CRISIS COMMUNICATIONS AND MANAGEMENT
A crisis can come in any form or shape and often happens without warning. The greatest mistake that most individuals, businesses and organizations make is not having a basic crisis communications plan in place. The first 72 hours of any crisis are critical and if you are not proactive in getting your message out, the media and others will set the narrative and you will suffer the consequences.
When working with our clients to develop crisis communications plans, we ensure a comprehensive approach.
Among our services:

COMMUNITY RELATIONS
Forging ties within the community is a key component of any public relations campaign, as well as good business sense. A comprehensive community relations strategy makes employees proud to work for you and customers proud to do business with you. And by promoting your involvement with a good cause, you are not only making that cause stronger – you are helping to educate the public about their work.
We have helped our clients develop, initiate and strengthen community and philanthropic ties by developing relationships – as well as expanding awareness through social media, traditional media, internal communications, awards ceremonies, fundraising and educational initiatives.

BLOGGER ENGAGEMENT
There are more than 70 million blogs worldwide. Mention on a blog can reach more people than traditional media. A positive review of a product or service on a blog often has a greater consumer impact than millions spent on traditional advertising. Our team is skilled at reaching out to bloggers to build strategic relationships between brands and influencers across the blogosphere, from consumer to business to technology to trade blogs. These relationships mean our clients stand out and reach more than 345 million blog readers.
PRODUCT LAUNCHES
One of the major mistakes that many companies make is launching a new product with little or no planning or public relations. Many products fail because their parent companies did not create enough buzz and anticipation prior to their launch. We work months before the launch of a new product to ensure that anticipation is built for the product and that it receives enough coverage before it is officially launched so consumers not only are engaged but also are ready to buy.
Among our services:
- Planning strategies
- Blogger outreach
- Influencer outreach
- Celebrity endorsements
- Product reviews
- Media placements
TRADE SHOW STRATEGY AND IMPLEMENTATION

We will work with you to develop an overall strategy for each trade show that includes targeting attendees, media relations, social media, exhibit design, and exhibit support.
SPEAKING ENGAGEMENTS
Speaking engagements are key to building brand identity, telling a corporate story and engaging potential clients. Our team will work with you to identify key audiences for your message and to place you before them. We will help you draft your speech and train you how to deliver it. We work to place our clients as keynote speakers, roundtable panelists and breakout speakers.
