing communications agency. 10 years later, in the wake of a global pandemic, racial strife, cultural division and business tumult, Peter’s original vision has not only been realized; it has accelerated. Thanks to the agency’s values-driven culture, category-leading expertise, and independent model powered by hands-on service and worldwide scale, FINN has achieved record growth and global powerhouse status — with revenues up 49% ending 2021 with fees of $162.2MM. Our agency’s purpose-built model is needed now more than ever, with industries and societies experiencing massive upheaval. FINN’s values-centric culture has been rocket fuel for the agency’s growth: serving as a magnet for clients in need of trusted counsel, employees in search of upward career mobility and meaning, and a haven for entrepreneurs eager to tap into the financial stability and global scale of a top independent agency with values they admire, while retaining their sense of autonomy. Our core values are infused throughout our culture and guide everything we do: •Work Hard, Play Nice •Collaborate •Amaze •Take Risks •Commit to DEI •Create a Best Place to Work Make a Difference in the World With more than 1,000 professionals in the Americas, Europe and Asia, we are ONE FINN, united by a shared vision, unwavering values, and a relentless commitment to driving positive change, for our people, our clients, and our world.

Agency Statement: Defining communications broadly to include digital, content marketing, thought leadership as well as traditional PR, The Hoffman Agency knows how to differentiate brands and deliver air cover for sales. With heritage in the technology sector, the firm’s work today cuts across a range of industries. While campaigns vary by client and industry, all share one theme: the creation of content that reflects the tenets of storytelling. This means developing narratives that prompt journalists to write and target audiences to read—a far cry from the “corporate speak” that satisfies internal stakeholders. Toward this end, the firm conducts storytelling workshops for internal communicators, executives and employees. For clients with global needs, the company operates in Asia Pacific, Europe and the United States. Unlike traditional agencies handicapped by their silo structure, The Hoffman Agency applies a collaborative approach to implementing multi-country campaigns (don’t worship individual office P/L). This leverage of content and thinking across geographies ultimately generates better results.

Founded: 2005. Agency Statement: Idea Grove is a unified PR and marketing agency that helps technology and e-commerce companies “Grow With TRUST,” turning skeptical prospects into true believers at a time when brand credibility is at a premium. Our trust-centered approach to brand strategy, public relations, web design, content marketing and HubSpot consulting creates durable brands that can succeed across economic cycles and during periods of rapid change. Our “Grow With TRUST” offering incorporates the acronym TRUST, representing our core solutions for clients, including: T - Third-Party Validation. People want to hear what other people say about you, not what you say about yourself. This includes the news media, influencers, analysts, experts and— most importantly — your customers. Idea Grove can help you acquire third-party validation from each of these sources, and then feature it prominently across all your marketing touchpoints. R - Reputation Management. It’s critical to listen and respond to what customers, employees and others are saying about you on social media, including sites such as Glassdoor and product review sites. You must identify issues and correct errors quickly or your reputation will precede you with prospects — and not in a good way. Idea Grove can help. U - User Experience. From your design, navigation and site speed to your website copy and trust badges, how visitors view your website has a lot to do with whether or not they will want to do business with you. Don’t skimp on their experience. Idea Grove conceives the websites we create as comfortable, inviting homes that will make buyers want to explore and stick around a while. S - Search Presence. When people search for your brand on Google, think of the first page of results they see as your second homepage. Are your Google listings up to snuff? What other websites come up when visitors search for you? On average, only 30 percent of your branded search queries end up in a visitor landing on your website. We’ll help you with the other 70 percent — as well as your overall search presence. T - Thought Leadership. Sharing interesting and helpful information with those who come across your brand online is one of the best ways to build trust. It shows you have more to offer the world than a widget to sell. For top of the funnel audiences, the key is to talk about your ideas more and your product less — and Idea Grove loves to make our clients look smart.

Employees: 20. Founded: 1991. Agency Statement: Pollock Communications is an independent PR and marketing communications agency that offers cutting-edge expertise in traditional and social media, virtual and live events and trade shows, foodservice, school foodservice and retail support, target influencer engagement, crisis management, third-party alliance building, and science activation for food, beverage, health, wellness, and lifestyle clients. We keep our finger on the pulse of the latest health and wellness trends through our annual What’s Trending in Nutrition survey conducted in partnership with Today’s Dietitian. Our survey research generates media coverage in leading consumer food and nutrition publications and garners placements for our clients. We leverage the survey insights to align clients with news-making trends and inform their strategies to develop and execute impactful and successful communications campaigns. Pollock pioneered communications for the functional food movement, creating some major food trends including making tea the healthy drink of millennials and making chocolate a healthy indulgence. Most recently, Pollock won numerous industry awards for its #MakeMilkMoments digital campaign driving milk nostalgia, enjoyment and consumption for American Dairy Association North East. We positioned Moon Cheese as the perfect snack to garner national media coverage, awareness and sales. On behalf of the Tea Council of the USA, the agency engaged millennials through a creative, award-winning social media campaign that inspired tea lovers to share their #IndividualiTEA, resulting in an increase in social followers and increased awareness for National Hot Tea Month and tea benefits among a key target. For the Cranberry Marketing Committee, Pollock harnessed the power of social media to capitalize on Friendsgiving, the trendy millennial holiday, to break through the digital noise and reinvent the cranberry. For more than 25 years, we have been powering change for Fortune 100 food and beverage companies and global commodity foods, working to direct, shape and amplify their health and wellness stories. By strategically targeting and influencing food policymakers, traditional and social media, retail professionals and the healthcare community, Pollock delivers B2B and B2C results that change perceptions and protect and enhance a brand’s position in the market. In addition to PR practitioners and marketers, our staff includes media-savvy registered dietitians who are often quoted in consumer outlets like Cosmopolitan and Parade because they can address health & nutrition issues that are top-of-mind for today’s print, broadcast, and online journalists. Pollock Communications has built a broad network of influential spokespeople, including media registered dietitians, celebrity chefs, social media celebrities, medical doctors and scientists, who are available and ready to deliver key messages for a variety of our clients in broadcast, print and social media. We believe in pushing boundaries, breaking barriers and asking, “what if?” We diligently do our homework to develop an executable, strategic plan that delivers measurable results...every time.

REDPOINT

85 Broad St., c/o WeWork, New York, NY 10004 212/229-0119; miranda@redpointmarketingpr.com redpointmarketingpr.com Travel, tourism, hospitality, destinations, hotels, resorts, cruise lines, associations, attractions, services. Employees: 10. Founded: 2002. Agency Statement: Redpoint is a full-service agency with deep roots in travel, tourism, and hospitality. We got our start back in 2002 as a PR firm, but we’ve grown since then to offer a range of related services including website design, digital marketing, social media marketing, graphic design, consulting, and training. We confess, however, that PR runs through our veins, so image management and brand development are always at the forefront of our client programs. A passion for results ALSO runs through our veins, indeed, it’s in our very name (the composite of “Results, Energy, Direction, and a to-the-POINT focus”). Results come in many forms, more clicks, coverage, shares, eyes, exposure, and revenue are among the most frequently sought. But not all results are tallied in clear, tangible quantities. We are often asked to shift the perception of a brand. Or develop a shoulder season. Or inspire a company’s staff to be more gracious to its guests. Or evaluate complex situations to make decision-making simple. We’re versatile in choosing the right tools to get the job done. And while our patient determination shepherds clients all the way to the long-term goal line, we make sure there are plenty of short-term wins along the way. Bottom line: we seek, craft, and share compelling stories with the audiences that matter most to hotels, resorts, cruise lines, destinations, attractions, travel services, associations, and more. And while we serve clients around the world, we are especially well known as leading PR and marketing experts for New England and Canadian travel brands.
