Above The Fold: The Big Themes At A Glance
We’re a US-based PR agency that supports B2B companies with media relations, content creation and social media. With a diverse client base from East Coast to West, we build campaigns that raise awareness and credibility. We’re also deeply experienced at launching brands from Europe and APAC into the American market.
PR in the USA works by raising brand awareness to become a key point of differentiation for a company when measured against competitors. Investing in a communications function early and over an ongoing period of time not only builds trust with target audiences for a B2B brand, but also greatly enhances online discoverability from buyer segments, as well as SEO and GEO benefits from backlinks and brand mentions on third-party, reputable news outlets and platforms.
For US companies seeking to boost their reputation or non-American companies seeking to enter the market with a bang, communications is a growth driver that compounds over time. It does this by reaching and impacting your audiences in a non-advertorial manner, which meets them where they consume their information.
We’re a boutique PR agency that supports a host of the world’s fast-growing brands in the US market through strategic communications campaigns. Speak with us today about how we can help your brand in the American market.
B2B brands often find that after onboarding with a medium to large PR agency, the actual work is then handed off and managed by a much more junior staff.

In addition, our founder spent half his career working in the European market, including managing Google’s press office function (agency side).
In practice, this means you’ll have a very experienced and knowledgeable team devising, managing and executing across all parts of your PR program, including media list creation, pitching to journalists and drafting of press releases.

A PR agency in the USA is an extension of a brand’s communication team and has extensive knowledge of the American market. An agency is skilled in crafting a customized PR strategy to raise awareness and trust in a company.
Nearly our entire client base has been supported with US PR. This work in media relations has included everything from launching press office functions to launching specific products as well as brands into the country, to funding round announcements.
Yes. A PR agency with US market expertise can create a unique plan to launch a brand into the American market, localize messaging and content and pitch to journalists in the USA, all aimed at raising awareness. A well-designed US PR market launch can deliver sustained awareness amongst a brand’s target audience.
The media landscape in the US differs heavily from region to region, meaning a good PR agency knows how to tailor messaging and outreach to fit distinctive regional differences. While nationally a story might resonate, in order for it to be picked up by local journalists, it needs to be authentic and localized to their audiences.
A PR team has the knowledge to craft a compelling story angle, as well as target the right national journalists at the right time. A “spray and pray” will not work. Instead, a PR team taps into topics that national media cover and aligns a brand to these issues to secure national media coverage.
Access to a more senior-level team day-to-day, instead of a bigger agency that pads its teams out with juniors who do the vast majority of the work. A boutique PR agency is structured to provide a more hands-on experience and a communications campaign that is run by seasoned, experienced PR professionals who know what works and doesn’t work. Typically, agencies of this size are also far more nimble in reacting to changing focus and PR needs too.
Yes. A good PR agency should be able to assist with international campaigns, especially those that are in English-language markets. Brands need to seek out specialist PR agencies that have expertise and media knowledge beyond just the US market.
The US market is home to a highly diverse number of sectors, meaning a PR agency will either be a generalist firm or a specialist in specific areas, such as defense, automotive and adtech. Our agency is proudly boutique in size and caters to a very wide variety of B2B industries.
Local nuances matter in PR and any strategy needs to factor these in. What might be a common phrase or concept in Boston may not be well-known in Seattle; any PR initiative needs to understand both the local audience, as well as the national. What works best is a bespoke strategy that examines and stress tests messaging to ensure it lands with local audiences.
Seek out an agency that has demonstrable US media expertise and one that can apply a strategy to what your brand wants to achieve. For the best results, work with an agency that offers senior PR team involvement, as this will help your brand to work with experienced communications professionals who know how to create a successful strategy, as well as execute it.
